7:23 am
for my dad's success, but i know the president likes to attack fellow americans. >> now it's getting ugly. he is attacking successful people. no, he's defending people who have been tafted by you successful people over the last ten years. trickle down doesn't work. >> the president just said he wasn't born with a silver horseshoe in his mouth. >> put there by a ferrier. >> and it was a very thinly veiled reference to romney. there is nothing wrong with being a millionaire at birth, but when you use your capitol, power and influence only to make life easier for the rest of the 1%. they called roosevelt and bobby kennedy a class traitor after his bother died.
7:24 am
when you devote your capital clearly to making your own kind more powerful -- >> another the expense of other americans. >> uh-huh. steve go ahead. >> my wife is actually a dressage champion, but not like in the -- uber-wealthy that you are talk about. and it's a lot of fun. this is the footwork that the horses would do to navigate a melee. so all of the dancing that you see are skills that would be used so they wouldn't run into other horses or get knocked over in battle. >> okay. >> that's sort of where the actual art form comes from. and i suspect that jim being a history geek would love that kind of information as well. >> steven there's like a lower class, middle class dressage --
7:25 am
>> lower cast. [ laughter ] >> what you are describing is actually -- it's a really good metaphor for america. because these super wealthy sponsors that spend ridiculous amounts on their horses treat their help like dirt -- >> not all of them. >> there is a c-celebrity dressage circuit is what you are saying? >> yeah, a lot of these people work hard and are treated badly by the wealthy. and it is a status symbol to own these horses. but i would be surprised if anything but a fraction of these high-end baseball star horses what you are talking about is making fun of the queen's rose garden and forgetting about all of the gardeners. >> all right. thank you, steve. >> would expect nothing less than mitt romney --

7:33 am
seen them dance. i don't know what you feed a horse to make the dance, but i'll give it a try. >> mitt romney is like central casting for the top 1%. isn't it an interesting election? >> here is the thing that amazing me. you are right about that of course, he has done everything wrong. he is the quintessential born on third base and thinks he hit a triple. but then these polls come out this week that this race is a dead heat. and we were saying last week all of that suddenly we wake up, and this is a very close race. whether this is a moment of him being the nominee, or people rel valuating the race we don't know yet.
7:34 am
if i were barack obama, you make up in the morning with a knot in your stomach saying where are things. >> but the white house has always said this is going to be a tight race. >> yeah, but you could almost see it in the bounce in their step as the republican primary season continued. last night i compared them to the past couple of months to having front row seats in the roman coliseum as mitt romney swatted away the weaker contestants -- it was good fun. >> and that's the thing as they say too, polls this far out. do you really think it is significant. the last one i saw was the president is up six points. >> here is why they matter -- you are right they are not wonderful predictors of what will happen in november.
7:35 am
they are accurate snapshots of the momentary psyche of the public. and it suggests to me that the public is open to a real debate about this presidential race. it is not a romp. you have a 20-point margin where there are real structural issues. this race is not game over. if you look at the calendar between now and november and you see an economy that the arc of the job numbers could be negative. the supreme court might take away health care, you can see an image developing by july or august, that gee, what has he accomplished in his first term. the alternative argument is job numbers come back, the supreme court affirms health care and he has a wonderful story to tell. >> i just posted obama's top 50
7:36 am
accomplishments. and he has accomplished out. >> there are some candidates who you say go away on vacation -- >> right. stop talking. >> and we like -- because we're partisan and we can say that we have the definitive view about this race, we see it that way, on the other hand i do talk to a fair number of democrats who say, you know, i could live with mitt romney. >> and don't underestimate obama derangement syndrome. because we have seen it in on unprecedented way, don't you? >> yeah, i think half of the world is living without any sense of history. they want to go back to precisely what brought the stuff on in the first place. i don't know what to make of it sometimes. >> obviously the president has come out and talked about speculators on wall street in the oil market.
7:37 am
you don't know anything about that do you governor? >> no, never encountered anything on wall street that gave me any concern. but to be serious for a moment i was not thrilled with that press conference and here is why. the justice department has always had the power to go after speculation. and i saw that one step beyond what was appropriate. if eric holder believes there is stuff going on in the oil markets, make the case don't tell us you are going to make the case and i wish they would make the case if it's there to be made otherwise just say what the public really needs to hear which is guys, the price of oil is something the president can't control, get over it. i hate to see the public's misunderstanding of that. >> always play fox news clips of
7:38 am
2008. >> right. that's what i would have preferred that they i do play back their own argument. understand what drives energy. he does have a really good energy policy. talk about that instead of distracting us with this pretend press conference. >> jay carney yesterday. take a listen. >> we insisted on legislation that was voted on and passed and signed into law by significant percentages of republicans in both houses. but we didn't know when they did this if they were crossing their fingers behind their backs. they either keep their word or they don't. there is an agreement in place that sets standing levels at his roaric lows. >> this is the kind of thing we're trying to govern with republicans, it's just like no we're going back on the deal. >> this -- it's hard to see or know of anything that would come out of the republican house that
7:39 am
is either honorable or fair or decent, but the white house was a little late in understanding who they were dealing with. they tried to deal with them and negotiate, which you have to try to do, but i think their negotiating strategy was to give up early on and look for goodwill on the other side which was never there. >> is that not the historic republican on democrats? >> yeah, we're too nice. and i think in particular that was the story line of this two and a half years of the white house. going back to the very first stimulus where he gave a third of it away to areas that would have very little impact. >> the main stream media -- you know mitt romney can go on a
7:40 am
television show and say john kerry only released two years of his. when john kerry released 20. >> he should be required -- i shouldn't say required -- he should be asked, requested forcefully to release them. of course he should. when i was in government i released them every year, and i was probably the only guy in the country who called my accountant and said if i play less than 30%, you're fired. the problem is now i paid more than 30%, and i called him and i said you're fired. >> even what we do know it must be astounding what he is hiding. >> i think it would be a wonderful exercise to just take his tax returns, post them online, and kind of -- let the public understand what the tax code is really all about, and then say this is why we think a
7:41 am
buffet rule makes sense. this is why we think some progressive tax code that can be simplified but make it progressive -- first and most important eliminate the ben nate is given to capital gains taxes. >> yeah. >> isn't it fair to say the people already voted for this back in 2008. >> yeah, but we lost it in 2010. we voted for it in 2008, and then the rise of the tea party was another egregious failure on our side of the aisle articulate what happened in '08 and '09. i always felt -- not all of it. there are some pieces of the tea party you could never persuade but there was a big piece that was angry at government bailouts to banks. that anger should have been funneled into something closer to where we are ideologically. >> it is the president can't come out and say this because ho
7:42 am
is dependant on these contributions for recollection? are liberals able to hope for a much more aggressive sec term? >> i don't know. i don't think that barack obama whom i don't pretend to know extraordinarily well, but he is a smart, honorable, ethical individual, his world view is not tailored to contributions. i think he had a world view that was much less reform oriented than many of us thought. >> i'm sorry to have to end with this. but your thoughts on ted nugent. [ laughter ] >> you know -- >> i mean how do -- here they go drawing these false -- this is an endorsement he sought mitt romney. >> some people are just nuts and you say let them wander out

8:31 am
the course of the last 18 19 months, the tenor of politics has started to shift in arizona. this state of mind has turned into the petri dish for every expeer r -- extreme right-wing whether it's the prison industry, women's rights employee rights guns, name it. so they have experimented here and i think the people of arizona are beginning to realize that the state is hurting because of that, not just in reputation, but in the economy, and the division that has happened among the people of arizona has deepened and i think people are starting to look a different way. decent -- a lot of decent people in arizona are beginning to see this is not the state that i want and not where we want to

go. >> absolutely. we have done shows in tucson and phoenix, and that's the energy i feel there. you mentioned immigration, romney way behind with hispanic voters and he has already started this flip flop on immigration. his advisor is now just some guy that they used to know. he is just a supporter of some sort. are people going to buy the flip flop on this? >> i don't think so i really don't believe so. and particularly the whole reason for the flip flop is this huge gap with latino voters -- >> yep. >> the magic number for republicans is 35 to 40% to get that part of the vote. i -- i see no way possible. and you have rubio and others trying to now float a version of the g-mac as to placate -- >> that almost sounds like a

8:37 am
that should be the show of the mitt romney campaign. i would like to host it again. because that is so -- to just say a word -- entitled that you are only entitled to see two years of my tax returns. >> i think the whole disclosure thing, how much you are paying how much you have, i think that's a legitimate issue, and people running for the highest office should have the wherewithal to present that to the american people. that's part of the process. part of the secrecy too is him talking about -- well when he was having that high deep pocket done for fund raiser where he said, you know, well i have a plan how to deal with these tax cuts for the millionaires we're going to after hud and gut
8:38 am
education, and that's how we're going to find the money to pay for this but i can't talk about it, because that won't play well out there with the american people, but trust me that's where i'm going. that kind of secrecy and wink and nod in this campaign is -- is scary to begin with, but, you know, enough is getting out about this whole operation of romney's which is built on secrecy and built on understandings among the very powerful -- >> apparently none of this matters, because according to ann romney it's their turn. >> yeah. >> oh, boy. >> i was reading the statistic. in 1980 9% of the wealth was concentrated on the 1%. right now 25% is concentrated in the 1%. >> wow. >> i think their turn has come. it has stayed and he -- he is
