he is an elitist, he speaks nonsense when we talks america first, and i think what is so frustrating is that it is mitt romney's way of getting public nomination is to describe him as a severe conservative and claim he is going to be close down planned parenthood. and i would hope all of that is a bunch of laws. and i think maybe it is. i just don't think our politics are served well by people who don't stick with what they believe. it's hard to make a choice when the guy is all over the map and lying about it. but i just -- you know, i think a guy that is willing to lie as

easily as he was, that's not the person we want as president. >> we hear this every election cycle. they always have to tack back to the center. isn't it going to be exceedingly difficult for mitt romney? he has not only gone so far to the right but also have this flip flopping etch-a-sketch problem in the first place. what do they do? >> bill clinton is now advising barack obama that it is not going to work if you try to portray mitt romney as having no core. underscore that he was a severe conservative and go through all of his positions. i think that's smart politically. the problem i see when you look at mitt romney he doesn't look or sort of act like the sort of extremist right-wing, wing nut that say a newt gingrich or a -- oh or maybe even a -- you know a mitch mcconnell clearly

are. i think this is something that frightens me for democrats is mitt romney does come across -- he goofy, but he comes across as being moderate and smooth and well-spoken. so i'm not sure the ability to pin him as this raving right-wing lunatic is going to fit with what most americans see. having said that i think some combination of this is a guy who has been all over the map, and will do anything he can to get the nomination and then the general election. in that sort of person who is so willing to put their finger in the wind, but has no core. >> yeah. >> and i don't think anybody knows. >> yeah, well, it depends on what time it is. here is marco rubio.

>> for millions of americans today life is worse than it was ten years ago because he doesn't know what he is doing. >> that is patently untrue. >> maybe that's the thing i should give democrats and progressives a lot of solace. you can always count on republicans having no idea how to tell the truth about president obama. and i think it's easy for americans to believe that barack obama inherited a complete mess. he has dealt with all sorts of problems that were unimaginable ten or 15 years ago. we are creating jobs, not as fast as everybody want but the severity of the depression was so much worse. and when you say barack obama has no idea what he is doing. that just doesn't fly. you can disagree or don't like

his policies but this is a guy who is very smart and articulate who certainly knows where he stands. i think republican argument is absurd. and if marco rubio wants to make that the center of the argument go for it. >> and because he sounds like he is 12. >> yeah. >> you have this rnc spokesman that says, yeah they are bush's policies, just you know, more. and as axelrod said we have seen this movie. >> yeah, americans have figured out that you can't just trickle down economic wealth. so i think americans inherently understand that you just can't continue to give -- shower benefits on the 1% and expect

that that will help raise the rest of the economy. the debate becomes what sort of policies can we put out there that will spark economic growth and what not, but again, to the extent that republicans are defined by themselves we just want to give tax breaks to the wealthiest because that will turn everything around, that won't work. and the question is can president obama and the democrats say here is the balance between fairness and here is how we'll raise the safety class so if americans fair severe problems we are a society that takes the worse circumstances. >> jon huntsman who once called mitt romney completely unelected, has since endorsed romney. but he said the other morning on

tv. you can talk about the flip flopping and other things if you wrap yourself up in too many pledges that eliminates what you need to do to some extent. that's a guy endorsing mitt romney. >> and even marco rubio when he endorsed mitt romney and it looked like he was one of those hostage videos. >> right. >> part of the problem the republicans have is they don't know how to endorse mitt romney because they don't know what he stands for. >> yeah. it all sounds like a okay. >> all right. well, the train is leaving the station and i have no choice so yeah, he is our nominee. >> and jon huntsman also made more of the point. it's not just romney is a bad candidate, but it's how far

right this party has gone. he said he regrets taking this pledge -- the norquist. he slammed his party's denial of climate change and evolution. again, and this is a guy who is supposed to be endorsing romney. >> yeah, and he does have a certain point. i think there is a still a significant number of americans particularly in the center who are still looking to see is it -- we have our disagreements, can we all get along somehow and for the greater good compromise. and i think as the republican party and mitt romney continue to identify themselves that we're not going to compromise any of our positions, and we'll be extreme as possible.

and sure some of us are mad at president obama for not being tougher, but at least they are trying to moderate some positions to get things done and they are being met with a slap in the face. the right has moved even farther to the right. >> yeah, and i thought an interesting story that charlie chris law firm who donated to the mitt romney super pac. >> yeah, if you are too moderate or have a different sexual preference, or if you do volunteer work instead of working like the corporate radar, somehow you don't belong in the republican party, and i think it's crazy. i think there is a clear reason why more and more americans are identifying themselves as non-partisan. but it's particularly true on

the republican side. the number of self identified republicans are at an all-time low. and i think it's because there are so many people in the country that are sick of the far right. >> and they will completely have lost the will to live should newt gingrich get out of the race after after the big delaware primary. >> yeah, it will be interesting how he will handle the mitt romney endorsement. mitt romney from friends that still work for him and advise him, is he will never forgive mitt romney for the $3 million of negative ads that were dropped on his head alone. >> yeah. >> one more thing i got to add, i was so struck there was mitt romney a week ago who said

negative campaigning won't work. hello? this is a guy who spent $3 million in every state to eitherdy destroy newt gingrich or rick santorum. >> yeah, he doesn't seem to have a positive campaign at all. it will be hilarious. >> i'm positive my opponent is an idiot. >> and you david shuster are the best youralist in the world, because you came to current before i did. >> the talent rises to the top. but i'm so glad you are on board. >> thank you, honey for saying i float to the top. love you, david shuster. >> love you too stephanie. >> all right. we'll be right back. >> announcer: it's the "stephanie miller show." ♪
