their life on the line in iraq. and they put their parade. "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ >> good morning, everybody, good morning, just missed the "fox & friends" dance party, lucky for you. >> alisyn: he no, no, we'll recreate it. we have a sunday morning dance party before we start the show and dave is going to bust a move. >> clayton: and slip a disc. there was dancing going on on the endorsement. because herman cain actually it an endorsement for newt gingrich, this is surprising because he came out and saiddoi. >> dave: we the people:

what happened. >> alisyn: he realized that we weren't organized. >> on the ballot. >> alisyn: in charleston, south carolina, january 19th said he wasn't going to endorse anybody. he's changed his mind and he just endorsed newt gingrich. >> i'm happy to be here tonig tonight, because i here by officially and enthusiastically endorse newt gingrich for president of the united states. >> i know that speaker gingrich is a patriot, speaker gingrich is not afraid of bold ideas, and i also know that speaker gingrich is running for president and going through the this sausage grinder, i know what this

sausage grinder is all about. i know that he's going through this sausage grinder because he cares about the future of the united states of america. >> we all do. >> we often talk about how the president likes it bury bad news on a friday night. this, i don't know how it gets about, late on a saturday night ahead of the sunday morning interviews and all of herman cain's supporters. how could it move the needle. >> clayton: are they waiting? the real question after he announced he was getting out of the race and would he endorse anyone, a number of pundits said, would anyone want him to endorse? obviously he left the race under a cloud of issues. will it help or hurt newt gingrich going into florida. i don't know if we get any bounce from the endorsements. >> alisyn: we'll see.

if it does, it's the perfect time. the final stretch before tuesday and he may still have lots of passionate supporters and what it does, it helps to finish his credentials. >> and anti-establishment. >> and i think more important for newt gingrich what sarah palin is doing and saying, and clearly a lot of followers and support among the tea party base and sarah palin had been talking on facebook and now talking on television and it has really defined the anti-establishment, the us against the media narrative that newt gingrich is now playing up. here is what she says on saturday night. >> that agent of change, who has promised to shake it up, that's been newt gingrich, you've got to race against the machine at this point in order to say what is, what is good and secure and prosperous about our nation. we need somebody who is engaged and isn't afraid to shake it up. shake up that establishment.

so, if for no other reason, rage against the machine, newt. keep the process going and the debate going. as more happens, we'll hear from newt and others who oppose his condition as he claims he's not part of the establishment. let's hear more about it. >> dave: meanwhile. >> clayton: mitt romney is out on the trail trying to counter some of the anti-establishment from the newt gingrich campaign. he said he had an opportunity to lead our party and you're not as conservative as you're playing up your credentials to be, let's listen to mitt romney. >> he was given the opportunity to lead our party. we elect, he failed, he was find for the ethics violations and had to resign in disgrace. he can't rewrite lift. they have to go back and look at history may be a great guy with a lot of great ideas. he's not the leader that we

need at a critical time. >> this, this will be a historic election and we need to have someone who has been a leader and exceeded being a leader. i have and i will lead america back to strength. >> mitt romney, i think, took a page from newt gingrich, call all of your friends and tell them to vote. and romney said something similar. >> i'm speaking to you today as if i am 'm her the candidate for the republican party. as you know, but i'm not. i've still got some primaries to go through. there's one coming up on news, so, so, i need to convince everyone here to go out and get a few friends to vote for me. >> alisyn: so everybody is enlisting voters to convince

their friends, they tell one friend and they tell two friends. it's a commercial. >> a third of the electorate has voted. a huge number of votes are in between the absentee. >> and how many are undecided at this point. it doesn't look like a similar situation in south carolina, where so many people are undecided in the very last few days, we're awaiting pa poll out later on this morning and expected to be between the 7 and 10 point range. just about every. >> and the whole host of polls came out that shows the same thing, sort of an eerily kirth. all about at the point points. >> around that ten point lead for mitt romney. it'd be dramatic if there was a major shift in the poll this morning. >> let's talk about a sad chapter for rick santorum.

and he had to cancel some, his daughter is psych. and he talked her about, a genetic disorder and he and his wife i believe just hospitalized here in philadelphia. and he's talked about how her health is so touch and go, even one cold can be life threatening for her. >> clayton: yeah, i mean, he had want today come home, actually to take care of taxes and go et the stuff and headed back to florida and it's canceled because of it. here is the quote from rick santorum. rick and his wife are admitting bella. florida campaign schedule, however, rick intends to return to florida and resume the campaign as soon as it is possible. >> dave: it's difficult for his family. it's an extra chromosome, a genetic disorder. when you look at the political implications, will it hurt him?

i think it's the one question remaining and will some of his supporters go above the newt gingrich campaign? we haven't seen any sign of that recently. if he can get it to a two man race, but santorum is not winning. he's going on. >> and maybe people understand how challenging it must be for him to be campaigning with such vigor, while he has a child. >> everybody understands his priorities, can't be on the campaign trail right now. >> meanwhile, ron paul was down in texas over the weekend. back home in texas and headed up to maine to go after some of the folks up there. because of course, that's a primary coming up soon. he had this to say. takes a listen. >> and most presidents would be-- >> waist going to mouth the words for you, but then i thought. >> dave: that was marco rubio, let's tell you what's going on with ron paul, he's bucking

convention. he'll leave in colorado, not doing the conventional schedule and go going to florida and try to compete. he's going to the further states out west to try to pile up the delegates. >> alisyn: we have sound from him now. >> others who run for president, they talk about i know how to run the economy and tell people how they're supposed to live and police the world. i would like to be seen as the president, i don't want to run the world. i don't think we should be running the world. [applause]. >> and interesting, that he's done that and did that of course in iowa when it was going to the caucuses and thinking he left and went down to texas. >> there's a message to his madness. florida is winner take all in terms of the delegates. he knows he's not going to win florida. why not go to a caucus state and he can do that and makes

sense. >> clayton: and the then obama strategy against clinton. let's play well in the caucus states and get out retail politics and winner take all and it was neck and neck and tuesday, neck and neck, the winner take all in the caucus states. and doing what rick santorum is doing in florida, it's winner take all until it's not winner take out. if it's not a-- that's why santorum has been in congressional districts. they could give him the delegates. >> alisyn: get out your calculator. >> clayton: abacus. >> dave: the endorsement many want in florida is marco rubio, the senator from florida, but not endorsing anyone. he is staying focused on the president and criticizing his

lirn. he's at the republican address and he spoke to governor huckabee last night about the president and his failed leadership. >> most presidents at this stage would be bragging about accomplishments and telling them give four more years, what they've done the ras four years, wouldn't be able to to that. he has no excuse. 's going to pit he is against each other, hoping to gets to the magical 50 plus 1% to help win the election and trying to tell them. the reason why you're doing worse off because someone else is doing too well. the only way that you can climb the economic ladder, for someone to be pulled down. >> a lot of people saying that it's one of the issues. >> and marco rubio saying it's not necessarily the most important issue down there. that hispanics in florida care

about the economy. >> take a listen what he had to say. >> it's not the number one issue. there are a lot of other issues, number one is the economy, the lack of jobs and no community in this country has a stronger desire to leave their children better off than themselves, but it's hard to get on to the issues you described, whether it's social conservative and importance of the family and life. it's hard to get to those issues without confronting the immigration issuing, you're not just talking about statistics and theory. >> it's important that they become the pro legal immigration party. >> and many of hispanic decent-- they are from cuba, makes illegal i am great lakes not as big a deal for them. that's a huge part of their population, is the cuban paplation and don't have the same problems that mexicans do. a different state. >> alisyn: and he went on to say as part that have steech or part of that appearance i

should say, he thinks that some of the republican candidates have engaged in overheated rhetoric and asking them to tone it down. >> calling for ads to be removed and we know that earlier in the week and see if that happens with two days ago, and run in that capacity. >> believe it or not we have other news, and right to the headlines. >> there is he' been an occupy protest from oak, california, about 300 protesters arrested after they were ordered to disperse. another group was throwing rocks and tearing down fences and so far, three police officers have been hurt and the group also broke into city council, reportedly damaging, and burning an american flag and tried to occupy a ymca and tried to be in a vacant convention center downtown. a look at the wrecked concordia cruise ships.

happened yesterday. there was the first parade out in st. louis for the returning veterans of the iraq war and it's a bit controversial because no other big cities are doing this and government has not been asking for it. we've had the joint chiefs say that's not something the pentagon would do and mayor bloomberg basically saying here in the city, well, the federal government hasn't asked us to do it. to do on our own. this is the first big city to do this. >> dave: the difficult question how do you honor the end of the iraq war. honor our troops without delving into the politics of it and that's what the organizers in st. louis decided. we need to first honor the people who sacrifice and honor 4,000 lives lost in iraq and there was a huge turnout and some say as high as 100,000 people and the two guys started it all and talked to us on "fox & friends" on saturday and here is what it's all about. >> really important that-- from my perspective that we

were closing the book on the iraq war, and we need to celebrate that. mike caig says we're beginning an about phase where we have to help us transition into societies and i think that's really important, but also to let them know that we really appreciate what they're doing. >> new york city decided not to have a parade like this and mayor bloomberg says that he's following instructions from the department of defense that they think it's premature and other troops are in harm's way. for any city that is considering doing it. lewis has set the bar very high. for the people that turned out and a model. >> we've talked about it before, but there's precedence for this. when we were fighting world 2. people were celebrating as a result. men and women served and helped to fight in world war

ii. not the women on the front lines. we were still fighting in japan and in the pacific and we're still fighting another war in afghanistan and there's precedence for celebrating those in iraq and being brought back home. >> it's pa good perspective. >> about the politics, it's celebrating the individuals. >> we had a former sniper and a most decorated sniper on just a couple of weeks ago, regardless of how you feel about the iraq war, the afghanistan war, the politics behind the decision to go there. say thanks to our troops and that's all they want. want to you recognize the sacrifice they are making, it's not about politics when you honor our troops. >> i do remember that. one nice thing he witnessed somebody in uniform and another guy in the restaurant picked up a tab. >> dave: even if you buy a cup of coffee to them. at which point, mike jerrick

said i've got to have a, you know, forl lau (laughter) . just a funny one. >> alisyn: and the economy will improve? will it give him the upper hand headed into the election. >> clayton: and actually getting your hand on a gun, it's not so easy. wow, that's a gun. wait until you hear what this woman went through and she's here to share her story. i wonder if she bought the gun. >> alisyn: i hope not. ♪

improved economy. >> we have to look at how much the economy is improving. in the last year, the economy only improved 1.7%. that's good, but if you compare it to say, reagan, they love to compare. >> at this point in the presidency. 16% not 6%, so, as you compare the improvements, this has been a very sluggish improvement, chris and we have to admit that. >> she brings up a similar point and bring in bill clinton and far more favorable during clnton's run up. brings up a great points. >> the recession we were in was far deeper, and broader and across the country. that said, we are starting to see improvement in the economy. americans should feel that things have turned a corner. and let us know, about the

squeezing the middle class. it's the middle class that-- >> and it's president obama and let me just say one thing. >> hopefully not for long. >> let he me make one thing perfectly clear, things are getting better and they tend to snowball. if they spend more more people will be in-- >> and all republicans can do right now is hope and pray that things stay bad. >> please don't let them get better, please. >> margaret go ahead. >> we want things better, not playing politics, and i want my family members to go back to work just like everybody else. the problem is the policies are not making the economy better and that's what they are going to argue. he also promised to unite the united states of america, not divide it with their warfare, rich versus poor. >> not really rich verse poor. >> barack obama has to run on

his own record. those arguments don't wash. does the argument wash that under president obama, things haven't gotten better? earlier in this week, mitt romney was talking to laura ingram on the radio show and basically admitted under president obama. the economy improved. how are you going to run on the message? do you have a solution, laura. mitt romney, says this is the case, it case. >> it hasn't lived up to-- he says the liberals continue to move the goal posts, when we should be 6.8 unemployment right now, haven't had the economic growth that promise promised. they said we didn't know how b

bad. even though they say it's the worst economy since the great depression, you can have an underemployment rate. and a real unemployment rate close to 15%. >> i don't know what the conservative republican argument is going to be, a guy like mitt romney governed to the left of president obama. who is going to basically be talking about his experience on wall street making him qualified to be present and wall street drove us into this ditch and president obama ap the democrats in congress and some that worked with him. tried to make the country go out and-- >> and oh, that was president obama. >> and what i love about my good, my good friends, my good democratic friends, they continually find the rhetoric and there's nothing wrong with being rich, nothing wrong with being hf made and it's an aspiration and-- >> close that up and i wanted to go there next, the idea of class warfare and we heard some of it, and even president

of anything. one philanderer, palin does matter, she has a basic support for the fallen right that might come out and support-- >> and do the palin supporters jump on the newt band wagon in florida? >> what you basically set yourself up in. it's hard for me as a republican to believe that gingrich grib is not the establish the candidate. nobody has been more part of the establishment over the course of his career. newt gingrich is the outsider, sarah palin and former vice-president nominee is now the outsider and running against mitt romney, and om been the governor of massachusetts. >> how does the outsider wash with newt gingrich, a guy peek speaker of the house, office on k street and lives in washington d.c. do the tea party folks buy na. there is he' such a distrust for mitt romney that they have been buying that. the best thing for newt

gingrich if rick santorum moved out of the race. >> sarah palin will help, but a bump, but sarah palin supporters and herman cain supporters are already aligned with newt gingrich. >> if rick santorum dropped out. it would help newt gingrich moving forward. >> and the news going around and the outsiders. the speaker of the house, made a lot of money, god bless mimm after he left the house and working in washington. he's calling himself an outsider. nobody wants to see him wearing jeans and he's not pony boy. >> clayton:.boy. >> san sorm has been very, very-- did not respect and admire gingrich in the house with him. hard to see him endorsing. >> i think his supporters of a lot more conservatives than mitt romney. >> final word? >> listen, whatever happens in florida. i think the race goes on more,

in a recent wall street journal op-ed, scientists wrote there's no compelling scientific evident for drastic action on global warming. rodney nichols, the former president and ceo of new york academy of sciences. you joining us this morning to talk about your fascinating and provocative op-ed. let me start with you, professor harper. you say that no drastic action is needed on global warming at this time. why not? >> well, first of all, there's been almost no warming for ten years and so, it's clear that the computer models that have frightened everyone are greatly exaggerating the amount of warming that's going to happen. >> let me stop you right now. that's in the face of some prnted by noaa, the national oceanic and atmospheric

association. they say that 2011 was the hottest summer on record for the nights. two states that you see there were, had temperatures, record breaking temperatures. you remember the wildfires in texas and dozens of other states had temperatures well above normal. mr. nichols, how do you explain that? >> i don't know the details this have particular chart, but there's variations every year. you can find over 100 years, or ten years or 20 years all kinds of variations. >> the hottest summer ever was 2011. >> i've seen data that contradicts that and, for example, most of the data i'm seeing indicates that the 30's, dust bowl was hotter than it is now. and you know, you need to look at the details. >> alisyn: yeah, this is, according to noaa, 2011 was, however, there's another world

health organization says that globally, 2010 was the hottest on record. all time high in asia. and record heat in the sudan. and again, this is the stuff that other scientists, other leading scientists, much like yourself, say is evidence of global warming and what do you-- how do you counter that? >> well, global means to average over the entire globe. and you can look at the satellite measurements and temperature or you can look at ground based temperatures and they do not show that there's been any warming for ten years. a and. >> on average. >> so you could find pockets where it got a lot warmer, and pockets where maybe it got cooler and the other point, ali, the long range is what's important. >> right. >> most of the more gloomy forecasts say that over the next 100 years, it might get

two degrees centigrade warmer worldwide. we can cope with that. the reason our op-ed is titled don't panic, we can cope with what seemed to be a pretty bad case. >> meaning, there won't be massive melting of glaciers that are causing the sea level to rise, you don't think? >> well, there might be some, but we can cope with whatever it is. >> well, listen, your message of not panicking is certainly a comforting one. it's nice to know that such esteemed scientists as yourselves have looked into this and don't believe there's reason for panic. the op-ed no need to compete about global warming, and rodney nichols from the new york economy of sciences, thanks for coming in and sharing your perspective. >> thank you. >> don't call him the food stamp president. >> the initial expansion of

>> welcome back everybody. after being the victim of a robbery our next guest decide today get a gun to protect herself. little did she know the steps of becoming a gun owner. joining us, emily miller. good morning to you, emily. >> good morning, dave. >> it is a cumbersome process to say the least to get a gun in washington d.c. it's a ten step process.

ordinarily, i think you'd write a column and for you a 17-part series. why is this process so difficult? take us through it. >> well, dave, we're not even at 17 parts, we're not done. my gun now is held oej and i almost might add at the d.c. police station. it was unbelievable. i knew be it would be difficult to get it legally. illegally, i probably could have in one in five minutes walking down the street. but legally, make it virtually almost impossible for anyone to get through this process. i've taken a written test, five hours of classes, stood in line at dmz. filled out forms, there's so many things you have to do to get a gun legally in the city. i don't know when it's going to end. >> we have some graphics to

take people through the steps to get a gun and i think one of the things, to mention in your piece, you couldn't do it in the d.c. city limits. you have to actually travel to get, to take the classes, was that the most difficult portion of this and what about the money involved? >> well, the most difficult by far has been what he they thought was a safety class and i c i know nothing about gun safety in the class. they make you do four hours and the shooting range. the four hours are just about learning the gun laws and take a written test later at the police station. at the shooting range they should be able to issue the paper, which is, you know, this big and not that difficult. but, d.c., because you're not allowed to take a gun anywhere outside of your house in the city, foe open carry, no concealed carry.

so you have to go to virginia or maryland and i had to drive almost an hour each way until i found in maryland. and the cost is astronomicalment and i have no idea how expensive this would be. the class itself and $225. plus, $35 for the range and ammunition, also spent, $125 to transfer the gun into d.c., because you can't get a gun at the gun stores in nearby states and that's part of the deal. a total of $465, i've spent so far and that doesn't include the price of the gun. >> now, this is ultimately about protecting yourself. don't we want it to be a somewhat difficult process, we don't want to make it easy for people to get guns, do we? >> i think we do. it says in the constitution, the right to keep and bear arms. obviously, everyone knows the crime rates in d.c. if you know anyone, getting a

gun is ease any d.c. it's getting a gun legally that's very difficult. if i wanted to walk down the street and buy a gun, that's no problem. it's getting one legally and that's why people don't get guns legally and otherwise, not talking about the bad guys and they're robbing people. and good guys, otherwise law abiding citizens, they have thousands and thousands of guns in the city and not registered pause the process is so time consuming. i've taken off days of work and obviously, my job, but days of my regular job, writing editorials on politics because i have to stand in line. >> maybe 18, how easy it is to get it legally. you can read it on the washington times website and appreciate you joining us, what a process, you're going through. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. >> herman cain's bless be enough to help newt gingrich to win. >> they come out in full force with the former speaker. and break out the your

>> the numbers are conflicted. because george w. bush increased the number of food stamps compared to president obama. then again the current president did this in three years, compared to eight years and it seems that both much them have expanded dramatically the number of food stamp recipients. isn't that the ultimate answer? >> and typically on the issue, as we point out, the president's people are out there saying, increased 14.7 million people on the food stamps, under barack obama, it's 14.3, but that was under eight years of gueorge w. bush and only three years of president obama. >> alisyn: let me interrupt you, the lion's share of what happened with president bush was in the final year. it's about the economy. when the economy goes south, more people are on food stamps. is this a logical argument that newt gingrich want to be

making. >> i don't think we want to. people generally on food stamps, they can't get enough money to get by. and under the obama economy, people can't get jobs. they've gone into profferty under barack obama. 36 months above 8% unemployment rate. and you have 1 million private sector jobs that have disappeared under his administration. that's the issue we should be talking about, not talking about whether people are receiving food stamps or not. and we've got a visualization, and the question, also, what has president obama done in your opinion to make food stmstm stamps to change the requirements for them. >> and i don't know what he has done, is it put more people on food stamps by the fact that he hasn't improved the economy, and the reality is, look, if you want to talk

about government dependency, 40 million people are going on to government health care bus of obamacare and spent the first two years of his presidency, trying to force through obamacare, rather than focusing on the number one issue in this country, which is creating jobs. so, the issue is not who increases eligibility. the issue is why are people on food stamps? because they can't find jobs because the economy is disaster. >> mark, we want to get your opinion of a new ad that is a pro newt gingrich ad and this is the pac and goes after mitt romney and his bank cut. let's listen to at that piece of this. ♪ >> okay. so, very dramatic music and if you were reading along the

each other in hopes of getting to the magic 50 plus 1% and help them get to the election in certain states and the only way to help you with your job, the reason you're doing worse off, because someone else is doing too well and the only way you can climb the economic ladder for someone else is pulled down. that's not who we've been as a nation, that's what other countries do. >> alisyn: of course in florida one of the issues, immigration, marco rubio has a lot to say about that. one of thing this i think so, he tells how he thinks the candidates had overheated rhetoric about immigration and believes it's not helpful and tone it down and some people wondering if he himself is softening his stance a little, particularly on the dream act, about students are here illegally and being able to stay if they're getting a degree or sign up for the military. so, it's interesting how the positions are coming into sharper focus now that florida is-- >> and perhaps, the senator reminding the candidates that

they might be focused too much on the immigration issue, 48 hours out from the primary. >> immigration is not the number one issues on americans of hispanic descent. the lack of jobs, no community has a stronger desire to leave their children better off than americans of hispanic descent. and it's hard to get on the issues you described, whether it's social conservativism, the importance of family, importance of life. on immigration, you're not just talking about statistics or theory, you're talking about people that they love. that's why i think it's so important that the republican party becomes the pro legal immigration party. >> and this is something that karl rove warned republicans about, an issue where we could really alienate, not a pun there, but alienate some of the hispanic population and they try to find a way forward on that. and what they need to look at

george w. bush and his battle with illegal immigration and try to deal with it. he got a lot of blow back from his own party to deal with it. a motted history. if you want to look during the complain year, it's difficult for anybody to handle it. >> a bigger issue in the general election, probably. >> it's complicated for every president, but let's get to your headlines and tell you what else is happening. at this hour, there's new troubling information in that case of the missing maine toddler. they're testing blood found in the basement of her father's he home where she was last seen six weeks ago. and police won't say how much blood only that it's discovered early in the information. he claims he put her to bed and next morning she was gone. and rising violence in iraq, vice-president joe biden is keeping in close contact with iraqi leaders. the latest in a series of attacks on friday when a suicide bomber killed 31 in

is large and repercussions for traffic and things like that, we try to reduce spontaneity as much as possible. he's the president of the united states, if he can do-- >> running out for a burger. >> no jumping. >> dave: and what is the most difficult part about securing the president and protecting the leader of the free world? >> crowd control, definitely. they're excited to see the president and that's not a partisan issue and that goes tore republicans and democrats and i've served under three presidents and crowd control can be tough and people live at the moment and you're part of history and you have to personalize it right away and look at them in the eye and they get back in the moment. >> speaking of personal life. do you have to put up a wall in terms of how well you get to know him? >> yeah, it's definitely not a personal relationship. there's interaction and they get to recognize familiar faces, spaesespecially a lot of supervisors, hey, how are you doing, how was the morning,

>> clayton: constantly nagging us. >> chris: hi, guys. >> dave: herman cain coming out and endorsing newt gingrich. >> chris: it doesn't hurt. i can't say that it means a lot. cain has been out of this race for a couple of months now and that most of his supporters are no longer cain supporters. they have gone to other candidates. my guess is because he was more of the tea party side. more of the conservative side they probably already, most of them gone to newt gingrich and now he has been officially endorsed by cain. so, as i say, it can't hurt but i don't think it's a big boost for him either. >> are you looking at polls and trying to glean some information about antiestablishment strain that's been going on? newt gingrich trying to paint himself as the antiestablishment guy. herman cain. throwing her support behind

newt gingrich. anything to this. >> chris: there clearly is an effort by some members, you know, you can't call it a cohesive group but of the so-called tea party faction within the party to rally around gingrich or at least to stop this march which we seem to be headed towards romney at least in florida. obviously that's something that gingrich has to tap into. that's a very important part of the party. maybe not organized but there is certainly a tea party strain, which is against big government, which is antiestablishment. gingrich is a kind of curious messenger from that because nobody could have been more a part of the republic establishment. he was speaker of the house. he has been living in washington for 20 years. as we all know, he has done commercials with nancy pelosi. he involved on k street and a lot of the business in washington. he particularly versus romney has tapped into that tea party

sentiment and to see palin talking about raging against the machine and then herman cain, clearly there are some people -- it's interesting it reminds me of obama and clinton in 2008. whenever anybody got close to the nomination, it was if the party said you know, we want to think about this some more, let's help the other person to win so this will drag on longer and we can see these people a little bit more in action. >> alisyn: i thought the comments on jeanine pirro were interesting. machine. -- she said annoy a liberal, vote newt. what some of the, we have seen in the past week, is it is some conservatives like ann coulter and the national review that have come against newt's conservative credentials, not necessarily liberals, it's conservatives. >> that's right. that's why this is diabolic

stuff. yes there is a tea party strain. i think it's less liberal conservative and more establishment vs. grass roots. i think the establishment is certainly rallying around romney. now, is it because of his views or because they have doubts about gingrich's ability to run a general election campaign against barack obama? i think it's more of the latter. but, in any case, certainly the establishment is rallying around romney and the grass roots in the person of or persons of palin and cain is going to support. and i think a lot of people, too to support gingrich. >> dave: romney took heat for running this ad that starred tom brokaw highlighting the day that newt gingrich, the ethics violations were finally wrapped up. then on saturday he again turned back to the clock to what happened to newt, what was it 15 years ago now. listen. >> he was given the

opportunity to lead our party. >> he failed. >> you are right, he failed. he was fined for ethics violations. he ultimately had to resign in disgrace. he can't rewrite history. we have to go back and look at history he may a great guy with a lot of great ideas but he is not the leader we need in a critical time. this will be an historic election. and we need to have someone who has been a leader and succeeded at being a leader. i have and i will lead america back to strength. [cheers and applause] >> that was a little longer than we counted on. that's something you asked newt gingrich about later. how about the voting aspect of this. i'm seeing a lot of response on facebook and twitter. we already voted some say as high as a third of the population in florida have already voted. how big of a factor is that? >> chris: it's a big factor. 400,000 people have already voted. if you go to the total turnout in 2008, which is 2 million.

one fifth, 20% of the total vote has already voted. a lot of them have already voted 250,000, even before the south carolina primary last saturday. now, romney had a big get out the vote organization. this is both for absentee ballots and early voting and there is every reason to believe he had banked, i know the romney campaign believes they had banked a lot of votes before the candidates even came to florida. that could be a big advantage to romney when they start counting the votes tuesday night. >> alisyn: we know you have newt gingrich and congressman paul ryan on "fox news sunday." what's your first question for newt gingrich. >> i could tell you but i would have to kill you and stop nagging me. >> dave: chris, always great to see you. >> alisyn: tell you what else is happening in the news. more than 300 people arrested in oakland, california, after a chaotic day of occupy protests. police officers used tear gas

>> alisyn: if you buy cold medicine in illinois drugstore police are now notified about your purchase. new state law designed to cush the publish of methamphetamine. some say it violates the people's right to privacy. here is pam dixon from the world privacy forum and dr. darryl angreth addiction psychiatrist. thanks to both of you for being here. >> thank you. >> thanks for having me. >> alisyn: you don't like this new law. what's the problem? the big problem is that this kind of medication, which are

basically methamphetamine precursors they need to be controlled but our argument is that we need to control it with prescription. right now these prescriptions would have, for example, the protection of the privacy law, hippa. but without a prescription, the information is not protected by this law. and it's just going straight to a database where if you have cold, you are on file for four years. i just think that people who have a medical problem should be protected by a medical privacy law. >> alisyn: what about that? the police have you in some sort of data base or file for four years if you buy cold medicine? >> well, for those of us on the front lines of treating addiction, most of us applaud this kind of legislation. methamphetamine is such a powerful drug. anything we can do to reduce

the production of it, i think we need to do i think at some point going to a prescription may be a solution. those things take time and great deal of debate. we have a problem right now. i think this is good legislation. >> alisyn: pam, the other argument is if you are not doing anything wrong, you are not a drug addict or a drug dealer, what do you care if you sit on a data base for four years? >> there is a lot of problems with it. in privacy there is a saying if you build it, they will come. they meaning hackers and identity thieves. if you have large database of people's names, phone numbers and home addresses that are -- it's basically unregulated database, it's a real honey pot for mischief. so, it's better if those are not created. i really like the idea of moving these drugs to prescription basis because that way the information already has normalized procedures. there is a lot of process around prescriptions. a lot of protections.

it's much better to employ the protections we already in the law and set up. >> alisyn: it sounds like you both have this point of agreement that at some point a prescription process could work here. however, as someone who likes to go into a drugstore and buy allergy pills when she needs it or cold medication when she needs it doesn't that put undue strain on a consumer? >> crystal meth is a drug of mass destruction. there is no other way to describe it. incredibly addicting, incredibly toxic to take but to make. i think that it's a small price to pay for this kind of anittany lions. i think we all have to contribute to the reduction of this precursor. >> alisyn: let me quickly read for you the statement of the illinois governor pat quinn on this new law. it's a valuable tool that

helps prevent meth from getting into our communities by stopping production. we will see how it works in illinois and whether or not this comes to other states. pam dixon, dr. daniel angres, thank you for coming into the debate. >> thank you. >> alisyn: official honoring home parade for heros heading back from iraq. they have raised millions of dollars just by riding. how you can help cycle for survival after this.

did it we had the organizers on the show yesterday, it's not about politics, it's just about the men and women in uniform. >> it's really important from my perspective that we were closing the book on the iraq war, you know, we need to really celebrate that and -- but like craig said, we are beginning a phase where we have to take care of these troops and help them transition back in a society. i think that's really important. but also the -- to let them know that we really appreciate what they are doing. >> alisyn: st. louis sure made the troops proud and visa versa. they turned out in full force. you can see hundreds of thousands of people. i'm not sure exactly what the total is. >> dave: organizers claim 100,000 people were there. >> alisyn: chill there obviously. people are lining the streets. >> dave: 600 veterans as well. >> alisyn: great model for other cities considering it new york has decided at the moment to subscribe to the department of defense theory that our men and women are still in harm's way and now is

not exactly the time for. this each city can do their own thing. st. louis sure led the way. >> dave: take politics out of this and honor the troops say thanks. >> dave: it is odd in new york because we have a parade every weekend walking through this city. you are hard-pressed to find a weekend without some type of parade. >> clayton: traffic is rerouted on a regular basis. like this weekend who knows hun doran festival, necked week the canadian festival. >> dave: let us know how you feel about this? >> alisyn: the missing toddler ayla reynolds. they are testing blood found in the basement of her father's home. where she was last seen six weeks ago. police won't say how much blood only that it was discovered early in their investigation. ayla's father claims he put little ayla to bed and when she awoke the next morning she is gone. police say they don't think that the is full story. yemen's president has arrived in the u.s. for medical

cancer. while battling the disease she realized how little funding there is for rare cancers. she wanted to change that jennifer and her husband started a foundation called cycle for survival. since then, the foundation has raised more than $13 million. just last year jennifer joined us on "fox & friends." >> my husband and i started doing research and we realized where cancers -- rare cancers are more common than you thing. group them together 50% of all cancer cases a year. when i was first diagnosed i found exercise very therapeutic for me. i would go to the gym and cycle. i decided to kind of take my passion for marketing and couple it with cycling. >> alisyn: sadly just five months after that interview jennifer lost her fight with cancer. her husband is making sure her cause lives on. dave lind is preparing to mark the sixth year of cycle survival next month. and he joins us now. dave, thanks for being here. >> thanks for having me. >> alisyn: so sorry for your loss.

continuing her legacy. >> jennifer, no matter what she went through, six major surgeries, over 20 different types of chemotherapy. she was always thinking what can i do to help other patients. when i get down or anybody else gets down we think we need to keep going with everything she started. we have got the events coming up this year. they will be bigger and better than ever. >> alisyn: $13 million is a lot. how you have done it so successfully? >> we started out and i found one of jen's old emails. she said if we can just raise $10,000 that would be great. here we are updated total up above 14 million. we're hoping to continue to push that forward in the next couple weeks before the event on february 4th and february 11th and 12th. >> alisyn: what are rare cancers? >> we were shocked when we found this out. there are actually cancer effect 14,000. pancreatic, brain cancer, stomach cancer, kidney cancer. and when you add them up, as jen said on that interview,

they total 50% of all cancers. and there aren't any -- until cycle for survival there weren't any national events that collectively focused on rare cancers. >> alisyn: rare cancers, though they are ones we have heard of and add up do they have the funding. >> huge events for breast cancer and prostate which are great cancer. sometimes they are called organ cancers. we started with a way to find new treatment options for these cancers. and every single dollar that's raised goes directly into research that's run by kettering cancer center. >> alisyn: tell us about the event next year. >> team cycling event. equinox is the founding cycle ler. best gyms around. they clear out all of the equipment, all the weights and fill the entire place with bikes. have people and teams riding. it's a fun, inspiring event. and all the teams are raising money for cancer research. >> alisyn: indoor cycling. should we give it a shot, people? >> we should.

>> alisyn: how does it work? what will would he be seeing next week. >> jen said you pettledz hard or hardly pedal. perfect event for you. people in the shirts with different teams. we got expect miracles for mark right here. team sydney. everybody gets together and everybody has their own story about why they are riding because, sad facts are that one in every two men and one in every three women are going to be affected by coach at some point in their lifetime. that's why we have to keep riding and doing everything we can. >> alisyn: people watching and throw their support behind the event how do they get involved? >> go to cycle for survival.org. sign up to a team to ride with us or donate to support the cause. every dollar goes right into research. >> alisyn: that's so terrific. who is tired?

eating healthy and when -- when they see the label. >> organic is a meaningful label because there are standards behind it and, basically what it means is there is no synthetic ingredients, have been added and there is no synthetic use of pesticides or artificial fertilizers, so that is a very meaningful label because these standards mean something, it is also verified and there is a system behind it. >> alisyn: i'm glad you are here to help us understand this. nowadays, buying organic is not good enough. now we are supposed to also buy grass-fed. grass-fed means the cows have been out in the pasture, eating the mineral-rich grass. >> grass fed can be a meaningful label because the data show that animals, cattle that have been fed only grass, do have -- their meat and milk is of higher quality. so, if it says grass-fed and usda verified it means it is real -- >> alisyn: and this is grass -- >> if it just says grass-fed.

we don't know. because what happens is, the food safety inspection service allows something to say grass-fed, if only 80% of the feed is grass and the other 20% can be grain. that is not really good and if it says, usda processed verified grass-fed. that is a proven thing. >> clayton: a lot of people buy milk for their children, and toddlers, put it in to the batt. natural, we have natural peanut butter on the show yesterday and it was filled with chemicals. >> all-natural means is that it is minimally processed, and there is no added artificial ingredients. but, for example, when it says, natural chicken it means it is minimally processed. that chicken technically could be a cloned animal, it could be fed genetically engineered grains that have been covered in pesticides, and, it could have been fed ground-up parts of other animals, all natural tells

you how it is product. >> sounds delicious. >> that doesn't really mean anything, though people think it is a meaningful label and it means something more when it is on vegetables, because all that means is nothing is added to them but, again, they can be sprayed with pesticides. >> alisyn: natural is not as good a label as organic. fresh? >> fresh means never has been frozen and for poultry the way they define fresh is anything above 26° fahrenheit and claim chicken doesn't freeze at that temperature but our west coast office tried to get the law changed and actually had a fresh turkey and chicken that we could bowl with, because they were frozen solid. >> clayton: 27°? it snows at 32°. >> that can have been frozen and any other food, fresh means it can never have been frozen before. >> alisyn: your scientific research, i love that, with bowling. >> clayton: what is wrong with our government?

next up, free range, you go to a nice restaurant and want a free range chicken, presumably it tastes better. it has not been shoved in a cage and fed chemicals. >> people think -- or cage-free and some say free range and this is a free range chicken broth and eggs and other things, they say cage-free. free-range, you think the animals are left to run around outside and it could be that but legally it means access to the outdoors and you can have literally a chicken coop with 20, 30,000 chickens in it and one case had a porch they could walk out onto and that was considered free range. or cage-free, people think it means the chicken are running all in around and you can have them in a barn with 50,000 chickens that can hardly move, they are not in cages, and that is cage-free. >> alisyn: should we stop buying free range and cage free eggs? they are not useful now. >> in some cases the free range

could really mean animals that have run around outdoors. you don't really know. >> clayton: is the answer to drive up and -- see all the local farms all the time, selling eggs locally? is that better. >> it could be. but, in terms of what labels are, useful, we have a web site, greenerchoices.org. go to the web site and find out which labels are meaningful and which aren't. >> alisyn: check that out. >> clayton: it is really about your health and not getting chemicals in your body and knowing what you are buying, the labels can be highly misleading. michael, appreciate you joining us. >> alisyn: thanks, appreciate it. next, michael is back to talk about organic food, what you get and what to forget. >> and also, alaska airlines announcing it is taking the face out of the friendly skies. what does it mean and why? father john will be here, live. >> alisyn: meet the marriage killer. clayton morris! joking! we're not talking about cheating. find out why nagging could be more toxic to your marriage.

>> dave: the nagging never stops, alisyn. >> alisyn: no, it doesn't. we'll tell you who the biggest nagger in our studio is. in a moment. >> clayton: we'll reveal it. >> alisyn: meanwhile, the headlines, let me tell you what is happening, high school students one a trip to the rio grande river in new mexico, all of a sudden heard a man calling for help. they called the police, and rescue crews were able to find a man, who was stuck in the mud. they said he had been there for three days. >> clayton: biggest fear. >> alisyn: and they say communication is key but in north korea it appears to be a threat. the country is reportedly banning cell phones, saying anyone caught using one will be viewed as a war criminal.

it comes amid fears of an up rising there. yes. you'll share -- >> a quick thing, as a kid, quicksand was everywhere, you read it in every book and cartoons and i was afraid i would be walking outside and get stuck in quicksand. biggest fear. >> dave: biggest pet peeve? nagging, some say the biggest marriage-killer, even worse than adultery, say some experts and we did -- broke it down in terms of how you can avoid the nagging in your marriage, do you guys first buy that it is worse than adultery in a marriage. >> alisyn: equal. >> clayton: equal? >> dave: i don't know. i did not marry a nagger. >> alisyn: if you are constantly nag that is a slow death of a marriage. >> clayton: slow, it is like quicksand, a slow death. the research interestingly found that within five years, if you have negative communication within the marriage according to

the study, it will lead to 20% more negative discussions after that five-year mark and it is downhill, if you are nagging in a relationship. >> dave: mostly women, alisyn, sorry that you feel it's not. >> alisyn: i'm reaching back for a book, we had a doctor on, who has -- dr. karen's marriage manual and told us how couples can stop the nagging. >> if you acknowledge and take ownership of the fact it is a dynamic between two people and the requester and the requestee not the nagger and the nage and by taking ownership each plays a role in a marital partnership. it is not unlike a business relationship. where one person manages the business of home and the other person is to help be part of that team-ship, by acknowledging your spouse and not blaming the nagger, there will be solutions. >> clayton: so easy, ignore it and not get to the root of the issue. that is what the piece was saying, nagging is not the

issue. it is the underlying thing and you only argue about the nagging and not the issue, like leaving cabinets open. >> alisyn: and women, usually women, it is the women, because they are the house managers in general. we are stereotyping but in general, women they're house managers, so, by definition, they nag you to pick up your laundry and nag you to get off the sofa or whatever you are doing... >> dave: not much of a nagger. i leave the cabinets open... no, i mean, one of the tips was, use texts and e-mails. here's where i argue with the doctor. if you text an e-mail you are still nagging and, can you fix that, to your husband, it is still nagging, virtual nagging is no better than ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma... >> clayton: and she talked about a guy who went to work and went to take a bite out of his sandwich and there was a sticky note in his sandwich and he hit the roof. meet later at the tile store, she was nagging him to go to the

same thing that then governor of florida, charlie crist did when he came out on a saturday night and support john mccain four years ago, around herman cain who in january 19th, i think, at an event in charleston, south carolina said he wouldn't endorse anybody other than we the people says he didn't think of this at the last minute and it has been in his heart a long time. >> clayton: and they developed a friendship and of course had the lincoln douglas-style debate and have been friendly on the issues the past few months and here is herman cain making it official for newt gingrich. listen: >> i here by officially and enthusiastically endorse newt gingrich for president of the united states.

has been newt gingrich. you have to rage against the machine at this point in order to defend our republic and save what is good and secure and prosperous about our nation. we need somebody who is engaged in relentless reform and is not afraid to shake up that establishment. so, if for no other reason, rage against the machine, vote for newt, annoy a liberal, vote newt. keep the debate going and as more debate happens, judge we'll hear more from newt and the other candidates who will oppose his position, as he claims he's not part of the establishment, let's hear more about it. >> clayton: there is disagreement among republicans whether or not the long process helps or hurts them. karl rove thinks it helps them and the vetting process, president obama and hillary clinton and the protracted fight and other republicans think it is bad for the party. >> alisyn: voters like it. if you judge by the ratings of the debates. they are not slacking off, and they keep getting more and more

immigration, that is an important topic in florida and his own family and history, and first thing, however, he talked about was president obama and how much he thinks the president's policies have failed. we could hear that. >> most presidents at this stage would be bragging about their accomplishments and telling people, give them four more years because what they've done the last four years, he will not be able to do that. and she has no excuses and will pit americans against each other and put us against each other in hopes of getting to the magical 50-plus-one percent to help him win the election in certain states and he says the reason why you are doing worse off this year is because someone else is doing too well and the only way you can commitment the economic ladder is for someone else to be pulled you on. that is never who we have been, that is what other countries do. >> alisyn: there you have it and he talked about immigration, and how important it is to people in

and i am fighting with everything i have got along with 25 other states, about the federal government intrusion into our lives. that is what obamacare is about, the federal health care mandate. that is what we are doing, everything in our power to fight. i have personally spoken with governor romney, numerous times about this. and he wholeheartedly agrees with us, that we have got to get rid of obamacare. in our country. you know, the founding fathers, what if they told us the powers allocated to the federal government are few and defined and, it has become a runaway train in washington, d.c. and we have got to -- >> i'm sorry to interrupt you. you say in attacking obamacare, quote, if the federal government can do it they can force us to do anything and let's insert state government into the sentence, if the state government can do it they can force to us do anything.

philosophically doesn't the mandate still offend you as an attorney general, that is where you are arguing it is unconstitutional? >> what i am arguing is that the -- along with 25 other states and the majority of states endorsed mitt romney. let me tell you that. let me tell you what we're arguing. obamacare, the federal government mandate on health care, is destroying jobs in my state. in florida. it is hurting liberty of my state, in florida. it is killing our state. it would be financially impossible for my state in florida to survive with obamacare. >> alisyn: okay. and we hear you. just so we're clear, you are okay if states decide that they want a universal health care plan... >> dave: similar to massachusetts. >> alisyn:... similar to massachusetts that may raise taxes or premiums and have an individual mandate. you are okay with states deciding that individually?

>> that is what our government was set up to do. states should make that decision individual states, for themselves. not the federal government, not barack obama. it would put our state out of business. let me tell you what we're concerned about in florida. first, we're concerned about getting barack obama out of office, because we're concerned about our economy, we're concerned about job creation, we're concerned about the things i believe matter to most people in this country. >> dave: you certainly are. >> the candidate i believe who can best beat barack obama in a general election is mitt romney. >> dave: we understand that. all the candidates want to repeal obamacare. if... >> and i commend all of them, yes. >> dave: if the supreme court does not rule it unconstitutional you as an attorney general must realize how difficult the mission will be to repeal it. how will mitt romney and newt gingrich, any of the rest, rick santorum, ron paul, repeal obamacare if it is

constitutional? >> that's right and thank goodness all of our republicans candidates, i'm glad you said that, are committed to doing everything in their power to helping to repeal obamacare. but you are right. it will be difficult because you can't just do it by the stroke of a pen. it takes more than that and that is why we have been allocated as you know, three days in front of the united states supreme court in march. and, we are praying the states and the national federation of independent business it will not come to that. the supreme court will hear our case, they have given us an unprecedented amount of time and by the time the election comes around we will not have the federal health care mandate and by the way we'll have a decision sometime in june from the united states supreme court because this is so important to our country. >> alisyn: interesting stuff and you're at the front line of it, pam bondi, florida attorney general, thanks for joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> dave: coming up you might be able to get peanuts on the

plane, hold the prayers. alaska airlines taking the faith out of flying. father jonathan morris here next to explain.

>> clayton: welcome back. service with a smile but not with a prayer. alaska airlines, one of america's largest commercial carriers is ending the 30-year tradition of passing out prayer cards. with lines from the book of psalms in the in-flight meals and they hand them out after the meal. >> alisyn: father jonathan morris, and author of "god wants us happy" joins us from jerusalem. father john great to see you. >> thank you, very much, i'm with archbishop dolan,

cardinal-designate dolan and this is a wonderful place to talk about prayer, the land of prayer and in those in-flight meals, it was not a propaganda for people to become christian or become jewish, it was a psalm. for 30 years, people received that and now, the decision has been made because passengers complained. to get rid of the tradition. how many passengers probably were blessed and lunched it over these 30 years and continue to be blessed and buff it and instead chose the political correctness and you know what? i think it is like forcing a chinese restaurant to get rid of the fortune cookies, you know, food with a message. >> clayton: how much of this is faith-based? some critics have done studies and one olive per customer on a flight, they save x amount of dollars and is it convenient to

put the spin on it to say it is a passenger said it in the complain and we'll get out of it for political reasons but it is really about cost savings? >> no, i don't think so. i think that was clayton, i can't see you from here. they've given an explanation, some people complained, what is happening in our country today, a small minority has chosen to be extremely vocal and to say, separation of church and state, or tolerance, means that there could be no public expression of one's values and beliefs. this is a private company. a privately owned company, who will be offended by a prayer, a very, very small minority, all the things i got the plane, coming here, including duty-free shoved down my throat? i think we need to relax and people need to stand up and say

we will not let our country become a soulless nation which nobody can express their beliefs. >> dave: we want to get in the airline statement and they say, quote we did not make the decision by scoring compliments and complain, we simply think removing them from is this reit thing to do based on alaska airlines values of diversity and inclusion, are you okay with the statement, father. >> those words, adversity, inclusion is the opposite. we want no diversity, we want everyone to be the same. if i get on -- an israeli airline i hope there will be diversity. i hope i get to understand a little bit more about the jewish faith. i think we need relax and recognize when we get rid of people's beliefs, it is doing exactly the opposite of creating a diverse and respectful nation. >> clayton: father jonathan morris, great to see you, live

from jerusalem. >> come over and broadcast from here. >> alisyn: why don't we, father. >> dave: the big guy and i don't mean god, you know, the big guy... >> alisyn: both, whoever you want to call. father jonathan, thanks so much. >> clayton: they still serve meals, that impresses me about the story! >> dave: coming up a car is sinking into deep water and a deputy does not think twice, springing into action and risking his life don't miss how the story ends. >> alisyn: as new york gears up for the super bowl one bar banning sam adams beer. >> clayton: say it ain't so. >> alisyn: the founder is here to react. >> clayton: how can you ban sam adams. ♪ if you're one of those folks who gets heartburn

roasted sweetness, spitiness from the hops and bitterness and the whole spice package. >> clayton: have you poured it in yet? what is in there. >> basic food, really delicious. >> yellow peppers and onions and tomatoes... >> dump everything in here and saute it for a while and instead of water you add the secret ingredient, which is a good flavorful beer, whole bottle of beer and the recipe is on the web site from chef david burke and you can get it at samadams.com. >> clayton: you chose the boston lager, your original, traditional beer, none of the other seasonal flavors, the one you want to go with? >> it is still my favorite, the best beer sam adams makes, what is in my refrigerator and is really big an flavorful, a lot of malt an hops and it stands up to spicy food. >> dave: let's pair other super

bowl favorites. chicken wings, you say those can go with the beer. which and why? >> absolutely. spicy chicken wings, you need a malty beer that will cut through the spiciness and this is our seasonal beer, alpine spring. >> clayton: new one. >> brand new, a fusion beer, part helas and part bach and it is unfiltered and has wheat in it and all of that complexity matches really well with the different flavors in spicy wings. >> clayton: what about burgers? a lot of people will have burgers on the super bowl parties. what do you want to pair with a good, spicy burger? you have jalapenos too. >> a burger to me, beef pairs with boston lager, the red wine of beers and has carmelized malt

that matches the cameraization -- caramelization, and it matches with the juicy burger and has a lingering hop finish. >> dave: you can't pair beer with a burger at one bar in manhattan, foley's, they banned from the super bowl, new york home to the giants, playing against giants, playing against boston, home to the patriots. >> i think they should take a long view on this thing, because, let's face it. if it weren't for the original new england patriots sam adam, the brewer and revolutionary we wouldn't have the super bowl, we'd be watching cricket and singing god save the queen and drinking tea! >> clayton: hear all this giants fans. >> dave: take that, foley's, sam adams, one of our favorite guests, go super bowl, go

>> clayton: shhh... we're still talking beer. now, real estate. the fed expects interest rates to remain unchanged through 2014. does it help the housing market or make the crisis worse? and what if you are buying a home? joining us with tips on what you need to know to buy is real estate expert katrina campen, nice to see you. welcome to the show. >> thank you for having me. >> clayton: generally, we heard the news and it seems like it would be good news on the surface. does it help or hurt the current housing crisis and if you want to buy a house is now the time to do it? >> generally, we have seen a clear turn towards positive

momentum in the housing market and the federal reserve announcing they will maintain interest rates, it certainly will continue to help the housing market recover and in addition we are seeing lower unemployment rates and higher confidence and that coupled with low mortgage rates, is going to continue to spur increased buying. the low interest rates will also motivate people to abandon their capital accumulation. i.e. savings, where they are not earning high returns, in exchange for higher yields such as real estate. >> clayton: if you want to go out and buy a home in the next 2-3 years now that we know the interest rates will stay at that rate until 2014. number one on your list, start living belower means and what does it mean, get your finances in order before you will make the purchase? >> yes, start living below your means and spend less than are making and, unless are going to qualify forth an fha or va loan

you must plan to put 20% down and in addition, many lenders are requiring to see at least 6 months worth of mortgage payments liquid in your bank account. start saving. >> clayton: how do you qualify for an fha loan? >> you know, it is -- it actually depends, every state is different but, in general, generally speaking i would say that people actually need to focus more on the 20% down and start saving towards that because so many americans don't save and that is a main recommendation i give and in addition, i would actually advise that you visit your local bank and start establishing a relationship with the loan officer in that bank. i don't necessarily think you should apply for a mortgage at that point in time. unless you are really ready, because they do have to pull your credit report and that can impact your credit score but ask the bank to give an overall picture of what they will look for financially so you don't

have any surprises later. >> clayton: one thing you mentioned, is go on-line, i think. it is interesting, my father is a realtor and he'll say most people go on-line first before they come to me and ultimately they need to come to me, go on-line first. what are people doing on-line that is so important? >>. >> he's absolutely right. there are free options on-line, mortgage calculators which help you assess what your monthly costs will be. pipi, principal, interest, taxes and insurance. and in addition, many people forget to allocate a reserve for repairs and replacement costs, owning your home is an expense and you have to make sure you allocate enough money up front. >> clayton: we're almost out of time, and your third tip, speak with a loan officer ahead of time. what do you say -- with the bank? >> i think it is important to establish a relationship with a loan officer at your local bank. life in general is about relationships and preparation

and so, by establishing the relationship you are getting ready and will be better prepared and, also help -- they can help you improve your credit score as well which will help you secure lower interest rates, moving forward. >> clayton: like we sue with the recent housing issues, people having the goal post moved, and the call-to-loan person and they say you need these documents and you didn't tell me that before and better to get the relationship started early and, thanks for waking up super early for us in los angeles. >> thank you so much for having me. >> clayton: you bet. coming up on the show, anyone can sling mud and experts say it works, what do voters say when candidates go positive? frank luntz asked the voters that question and he's here, next. >> struggling businesses... growing new ones and rebuild old ones, creating thousands of jobs. men with erectile dysfunction can be more confident in their ability to be ready with cialis for daily use. even if it doesn't happen every day, you can be ready anytime the moment's right,

>> alisyn: you heard before, political scientists say attack ads work. but what happens when the candidates go positive and talk about the issues? frank luntz asked the voters, he joins us live from los angeles. hi, frank. >> good morning, how are you? >> alisyn: doing well. the first ad that you tested was something called bright future by mitt romney. tell us. >> it did incredibly well because it describes exactly what republican primary voters believe in america, not specific. but gives you that sense of an up-beat feel they are desperately trying to see. let's look at the ad. >> this is a business mitt romney helped start. and this one. and this steel mill. mitt romney helped create and ran a company that invested in struggling businesses, grew new ones and rebuilt old ones. creating thousands of jobs,

those are the facts. we expected the obama administration to put free market on trial but as the "wall street journal" said, mr. romney's g.o.p. components are embarrassing themselves... >> alisyn: how effective was that one? >> we have been dial-testing it and that was one of the most effective because it talks about what romney did on a personal level, talks about economic freedom and addresses the job issues the public want to see addressed. and, overall is one of the most effective ads of the campaign season so far. >> alisyn: let's talk about the next ad. this is an ad by a pac, red and white blue fund -- red, white and blue fund, pro santorum pac and the add is called pride. let's watch a moment. >> the principled conservative, rick santorum, champion, leader, reformer, he is determined and will never waiver. >> what wins in america are bold ideas, sharp contrasts, and a

plan that includes everyone. a plan that includes people from all across the economic spectrum. a plan that says we will work together to get america to work. >> rick santorum the conservative we can trust. red, white and blue fund is responsible for the content of this ad. >> alisyn: lots of patriotic symbolism and nice music and we can see it did well. >> the line, we'll work together to get america to work. is one of the strongest sound bites of the campaign. and one of the reasons why he, who has been out-spent in some cases 15-to-1, why he's still in the race and the language is powerful and you see that in the ad. >> alisyn: let's look at newt gingrich's latest ad. main street. >> say baloney. we can create millions of jobs, right now, my plan includes repealing laws that raise taxes, and cutting taxes so america is

the best place to invest and create jobs... >> alisyn: how did that do? >> it did well, he talked about his plan and it resonated with primary voters, particularly the tax issue and his feeling of don't say die, trying to do it differently than the obama administration is doing and it also tested very well. >> alisyn: frank, we want everyone to know you will host the florida primary preview tonight at 9:00 p.m. we'll tune in for that. >> have a chance to see gingrich and santorum and alan west face tough question from florida voters, no media involved. it is basically politics unplugged. and they said stuff that really surprised me. >> alisyn: frank luntz, thanks, more "fox & friends" in two minutes. over twenty delicious varieties ha sixty calories oless per serving and are now weight watchers-endorsed. try green giant frozen vegetables with sauce.
