5:00 pm
some of these and we're on it like nobody's business. one foot ahead. ♪ >> hello everybody, i'm eric bolling along with andrea tantaros, greg gutfeld and dana perino, miami, orlando and jackson and this is "the fiv five". five". >> our top story today, the florida primary all eyes are on the sunshine state where the polls close in just about three hours. this showdown, a very important one, because it's a winner take all race, all 50 delegates go to the winner. things are getting heated in florida. take a listen, to the frontrunners taking shots at each other. >> i know the speaker is not real happy, speaker gingrich, not feeling excited these
5:01 pm
days. i know, it's sad. >> here is a guy in the '80s was an independent and '92 voted in the primary for paul songus the liberal candidate and he's questioning my credentials. >> he's been flailing around a bit, and trying to go after me you watch it and shake your head and painfully revealing to watch. >> i challenged you how out of touch with honesty, romney's schedule will be. >> and successful in the other races, but, is it working? >> it is working. i mean, there's a saying in politics, the only thing being the worst guy to go negative is to be the second guy. and because mitt romney has the money and able to go far more, he's 95% of the ads that mitt romney is taken out have been negative and 13,000 ads total saturating the state and that has done major damage to newt gingrich who doesn't have the financial funds to compete
5:02 pm
and it will be hard. i redikt romney will win tonight and hard for gingrich to move forward, but he can stay in because of the-- because of the math for a long time. >> i got a phone call today and spoke to governor sarah palin and described it this way quoting her, the underfunded candidate can't unring the bells romney is ringing. she makes a very good point. 15.2 million dollars versus 3.7 million dollars. romney outstng gingrich. >> does that include the super pac as well? well, i mean, you know, 13,000 ads in a state i don't care how big florida is that's a lot of exposure. there's some indication, by the way, this race tightened up just slightly as of last night and part of that i think may be overkill and done so much of it. let's keep in mind, romney was in there running ads before south carolina was over and campaigning for 500,000 absentee ballots. if romney wins by ten points or better, gingrich problem is not the math, of the math
5:03 pm
certainly works in his favor. the problem he's not going to have money to go forward and neither will rick santorum. >> eric, do you have a special phone ring for her, and sarah palin calls, drop everything? >> bat signal, you look out the window and see the shape of sarah palin's head in clouds. >> and i did a head on green energy and ask you about newt gingrich. >> is that her pin? >> oh, andrea, you went there. >> i love it. >> i love it. >> i'm teasing you. >> there's some rumblings among the left that because of the negative tiffness of the campaign in florida and especially romney's, 15 million dollars spent on mostly from primarily negative ads, it's going to kind of inspire or bring the angst, conservative angst. >> of course in the general election, right. >> and keep everything going longer. >> and i think, it could make a fair comparison though to the clinton, obama, 2008
5:04 pm
primary in that record and clinton and obama when it gets down to about may, real nasty, saying things about each campaign saying things about each other they would like to take back and amend your words and three months later he becomes, secretary of state and she's ended up being the most faithful, loyal and best cabinet secretary that he has. and i think that might be good spin from the left, but i don't think it's real. >> you want to talk super pacs or you want to-- >> i don't want to, i don't want to talk super pacs. >> you don't want to talk. >> want to talk about super pecks, i do bench wrest, incline and decline, in a row and alternating biceps and triceps, that way you never get sore. >> we'll be back. >> is there a reason we should bring the audience in, i want to talk about super pac, greg says no, i don't want to talk about super pac. >> it reminds me of an old,
5:05 pm
married bitter couple in florida arguing about the food at denny's and personal attacks at least are not boring. i kind of like to hear about open marriages than open borders, spices it up and especially when you talk about it every day. >> let me ask you, i guess we're going to get to the women voters. >> yeah, don't take my segment. >> what do you see. is florida unique itself? certainly looks different than-- >> obama had a good point yesterday. florida being quite representative of maybe the rest of the america, and took any state and said, what state proportionally would look like the rest of america and squeeze it into the panhandle, it's florida, yeah, he's winning, what's interesting in the mayorist poll romney makes winning household making $75,000 or more and also by 37-28. $75,000 or less household income. college educated, noncollege
5:06 pm
educated. evangelical, independent. so, florida has been a place where they've better resources, they're very organized and they were there early, that makes a difference. >> you've got to worry about the weather, like iowa if it dins below 95 degrees, nobody is going outside. >> everyone is making hay of i-4 corridor from the east coast to tampa on the west coast u i noticed romney's speech is coming from tampa on the i-4 corridor and newt gingrich's speech is going to come from orlando, also on i-4 corridor. >> and win general elections, that's a part of the state where there are more independent voters, and it's also-- retirees in a lot of places in florida, particularly on the gulf coast of florida. so, i'm not surprised he's doing that. let me make a point about the the clinton-obama race and the analogy. >> and they were close in
5:07 pm
delegates the whole time and battling each other and there were, there was a lot at stake every week. after this election, if romney wins it it pretty big, then, the differential is going to be so high it's going to have a tough-- grirn and santorum has a tough argument why i should be in the race. >> and after, he'll play stay until after super tuesday and people in the party will urge him to get out of race. again, i was crunching the numbers and mathematically gingrich can stay in this and looks like a war of attrition, gingrich is not going anywhere. >> how is he going to support it it? how do you, you can't keep gas in the the tank. >> even if he's losing by double digit in some of the state he can be collecting delegates. the question is-- >> and who is going to give him any money. >> i ran through some of the numbers, what i should have said. two groups that romney loses, strong tea party supporters and very conservative republicans. those are activists, so, i guess it's conceivable that newt gingrich could continue
5:08 pm
to get free media attention without having a buy tv ads and then, if people are this committed to him. they'll be out organizing and see if they can at least keep the fires alive and see if something can happen. >> can we do a couple of quick polls and roll through them. the first one we have lined up is florida g.o.p. public policy poll and romney up by about eight points, anyone want to comment? andrea, i've herrard a lot wide are. >> some polls show 26 points, but i think it's going to be double digit. it's important what the margin is that he wins by and how much he spent. mitt romney spent a ton in iowa and south carolina and spending a lot of money and he's not knocking it out of park. so the margin is going to be very, very interesting to see how much he's spent. and let's look at february. they're facing now a bit of a dry hole in a sense, you have caucuses in nevada, colorado, minnesota. and in the-- in early part of february.
5:09 pm
and there, romney has been organizing and no chance they've got that and missouri is a primary and not binding and main caucuses in the arizona primary and michigan primary and michigan has to be in romney's column. >> born there. >> can we throw that last poll up there. unhappy with the g.o.p. voters, the pew research poll, get that quickly, greg, help us out here, clearly, the republican voters aren't happy with their choices. >> sooner or later they've got to stop sending the food back. >> gotcha. >> that's an appropriate way to put that, greg. >> like at denny's? >> by the way, make sure you keep it right here on fox news, our continuing coverage, primary coverage continues, but before, that's right after "the five." before that it's our rear admiral versus the lt. colonel, beckel, versus-- that's his nickname. rear admiral. >> that came from bob. our guy responds to bob. >> and there's a story about

that. >> guess what? bob's reaction and and don't forget to e-mail us at i have five@foxnews.com. ♪ buzzzz, bzzzz, bzzzz, bzzzz, you know, typical alarm clock. i am so glad to get rid of it. just to be able to wake up in the morning on your own. that's a big accomplishment to me. i don't know how much money i need. but i know that whatever i have that's what i'm going to live within. ♪ ♪

5:15 pm
the women's voting patterns, between married women and single mothers. single mothers vote overwhelmingly democratic and always have and suburban mothers vote, and democrats among women for some time now. i think that this, a campaign, turn women off. you get negative like this and i can't imagine you could walk away from this feeling good about the campaign. >> and i have-- >> i disagree with that. i don't think they're being turned off because they haven't turned it on yet. i think they're mistakenly thinking that everybody is into this as much as we are. most the women i know are not going to pay-- >>, but the likely primary voters, women who are informed i think are turned off by the negativity and i'm sure the scandal didn't help newt gingrich. >> scandal magazine and love it. >> not in their white house, they like that in their hollywood. >> us weekly, and star, and i buy two.
5:16 pm
>> and you're probably right on. the negativity, i guess that romney has 15 million versus a 4 million numbers to spend in florida. >> let's take a look at the poll that nbc poll and this is just in florida, florida women voters, and using romney over gingrich, 47-26%, that's not what happened in south carolina, how can you explain that? you know a lot about it it. >> a lot more money spent in florida and the bible belt. you know, anyway and-- >> i read an interesting book from a woman in the wall street journal, she's 61-year-old retired county worker, public voter and she decided she was voting for romney and they asked her why and she said the extramarital affairs didn't bother me, that much. she said, but, i-- when he, when newt gingrich responded to john king, remember that debate at the cnn debate everyone thought was a big comeback for newt gingrich, she cited that
5:17 pm
interchange between john king as a reason she didn't want to goat for newt gingrich. >> they think that maybe romney is nicer. there's a saying that a man will cheat on his wife will cheat on his wives and might play a role. >> who has wives. >> i'm saying over the long-term, dana, please, but come on, look at the two, i mean, you can't discount, you know, surface, for-- >> and i think that, i think that i think that-- i don't think it's the negative, it wasn't the woman thing as much, first of all, look at the florida women electorate. a lot of it is this moved down from the north. they're much more moderate women than they are in south carolina, night and day difference. and i think the nation is to be with somebody like romney and fits their political more-- >> if you look at the demographics, they are, you're right. they're more, they're more moderate and if they have a negative ad in the morning and
5:18 pm
at night, the primary voters and they see a hot mitt romney. they're going with mitt romney and newt does, that's one of his weaknesses and he tends to look arrogant. >> and the women are one of the most important demographics for both the republicans and the democrats going into 2012. president obama's numbers as they've gone down with almost every group has certainly gone down with women and i think that's an economic freedom issue. >> absolutely. >> economic security. women who have anxiety. >> are you dreaming with this assessment? we have andrea tantaros, saying that women in florida are voting for mitt romney because he looks better than newt gingrich. >> i think it's a factor. like, looks-- >> michele bachmann and you had sarah palin. >> no, no, and-- be honest, why do you like palin and bachmann. conservative women are beautiful and-- >> look at jfk. it doesn't hurt him.
5:19 pm
i'm not saying women, we're not dumb, saying he's hot i'm voting for him. especially republican primary voters. when you have an angry newt gingrich he did cheat on his wife. he's angry and don't like to hear his tone and angry ads about gingrich than romney and think-- >> and the other thing is, and looks do matter. the last time they got elected president as heavy as i am is william harris taft. >> i was reminded about the line in top gun where they said to tom cruise your ego is writing checks that your body can't cash. in newt's case, he's writing checks his campaign can't cash, he's running out of money. can you imagine women being forced push newt along, no. >> i think that some of the best campaign workers are women, organized and women who support gingrich and the strong tea party and conservatives that i said that romney loses, i think some of
5:20 pm
those women, will keep it going. >> an increasingly small percentage. >> i'm going to stand up for the florida female g.o.p. electorate and say, i think you're smarter than that, you're not going to vote for one or the other. >> did one of them send you that continue. >> grandmother did. >> well, huh. >> yeah, i know, right. >> you know the past segment is going to be a headline. >> has anyone seen a pin? >> the close-up. >> your feminine side. >> and that's aren't cz's ladies and gentlemen, it's real bling. >> thank you for helping the economy. >> and you ought to wear that. >> we're going to move on. and do you think that president obama is exploiting the navy seals for political gain. that's what one seal is saying and the five of us are going to debate it next. ♪ i'd race down that hill without a helmet.
