she hired people away, ed rollins running her campaign. she seems to have gotten the message, i need to grow. i need to get better and stronger. if i keep making mistakes, i'm in trouble. >> she has been much more disciplined. she did make a little mess today in iowa. she said it's good to be back in the home of john wayne. it was john wayne gacey, not john wane the action movie star. his parents were allegedly born there. a little awkward. if you go to politico.com, they are the standard for judging these things. she has a long list of falsehoods she made. this matters. >> she does. in the cnn debate, the thing that struck me about her was this was a candidate who had been briefed, and i was told in the briefing she took meticulous notes, paid attention. had some messages she needed to get out. got them out and did well as a result in the debate. you can see how good she can be when she is on message. the problem is when she is out there on her own, and when you're an inexperienced candidate running for president, it's hard to learn on th

the ones that would speak to their interests, but i think that what is very interesting is that ed rollinschele bachmann's campaign. michele bachmann is at least making the moves to have people take her seriously. i don't think at the end of the day that will ever really happen, but at least she is flirting with the presidential run, but at least putting together the notion that she is very serious about running. sarah palin has done none of that, but what she has done and what she continues to prove even with these e-mails is that whatever she does is going to be a huge draw presswise. >> i don't think at the end of the day that she'll run. >> lenny, you mentioned oh, how the mighty have fallen. i don't know if this was one of the mighty you were talking about. what a week for this man now it looks like everyone jumped ship on him, his top aides. this decision, he's going cruising in the middle of a campaign. i mean, what happened to newt this week? >> bad decisions, and this is what we've seen ever since he decided to run for the presidency. this was a huge gaffe to be on a cruise ship h

with her a while and she brought in some people, some from mike huck beebe huckabee's campaign, ed rollins, when he ran for a second term, brought in ed g improvement az, one of the top pollsters in the republican party, brett o'donnell who is one of the best forensic coaches in the rublican party, they are working with her very closely, they are preserving what has made her a national figure among certain americans, while trying to expand her appeal, and if you watched her on her sunday show performances over the weekend, if you watch her in the intervis she has done around her announcement today, he is extraordinarily skillful in choosing words and how she is presenting herself, the mainstream michelle bachmann peoe on the left will scream and howell this isn't who she is, she makes mistakes that -- they are tryingo put that in the past and she is trying to deflect and sand the rough edges off what is a follow dollar rising per, parizing persona to make her more acceable. >> rose:his is chris wallac onunday, roll the tap >> are you a flake? >> well, i think that would be insultinto say s
