gaffes and they're instead resorting to the oldest trick in the book, blame the media but even rich lowryhe editor of the staunchly conservative national review, even he wrote the press doesn't need any excuse to be either superficial or unfriendly to romney. now, you would think after so many mistakes, romney would be taking a break from the trail and regrouping with his advisers. nope. he's actually campaigning in the crucial swing state of colorado where he made today yet another flip-flop. just days after he vowed to end the federal wind energy production tax credit. that supports the wind industry, he changed his tune. well, sort of. >> romney: we're going to continue to see wind and solar as important parts of our growth of our energy resources. >> jennifer: maybe instead it was just kind of pandering lip service in a state with about 5,000 citizens with wind industry jobs. mitt, what is going on with your campaign? so for insight on what it is like to be in a republican war room we go to rick tyler in washington. rick was newt gingrich's campaign spokesman. he is president of rode

let's talk about it with rich lowry, the editor of "the national review."tory deserve coverage, rich? >> i think so. it was a big event. you had hundreds of thousands of people turning out at these restaurants to show their support, and beyond that, jon, it's just kind of interesting. it involves a hot button culture issue, involves waffle fries and fried chicken. you'd think that makes good copy, but it was almost ignored in the major newspapers and in the broadcast networks for a couple reasons, i think. one is a lot of these reporters just aren't plugged into these social conservative networks where this kind of bubbled up from mike huckabee and other talk radio show hosts and on facebook, they're not plugged into that. and, two, they have very little sympathy for these protesters. there was a reporter down in florida who got in trouble because he posted on facebook these contemptuous, insulting remarks about the pro-chick-fil-a protesters, and i think that is the way most reporters probably regard these folks even though they're not as blatant about it.

conservatives consider him one of them because conservative thinkers like the bill crystals, the rich lowries of the world are all giving him protective gel around him. >> in terms of -- >> he should be the pick. >> in terms of his brand but i do think as mark says he is on a national stage. he is going to get a look and veting that he hasn't had before. and you saw it not on budget yesterday but on social issues which is not what he is known for but for which as john said he's very conservative. he was asked about this forcible rape bill that he signed on to that aiken also was a part of last year. his answer was rape is rape. and he thinks that mitt romney's position on abortion which is din than his own is a step in the right direction. that raises other questions. because that's different than his opinion. and so i think you will start seeing that if he starts giving more interviews. he has yet to do a press avail in the real way with the press traveling with him for two weeks now. if he starts answering more questions, you will get more questions of that nature. >> rose: . >> if this guy
