so the moment you've lost the bombay is open and the whole barrage of ridicule falls on you.e's the thing to keep in mind about romney's candidacy. again, i'm not encouraging him to make a decision one way or the other. in 2012 he ran about half a point behind where george w. bush ran in the year 2000. the republican party is not a very effective presidential-winning machine anymore. it hasn't been since 1998. this deal about putting things on mitt romney's shoulders and blame him and him alone is going to prevent the problem being solved. mitt romney's famous gaffe wasn't a gaffe at all, it was a doctrine. if he's going to lead the party away from that that would be a very welcome thing from someone who got a lot of votes in 2012. >> i would love to see a presidential campaign where the candidates are fighting over who has the better idea for getting people out of poverty. >> well i would love that and i think something very important is happening in politics right now. you're seeing all the republicans start talking about wage stagnation and income inequality. you've got jo
