chris: the wrong man. just when republicans accepted mitt romney, this week the spreek puts the focus on -- supreme puts the focus on the health care law, a law romney inspired in massachusetts. how can he be the number one attack dog and how can he promise to kill it? just as he wraps up a huge primary win, romney hear as top advisor say all his campaign promises are, he uses a watergate term, inoperative. is he stuck with the etch-a-sketch label for good.

no, this is about supply. >> chris: let's turn. the supreme court holds three days of hearing on obama care starting tomorrow. a recent poll showed scen% think that the court should strike down the entire law or individual man date. two years after it passed, why is obama care so unpopular? >> guest: you can see the polls as do i. people don't want to start over and refight the political battle. but implement the law smartly and give states more flexibility. at the end of the decade republicans are going to overturning obama care. when the reality of health care takes place. most of the law doesn't take affect until 2014. two and half million people have health care only because of the health care law. five million seniors are getting over $500 in prescriptions and women are not treated more. preventive care like mammograms in place. i think they are seeing it differently than was advertised. >> chris: how confident are you that the supreme court will uphold the man date. >> guest: republicans and conservative jurist offering stron

chris: back to you. the president said in that nice byte we saw from the press conference this week that he is sort of happy, bring it on, kind of thing. good luck and all this. is he really happy to be facing romney? i thought based upon the reporting before this he was always a little worried about the guy, because he's this guy, you know, with the big family and the good name and he's got a clean record, good hair and all that. >> i think they probably would much rather face santorum or gingrich. but it is also true that they've been preparing for romney. and they also looked at the republican side and they see this fierce battle, and they do see that romney's numbers are plummeting, partly because he's having to -- his favorability is way down and he hasn't had a narrative for a reason for why he should be president, which is a very big argument that he's going to have to make. >> two things have changed. the economy has gotten better, and that helps obama, his approval numbers have gotten better and

>> no, chris, i don't.n old saying in politics that presidential politics, chip, maybe you'd agree with this, no one ever stops running for president. they just run out of money, so i guess in newt gingrich's case, he'll continue to righ get checs from the casino owner in las vegas. >> chris: he's gotten more than $10 million in his super pac. >> if that dries up, how does he go up. for rick santorum, the money will stop flowing. how does he go on? it's all about ego after a certain point. at some point their supporters will say enough already. the point i would make, chris, is the real winner here is president obama. if you look at what's happening to the likely republican nominee, his unfavorables are higher than his favorables now, independents have been alienated, the republican enthusiasm is down. in swing states where they ran these ugly campaigns, ohio, michigan, elsewhere, he's now behind in the polls. the longer this goes on, the harder it is. it presents a strategic dilemma. as long as he has to a
