rhetoric, he's -- newt is an embarrassment from governor chris christie and sarah palin said poor chrisistake and got his panties in a wad. kilthat is an interesting visual. like with the west side story." the nives are out. i like it. i don't know. who is your money on in this little battle between palin and christie? i like them both but i think christie comes off forceful in a way i wish romney would come off. >> eric: were your surprised when chris christie said newt -- here is the point. say that newt wins the g.o.p. nomination. doesn't the left, doesn't obama just use chris christie for the ad campaign? >> bob: they are probably not going to use sarah palin. put it that way. that was a good interview on your part. panties in a wad. >> eric: it goes on. >> bob: were your microphones working? >> eric: i tell you - -- >> bob: i think you will hear it over and over. fact of the matter is he was embarrassment to republicans in the house. a great guy to take republicans to majority. people will say about newt gingrich a great field general but not a guy to run things. that is what happe

here's what chris christie said. >> here's what chris christie said. >> i would be kind of pissed if, he's over in china represents my administration, and you know that part of the time, he's running for president. this thing did not come up organically, that's not how it works, and all of a sudden he lands back in the united states and there's a presidential campaign waiting for me. i'm sure he didn't know about no when he was in china. my issue is not that he worked for the president. mitt thinks it's an issue. my issue is why was he being disloyal to the president while he was working for him. that's my question. >> i think it's a nonstarter in terms of voters interests. first of all governor christy who we all like. he gave this guy a job. huntsman wasn't out begging for a job. i don't think it works in terms of voter's perceptions, if you're living in berlin, new hampshire, and you're worried about job security, you don't care if the guy was in beijing three weeks ago, what's he going to do for me now? i can't get over dog trained. >> he's saying it as an executive. i can unders

. >> this looks like your boy, chris christie isn't running. to his next? >> well, i would like to say that if my boy chris christie does not run he will go from being my love to my enemy for life. i'm not designing my shoes. i think he should run for one thing, the country needs him. i think he is head and shoulders above the other candidates who are fantastic. one thing is worth noting. every single republican in the debate monday night is better than john mccain. it's not that i intensely dislike any of the other top candidates, we have a whole mainstream media against us. we need a star. christie also won the governorship and one of the most west wing states and union. i was shocked, shocked when he won. i would've lost bets on the. i don't think it's a guarantee he will win reelection to the others at the next time he runs come off your plan to run for president in six years. and thirdly, we have an amazing republican farm team coming up. the attorney general of virginia. if he runs for governor he is like chris christie to give stunningly articulate,

[laughter] >> it looks like your boyte chris christy isn't running. who's next? >> i would like to say that i believe chris christie does not run he will go from being my love to my enemy for life. [laughter] and now designing my parachute so i can buy it in the i really do thing he should one fervor and thing that the country needs you. i think he is head and shoulders above the other candidates who are fantastic. one thing worth noting is every single republican in the late monday night is better than john mccain. [applause] if it's not that i intensely dislike any adverse but people mainstream media against. if you need a star, chris christa also won a governorship of the most left-wing states in the union. i was shocked when he won. i was never lost that on that. i don't think it is a guarantee that he will win the election that will be a loser the next time he runs for your planning on running for president in six years and third we have an amazing republican team coming up that the attorney general of virginia if he runs for governor he is like chris christ

i would not boo chris christie. great stuff coming up. >>> live from studio 7, that was such an announcement. how ridiculous is that? get you up to speed for this monday, january 9th. >>> okay. it is primary eve in new hampshire if you didn't know it republican presidential candidates are all over the state, scrambling for those last-minute votes. newt gingrich is holding a town hall meeting right about now in manchester, new hampshire. polls are showing that mitt romney has a rather substantial lead heading into the nation's first primary. gingrich is in fourth or fifth place, depend wig poll you have been looking at and we have been tracking them all as the candidates trek across the itty-bitty state of new hampshire. several of

i want to ask you about chris christy. he's really afraid. >> he's willing to let it happen as long as his fingerprints aren't on it. >> he's watching what happened to mitt romney and the trouble that romney is residing over his objections over massachusetts at the time. he was the governor when gay marriage was legalized. it happened on his watch. he's been roundly criticized by the conservatives. what's idiotic about it, the social conservism, cain is out, perry is out cantor rum, who's going to be dropping out soon, it's tough getting anywhere with gay bashing. it's really on its last legs. even if the republican party the old gay bashing part of their base is dying. young evangelicalses are not gay bark. catholic churches won't have to marry same sex couples just as they don't have to marry couples of differing faiths. >> your home state of washington, i met the governor the other night. she has had a turnaround. >> she has evolved. she used to say that washington it is now ready, thanks to the efforts of one of our op

mitt romney, chris christie on stage. over your left shoulder, you see a working debt clock, so you know they're going to be talking about the economy and national debt and how that is of utmost importance to americans. chris christie, one of the biggest assets for republicans and mitt romney right now taking the stage. thank you, jim. of course, you can trust the best political team on television for complete coverage of the new hampshire primary. join wolf blitzer, anderson cooper, candy crowley tuesday night. jon huntsman still in the race and he is letting his candidacy ride on his performance in new hampshire. ahead, we'll ask our experts if he's gained enough traction there to keep going after tuesday's primaries. it's a bit like asking if they want a big hat... ...'scuse me... ...or a big steak... ...or big hair... i think we have our answer. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. will be giving away passafree copies of the alcoholism & addiction cure. to get yours, go to ss

chris christie talks about the government unions and the teachers' unions that way. and i don't even think ronald reagan would have talked about teachers' unions the way christy does. no republican could talk about these government employees working for a failed system, by the way, without spending 20 minutes weeping about some schoolteacher they had once. not chris christie. and amazingly, the people like it. and he inspires others like scott walker. >> host: arnold is in smyrna, tennessee. you're on with ann coulter. >> caller: hello. how you doing, ann? >> guest: fine, thank you. >> caller: yes. um, i have a couple of questions, but first i have an invitation for you. um, i would like to invite you to go to my web site. it's love god is love.org, or you can read and download for free a book that i co-authored, and the c in co is capitalized. and the title of the book is define 9/11 inter-- divine 9/11 intervention. i think you'll find it interesting, especially pages -- excuse me, i stutter. pages 31 and 32. >> host: all right, arnold. >> caller: here's the questio

chris christie has it right, cut taxes. newt gingrich has it right, a flat tax.t, your guy taking money out of the private sector that could be used to grow the private economy and.... >> first of all. for you guys that are saying, isn't it great to lower taxes. how come you were the guys when obama wanted to extend the payroll tax cuts and republicans came back and said we'll only extend the payroll tax cuts to pay the top 3%. >> pay for it. >> absolutely we should pay for it. i'm willing to. last time you were on the show, i don't want to pay more taxes. i'm all in favor of the jerry springer box on the tax form, if you want to volunteer money and warren buffett and liberal friends in hollywood, to pay down the debt. i give enough. >>> first of all we can never say about that. when it. when it comes to our own country and providing to our own country. than the don't know what enough means. we're perfectly okay to send sons and daughters to fight in war to die. if you want the state to confiscate money. >> i never said they should confiscated. >> but 50% of my i

. >> and i go one-on-one with new jersey governor chris christie. he promised to make an unconvention allen doors -- unconventional endorsement. and herman cain delivered. he's here to explain. >> modern liberals are just, i think, frankly, totally off the deep end. >> and we have the highlights from a morning show after newt gingrich is accused of playing the race card in south carolina. our count down to election day continues. hannity starts right here right now. >> and there was some real bombshell, revelations on the campaign trail, including texas governor's rick perry's decision to drop out of the ways for the nomination. this morning a very emotional governor perry delivered that major news as he announced his endorsement for an ole rival. watch thanks i have come to the conclusion there is no viable path forward for me in this 2012 campaign. therefore, today i am suspending my campaign and endorsing newt gingrich for president of the united states. >> now that endorsement is likely to dramatically shift the dynamic of this primary contest l

chris christie had a pretty chris christie-type response to the hecklers.et's play it for you now. >> americans are right to be angry. they're right to be disappointed in the government that in washington, d.c. is doing nothing but posturing and bickering and solving nothing for the people who wind up needing -- >> christie kills jobs! christie kills jobs! >> really? you know, some may go down tonight, but it ain't going to be jobs, sweetheart. >> reporter: so there you have it. a very chris christie-style response to those hecklers. those hecklers were eventually led out of the room here. and the speech sort of went on without any major interruptions after that. but it does goes to this overall prom that mitt romney had today out on the campaign trail. earlier today at a separate speech here in rochester, new hampshire, he was giving a speech and he talked about how at one point in his lifetime, he feared the pink slip. he was worried about losing his job. that caught a lot of reporters off guard. they've been peppering the romney campaign throughout the a

ok now let's take a look at chris christie who is campaigning for mitt romney and running with a little bit of a hard time dealing with some of the occupy wall street protesters they came out and saying it kills jobs and he gets all flustered does know how to handle it chris christie on the other hand is what he does. really. thank you don't go down tonight but he going to be john. i guess that's why people like him. i mean i don't like the condescending i look at usury he's going to come to new jersey i have the soft bigotry of low expectations the fact that he's not in a federal prison right now is a sign that he's already punching above his considerable weight i think useful. well i think you know there's two input two possible implications there either tony soprano is paying that woman a visit that night or chris christie is paying that woman a visit at night either of which are terrifying to me a visit but rather than a little scare or what the later did that is basically say that this is obama's fault that he's turned you people against me and mitt for standing up what we believe

. >> neil: chris christie? >> i don't think he is considered conservative. he would not be, in my opinion, chris christie would not be a vp on the ticket that is going to cause them rally around the ticket. it could do more harm than good. this san example. this is not just promotion. what if he adopted 999. we've got 20 congressional candidates all over the country that are wanting to adopt 999. adoption mean means you adopt the concept. we will are producing the legislation and we will go back later after they read it, what a novel idea. then get a commitment and this is how i believe we could provide some updraft to whoever is the nominee if they do something dramatic like adopt 999. right now, he doesn't have anything else as adopting 999, the revolution. >> neil: you said 999 eleven times and in connection twice. 999 wins. >> you taught me that in marketing class. >> neil: herman cain, good luck. he was kind enough to join me tonight on fox business as we take apart the numbers. >> as we told you, reports out that new hampshire's attorney general they a

>> chris christie by far. it's almost political malpractice that governor romney hasn't been able to take his greatest strength and run right towards it. instead, he sounds ashamed of his business record. he's got to embrace it the way chris christie's doing there. >> one of the things is release his tax returns, can that help? >> the damage has been done. he should have done it three, four months ago. getting it out tomorrow where a lot of people will be focussed on the state of the union address, he's going to try to bury it a bit, but certainly not going to help him, he's going to stop being hurt by the issue. >> the other issue, the way he sort of dealt with all this, is throw money at it. he's going to do it in florida, they have ten media markets. romney and$10 million, in south carolina, his super pac spent almost the same. can newt lose on the air waves the way he lost in iowa, what do you think, mike? >> gingrich campaign tells us they may not go all in in florida for that reason. he's raised a millio

we'll tell you how he's taking advantage of it. >>> in "psycho talk" tonight, new jersey governor chris christies trying to get mitt romney's campaign back on track after their disasterous loss in south carolina, so he goes on offensive. christie is ignoring the thousands of jobs mitt romney destroyed as head of bain capital and instead pretending mitt romney created just a bunch of middle class jobs. >> this is a guy who has shown the american free enterprise system can work, can work to create jobs across america. you look at places like staples and sports authority, everybody who works at those places today has mitt romney to thank. that is hi contribution to show the free enterprise system under attack by the obama administration, does work for real people, middle class people, because let me tell you the people working at sports authority and staples, david, those are middle class americans using those jobs to put food on the table and a roof over their heads and send a kid to college. >> did he say they are middle class americans when it comes to the economy? chris christie, top surrogate

that, at times, did downsize some companies and then those same protesters tried to go after chris christie said christie kills jobs. they were changing christie kills jobs and that's when the new jersey governor went after those protesters. here's what he had to say. >> americans are right to be angry and disappointed in a government that in washington, d.c. is doing nothing but posturing and bickering and solving nothing. for the people who wind up needing -- needing to get this done. >> christie kills jobs! >> really? you know, some may go down tonight, but it's not going to be jobs, sweetheart. >> so there was chris christie with a very chris christie-style moment. and, you know, just to tie this all together, don, there's a common thread in all of this. and that is, as i said earlier, mitt romney's time at bain capital. part of those reasons was you heard him talking about those times in his life he was worried about his paycheck. the reason you heard those hecklers is because of this issue of mitt romney's time at bain capital. the newt gingrich forces are going after romney on this i
