and the protests -- >> i'm asking if they have to choose between a romney -- >> no -- >> a gekko type and a regular person. >> first off, i don't accept your analogy that romney and gekko are one in the same. so let's take that apart. >> so greed's not good? >> that has nothing -- romney has -- >> you're saying -- will you say greed's not good? >> what i'm saying chris is what you're trying to do is disingenuous. >> there's frustration throughout the country. >> right. and that's not reflected, if romney is beating obama by nine points in new hampshire, clearly, that's not reflected in the voters' attitude. >> yeah, but romney's not well known. >> romney's not well known. he's been running for president for five years! >> he's been keeping out of the controversy. i think the voters -- >> if this is the strategy, bring it on. >> they will say, where's the record? they'll say he's big business, and they say, hey, we liked you to the center, but not to the left. >> the let me get you some stats to firm up -- i don't think it needs firming up. every poll that's taken by every legitimate o
