. >> republican strategist kevin madden is a romney campaign advisor. anne conway is a senior advisor to the gingrich campaign and greg abbott is a gingrich supporter. kelly, let me start with you, you were at the texas conclave if you will over the weekend, a decision by the key evangelical leaders to rally around santorum. how influential was this vote? >> it was really important to vote that it was not an endorsement and it certainly was not anonymous. so there was a nine-vote difference in the first ballot. it's hardly an anonymous. but on the third ballot, there was a consensus, we're really happy that speaker gingrich went into that with a lot of support and came out of that with the same support. it does go to the sound bite, that there's still divided support among conservatives, but the nonromney vote is well above 16%. the question is whether south carolina voters are going to lean into this issue of electability or if they're going to go for ideas and bold reagan type solutions. >> i understand you're with governor perry, but is it -- in list

kevin madden, romney's 2008 campaign adviseor. kevin, great to see you.u think that sort of talk is the right way to go? i mean, you and i have been talking a lot over the past couple months. you have managed expectations you. don't expect to win iowa. not a big deal if you don't. but now it seems things have changed do you think he is going to win? >> well i think there is a lot of moef men tum on the ground in iowa. you know? i think governor romney goiz out to these events, davenport, or des moines, he has had incredible turnout of people out there showing support for him that he does feel warmly now about his chances. but i think what governor romney is talking about is his ability to win the nomination. it starts in iowa. that's something that we have to remember. iowa is not where the clock end but where the clock begins on this campaign. he is going to work hard in iowa, new hampshire, south carolina, florida across all the early primary states to earn the nomination. >> if he comes in second or third is that a romney loss? or do you see it as long

john madden sat through an interview with him. >> my feeling has been that if my father wasn't here we needed someone to run the football side of the building. i needed to find the right person. i believe that reggie mckenzie is the right man for the job. >> mckenzie played for raiders and has been with the packers for 18 years. his former teammates there today say he's the right man for the job. >> he's the guy that paid his dus. he played the game, knows the players and knows what it takes. he knows his game that. is the main thing. >> and and then, 18 years of agreeing that says it all. >> and the fans are ready for a he fresh start as well. nick smith is live with that part of the story oo. and and this will be the ninth season oakland raiders have not made night the playoffs. fans had a lot to say about the organization and firing. raiders fans have a reputation for being dedicated to the team. it's worn like a badge of honor, decisions at the top are watched closely, leaving everyone with an opinion. ron has been a season ticket holder and there is a plan or chess straighted by a

kevin madden joins us, still a romney supporter and a pollster and senior advise tore the gingrich campaign. kevin, could it be a mistake for the romney campaign to push the freddie mac attack when the campaign might be caught in the crossfire? >> i think it's an important part of the contrast before vote earls in florida. right now, i think voters will have to decide whether or not they want a nominee for the party and whether or not they want a president of the country who's been somebody who's been a washington insider, made their career in washington, d.c. or whether or not they want someone like xwofr nor romney who built his career outside of washington, d.c. and as a successful governor and somebody who headed the olympics in 2002. so, those kind of contrasts at a time where voters are making that critical choice in florida and through the course of considerations that voters go through the rest of this primary calendar, it's an important distinction to make and let the voters make that decision. >> newt gingrich did work for freddie mac. romney did not. why keep this storyline going

what do you think about kevin madden's point?e tries to make the point, he doesn't go below, doesn't drop, so he's stable, resilient. don't worry he doesn't ever go above. >> you know, it's a good point for them to make, i guess. it's kind of steady. i know they are banging their heads against walls. last thing is for romney to say we're going to win tomorrow and talk about how he's going to build momentum across the united states and talk campaign strategy. i'm sure they'd much rather him talk about message and we'll do fine. i thought that was -- he doesn't make many mistakes. that wasn't a major mistake but -- >> one of those sound bites that comes back. letmy ask you something interesting about this caucus -- or iowa caucuses. you can go in as a democrat, go to the door and say, i'm going to become a republican for tonight and go in and vote. there's always all kind of conspiracy theories about how much of that will happen and whether there will be spoilers and people from the other party trying to influence. operation chaos

it sometimes can be just maddening. who's the real ike here? who's the real guy? some people have argued that eisenhower met civil rights reform with ambivalence if not outright opposition. they say that he failed to develop comprehensive policies and strategies required to implement school desegregation in the south. it was this failure some revisionists explain was what erupted in little rock. there's no debating this scholar's assumption that eisenhower was less than enthusiastic in his order of school desegregation. but what i will suggest here today is that their claim that the president's failure resulted from an overriding opposition to civil rights is wrong. i will argue it was wrong and i will argue that it was wrong when they did not end the desegregation. i think they missed the mark completely. my main thing, that a close examination of the president's personal and public correspondence and actionses reveals that his approach to all civil rights issues eisenhower adhered to a precisely defined strategy. it was based on two things. first, his own person
