over at rim, we saw problems apartment scott thompson over at yahoo! we're talking about markuckerberg and, of course, we could think about the headlines of ron johnson as well at jcpenney. here's a guy who has a problem with grand os city. heroic mission is tremendous. the heroic stature has gotten away from him. he's not steve jobs and he can't live like that. to put up 19 minutes of videos of himself while people watch, people don't show up on the road shows and the whole aura of telling quloi es until recently they can't wring their hands and worry about the stock price, he needs to learn a little bit about being a ceo from great folks on his board. >> this isn't a grow into the gig job. wall street wants results now. is he the guy who can deliver? >> i think most great ceos do learn as they go. i think he's showing a little bit of concialtion. we're not going to beat the stock price back up to the $30 offer. i don't know if it's going to slip much below $20. i don't know where the stock will go. he certainly can manage the company and right to not manage around the stock

one-on-one race in that republican primary in wisconsin i think thompson would lose but he's lucky in that he has two conservative challengers, markeumann but also a businessman eric huvde. you look around the country, i think it will be about ten tea party members. that mines that -- that means that if mitch mcconnell is the majority leader, 20% of his caucus will be tea party. now that's not a majority. they can't run the republican caucus but it certainly is a large enough group so that he's going to have to deal with them. >> jennifer: it is similar to what john boehner was facing, not enough perhaps to move him out of position but certainly there could be a challenger like there was with eric kantor facing john boehner and that challenger might be someone like maybe rand paul maybe? >> yeah, i don't see him being a serious challenger. kind of odd isn't it, the two senators from kentucky would be contending to be majority leader. i think mcconnell would win fairly easily because as you know, it is a secret ballot. that is going to be mcconnell's savior if it comes down to mcconnell versus rand paul. >> jennifer: if it works li

thompson, that requires an uncompromising mindset. so how do you break out of those boundaries? >> well, that's, andrea, right on the mark. you've obviously read the book more carefully -- [laughter] i told her it's frightening, she has it marked -- >> they taught me at penn to do my homework. [laughter] >> my students haven't read it that carefully. [laughter] one of the important points, actually, is we're not against being uncompromising. we think in campaigns, as amy suggested, you really do have to defeat your to points. it's a zero sum game, actually, somebody's going to win, and somebody's going to lose. and we don't imagine that we're going to -- we don't want to turn campaigns into a compromising kind of climate. the trick is how do you switch after that and govern? and that's the problem now, people aren't making that switch. they used to be able to do that. they used to be able to do that more even though there was always campaigning because the campaign wasn't permanent. is so some of the suggestions that we have are that to give space for governing x maybe we should -- and maybe we should say the institutions

thompson's margin. what we're seeing is a tivo- person race between but mark newman is showing some signs of life. the kind of collision that propelled ted cruz to victory in texas. it is not clear he is surging to the extent that cruz or murdoch did late. if the anti-tommy thompson splinters' too much, we could see thompson as the nominee. democrats would say they're hiding his lobbying ties and his time in the bush administration if it gets to a general election. the funny thing about this is we will see a clash of two very different candidate. no matter which republican hands of winning next week. the democrat who is waiting for them is congresswoman tammy baldwin from madison which is the wisconsin version of san francisco. the liberal bastion. she has moved to the center with a couple of her early advertisements. she will face an equally tough time statewide. this is a race in which will have one candidate who is too liberal and the other is too conservative. host: mark newman is casting his opponents as the establishment and there is mr. hovde. he claims he is the real outsider. canids are t
