again, i think mary catherine hit it on the head. obama field didn't explain thiso explain this but it's true. jon: mare credit cath -- mary catherine, is it workable for the obama administration to say yes, we tried to save solyndra but mitt romney did a bad thing by closing companies or making some successful? i don't know. does the taxpayer -- >> no, it's very tricky. i think they're going to keep going back to this well but the kickoff of this campaign was badly done and the message is pretty muddled. he's pouring billions of dollars into these industries, i guess allegedly argue it's not-for-profit. it's certainly not-for-profit for taxpayers because we're out of luck but allegedly for some sort of job creation. he spoke to people in nevada that employed fiveo that employed five full-time people. i think the romney administration can take the -- make the pitch that if you're a taxpayer, you'd like more of a return on your investment than obama is giving you. jon: are we looking at a campaign, juan, where the obama campaign just

jon: mary catherine, your take on that?bottom line, friends with bunch of really powerful people in washington, d.c. isn't enough to get you elected and shouldn't be enough to take your election for granted. you have to sell yourself to people back home. you have to make people believe you're doing things responsibly and i don't think he did that. another thing going on, marjorie said tea party might not be great organizing around a certain candidate in the presidential primary. i think that is true. they're concentrating efforts on senate fights and will do that in the general election and will have impact on senate and house races. jon: mary katherine ham and marjorie clifton. thank you both. jenna: a new development in a terror plot to take down a u.s. jet leaner. we didn't know the man at the center of this operation was one of our own. today new report the bomber turned out to be a double agent working for the united states and saudi intelligence. and that the device turned over to the fbi was an update of the bomb use

i think you were pointing this out, mary catherine that some businesses fail, some succeed.obama people want to do, especially david objection elrod his senior adviser is make the point, bain has hurt a number of blue collar workers in the country by either shipping jobs overseas or eliminating them. >> i think their point is the exact same argument could be made against barack obama he didn't even use private money he used $60 billion of our money and ended up cutting a lot of jobs. i understand maybe he doesn't understand capitalism. but that is the argument that they are trying to make, and i think it's a powerful one, because romney has actually helped other businesses grow, and if they are telling those stories i do think it dam dampens this attack quite a bit. jon: we have to leave it there. thank you very much. jenna: serious economic concerns for france and greece. we've been talking about what is happening in europe. both of those countries are facing crippling amounts of debt and an important change in political leadership. greg burke is streaming live from rome, a
