i thought that michael medved had a great piece, chronicled everything about romney and em pa sizingtorum, they don't like him either, his value as insurgent, worth noting. >> the thing though about being a bun dit. and i speak as one, this is why i don't do predictions, you can be wrong more than half of the time. almost all of the time and it's like a fortune teller, people keep coming back for more. the most amazing thing. bob beckel the co-host of "the five", i advised walter mondale and now i'm on television. >> jon: and part of the michael medved piece, people tend to beat on the front runner, whether it's santorum or romney at the moment. they feel he can beat president obama and they don't want that. >> that's one explanation, and the other you kind of cover the front runner and go with the guy without the conspiracy theories behind it. i found it interesting, that bret lang, writing in the wrap. last week, mitt romney had the best week in terms of most positive coverage since the campaign began and that's ironic. >> and the delegate count so people in the media does, make a
