michael, thanks for joining us. i know you don't think any of them should get out or at least not the top candidates -- >> no. >> and not tim pa latina. a lot can -- pa latiwlenty. >> no. we put in place a proportional delegate provision that allows for a greater lengthening this campaign. we don't want this primary over on the 1st of march. we want to be able to allow all the candidates to get out, make their chase, state it well, make their argument, raise their money. it gives candidates like a bachmann or a ron paul or a pawlenty who are maybe at the margins financially or at the margins politically a chance to kind of push the envelope a little bit, push the party in a different direction, maybe have a different kind of conversation. i hope that that is the way this unfolds because that's how we intended it. we don't want a quick primary. i know a lot of media have talked this up like, okay, this is almost over. you know, perry's in. and he's the guy. well, not necessarily. i thought he gave a presidential speech today. but he's now going to run the gauntlet like the rest of these candidates. that could help this proce

michael, let me start with you since you are there. who has the most at stake there today? >> well, i think, you know, the sense really is that both michele bachmann and tim pawlenty are the ones battling it out. either one could lose big if they really do as well as everyone expects. they ex-michele bachmann to win and if she doesn't that could be bad. tim pawlenty has to show his campaign has some energy here. >> let's talk about the non-front-runners. and i think you and i can agree. who doesn't want to eat deep fried butter. that's at the fairgrounds but i digress. someone like a newt gingrich, for somebody like a rick santorum for ron paul, is this make or break n. >> you know, i think ron paul is the one thing you -- one candidate you have to set aside. if ron paul wins the straw poll they will dismiss it. he has fervent supporters. he has to keep going. he is not easily deterred. supporters are very, very -- >> someone that learned to run a campaign on almost no money. >> absolutely. he has raised a lot of money in the past. he's eager supporters. that's -- that candidate set aside. i think some of the other ones like gingrich and santorum, they do

michael steele, let me start with you. who has the most to gain and lose this week in the straw poll week? >> the most to gain this week would be timt to second or third in that poll. >> wow, you're giving him third. that's awfully kind of you. he only has to give him third? you don't think it's first place -- >> no, well, we change the process under my chairmanship. we designed it in a way it can get a little -- you don't necessarily have to win it all up front. a guy like pawlenty -- >> he has to get -- >> he has to show a little game in the top three. >> how big of a week? >> not a little bit. >> what is the pressure on michele bachmann? >> we expect her to win. if she doesn't, that will be a surprise. and she's got another problem, is that rick perry looks like he's coming into this race, he goes -- >> announcement he's already starting to raise money. he could announce the week after the straw poll. >> raising money usually means you're going to run. >> but that's not relevant for this argument. >> for the straw poll but he goes at the same group of voters she goes for. a big challenge. >> are you hearing any serious chatter a
