mitt, mitt, mitt, mitt!itt, mitt, mitt! >> let me ask you -- let me ask you here a question, did obama care encourage businesses to hire more businesses? no! >> did dodd frank get banks to renegotiate and make more loans? >> no! >> did the national labor relations board attack on boeing in south carolina encourage employers to expand here? >> no! >> did efforts to block the domestic production of energy and the keystone pipeline speed job creation? >> no! >> and did those billions of dollars that the president sent to his green energy buddies give anyone here a job? >> no! >> mr. president, we welcome any good news on the jobs front. but it is thanks to the innovation of the american people in the private sector and not to you, mr. president. >> romney! romney! romney! >> this president's misguided policies made these tough times last longer. earlier in the week, he spoke with a woman from texas during an online event. she told him that her husband has been out of work for three years. president obama said t

mitt romney.started the day leading newt gingrich, scoring double-digit leads in most of them. it looks like that's how it is going to turn out. and now with just 43% according to the associated press, not just -- he is ahead of gingrich by 48%. last week's campaigning saw a brutal ad war. along with personal attacks from both men of course. gingrich accusing romney of being a proabortion, liar and liberal, and romney who seemed to enjoy unhinging gingrich attacked him as a washington insider with more baggage than the airlines who was forced to resign as speaker while in office. so in this hour together it will be a moving target. we'll discuss the outcome, look at the numbers, hear from some of the candidates hopefully. and determine where we go from here. david shuster in tampa florida. on set with me for the entire hour, governor elliott spitzer good to see you. >> good to be here. whoever wins the republican primary is the republican.com knee. >> i think this is the first of many dominos to f

they've come back to mitt romney. i think you'll see that happen again. >> how much are you concern about the potential back lash to all the negative campaigning? both from mitt romney's side and newt gingrich's. rick santorum hasn't gotten involved in that, certainly nowhere near the extent of the other two. people are beginning to say, look, he might be thriving with the co-conspirator vote. by the fact he is not beating up on his opponents. >> there may be some of that. now that he's entered the top tier of candidates, i'm sure he'll get more scrutiny himself from the press and the other candidates. for example, piers, if you look at his record, he is not the perfect conservative or pure conservative that he claim to be. he's been involved in all sorts of ear marging and pork barrel spending tactics, as you may know. he's voted many times tone crease the debt ceiling. more of those will come out as this race unfolds. and then also, keep in mine that the notion that he hasn't been involved in negatives really isn't

barack obama wasn't matched up against mitt romney there and i think mitt romney you know many of the you know the way in which he has been very hostile i think to the hispanic community perceived hostility towards them you know he has no real immigration reform plan that has that will play a role in the general election the republicans being against the dream act opposing sort of my or you know there are a lot of number of issues that are important to this man a community that when they're pitted when he's pitted against a living breathing human being you know those numbers will i think dissipate he may not do as well as he did in no way as long as they any republican is going to do to well. john you well as if we look back at two thousand and four george w. bush won forty four percent of hispanics now a lot of change since then but part of the problem for president obama it's not just enough to say well look at me compared to new look at me compared to romney. those people just might stay home and that's a key problem for him if the young people are disillusioned and they stay home

mitt romney is saying you are not. >> craig crawford, this is "countdown", mitt romney now still withthe vote up over newt gingrich by 15 points. we haven't heard yet from newt gingrich. >> maybe we won't. we will be back on "countdown". who really had a great war room when he ran the first clinton campaign. the documentary, if any of you are political junkies and you've seen the movie, the war room, well that's what we're calling this. it is a battle. it's a battle for the future of the country, it's not quite the same kind of combat when you think about war, but it is war, nonetheless. we want to make sure that we arm our viewers with the ammunition that you need to be able to be informed in battling yourselves across kitchen tables across america, on the internet, you name it. we want you to have the latest and greatest. we strongly believe that this war room has a purpose, and the purpose is to make sure that citizens have the information, but also have motivation to change the world. >> as you know, the polls had no sooner closed in florida than msmbc, fox news, and associate pre

mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt mitt. >> this campaign -- this campaign than replacing a president. it's about saving the soul of america. president obama and i have very different visions of america. president obama wants to grow government and continue to amass trillion dollar deficits. i will not just slow the growth of government, i will cut the spending of government. i will not just freeze government share of the total economy, i will reduce it and without raising taxes, i will finally get america to a balanced budget. [ applause ] president obama's view of a free economy is to send your money to his friends. my vision for a free enterprise economy is to return entrepreneurship and genius and creativity to the american peop people! [ applause ] on one of the most personal matters of our lives, our health care, president obama would turn decision making over to government bureaucrats. he forced through obama-care and i will repeal it. [ applause ] you know, like his colleagues in the faculty lounge, who think they know better, president obama demoniz

mitt romney might get one. but the big battlegrounds are ohio, tennessee, oklahoma, and the question mark of whether gingrich can come back for a fourth or fifth life, whatever the count is right now, by winning his home state of georgia. >> gloria, how damaging -- it seemed to me there were three damaging hits on rick santorum. he went for this great position. he had a bad debate. i felt he was very weak that night. secondly, that ridiculous statement that president kennedy made him puke. come on, that seems to be bad politics. >> i think he needs to grow up. >> we call him puke in britain. it's the same thing. it's the excretion of vomit or something. president jfk. come on. and the last thing that i thought reamly was completely wrong, badly timed, inappropriate, and damaging, was this thing about the president being a snob for wanting people to go to college. i couldn't fathom what political damage he could do in the state. >> he was going for the voters he actually got, which were the most conservative vot

>> yes. >> most likely mitt romney. >> mitt romney. >> amy?boy, i predicted hillary clinton in 2008 so i'm not sure my prediction is worth much. p mitt romney. >> carol? >> i'm going to say do great next week and go on and be in the race to do it. he can't just -- >> you have to be in it to win it. panel thank you all very much, we will reconvene on super tuesday. it will be a fascinating evening. my guess,we'll end up none the wiser on super tuesday, but we shall see. >>> when we come back, did he lose his job? if i have any soreness, i'm not going to be able to do my job. but once i take advil, i'm able to finish out strong. it really works! [ laughs ] [ male announcer ] make the switch. take action. take advil. but when she got asthma, all i could do was worry ! specialists, lots of doctors, lots of advice... and my hands were full. i couldn't sort through it all. with unitedhealthcare, it's different. we have access to great specialists, and our pediatrician gets all the information. everyone works as a team. and i only need to talk to one

he can say things that mitt romney would never say. mitt romney can have plausible deny blt.oesn't commit him to the regular norms. it's the best of all worlds possible for mitt romney and give gives donald trump another leg up on the epchilon. >> what does he bring? >> well -- >> you and i were saying a couple of days ago, mitt romney is well ahead in nevada. he doesn't need this. >> if you're looking state by state and nevada he doesn't need donald trump there, but i think it plays in a larger strategy of him taking support anywhere he can get it especially if the support is deep within the conservative base of the party. remember, mitt romney jumped on the endorsement that received from christine o' donnell. mitt romney, i don't think, would be taking this endorsement or doing an event. he didn't do an event with jon huntsman. if mitt romney had confidence that the conservative bah base was with him and if those in florida that voted for him, sizable chunk said they could maybe change their mind later, there's no way he would put himself throughout to align himself with so

and the chance of candidate republican candidate mitt romney. from the white house state. lonely and welcome across a computable cause the us presidential campaign become a horse race pitting incumbent barack obama against republican mitt romney if this is really the case what are romney's chances in november obama may not be a president of substance but few doubt his ability to campaign and maybe even wind . to cross out the u.s. presidential race i'm joined by john mchenry in washington he's a partner and vice president of ayres mchenry and associates also in washington we have doug there now is a senior vice president at s k d knickerbocker and in dallas we cross the katrina pierson she is the executive director at watch the vote dot org and a board member at the dallas tea party or at crosstalk rules in effect folks that means you can jump in anytime you want between if i go to you first i mean after florida we have mitt romney again for the fourth time seen as the frontrunner for the republican nomination is going to stay that way. i don't think it's going to stay tha

mitt romney had about 37% of the vote. rick santorum over 40% and ron paul reporting 11% and newt gingrich around 14%. we'll have the number finals in a few moments. we appreciate everybody's attention. we appreciate everybody who has been a part of this important process. >> and can you tell me what this meant in terms of turnout and how this might have been a factor this the case? >> we saw a lot of enthusiasm among the colorado republicans to participate in the process. it has been very exciting tonight and i'll tell you, rick santorum surprised a lot of folks in terms of his turnout, his willingness to come to colorado and compete for the votes and the enthusiasm that we saw across the state is pretty exciting. >> exclusively on cnn, you heard it here first. santorum made a push right at the end. we know el paso county was not in colorado springs, a lot of the evangelical christians there. do you know what the percentage of victory was for santorum down in el paso county? >> his margin of victory was about 1,300 votes

you can hear the crowd chanting behind me, mitt, mitt, mitt. this is a very happy crowd tonight, and for good reason. mitt romney is doing something tonight he hasn't done in this campaign so far. that's win two in a row. wolf. >> the event tonight where you are, where in las vegas are you? a casino or hotel? >> reporter: we're at the red rock casino sort of on the western edge of las vegas out by those red rock canyons so beautiful here in this state. it's been a crowd waiting out outside of this ballroom for the last couple of hours to get in. they started to let this crowd in about 30 minutes ago. you can see people of all shapes and sizes coming in here. families, and there's a good sizable crowd of mormon supporters for mitt romney. that's not too surprising, and according to all the entrance polls, 26, 27% of these republican voters casting their votes for mitt romney in these caucuses are from the lds church. there are some of those folks here tonight as well, wolf. >> a lot of supporters of mitt romney in las vegas tonight. a dramatic w

i think who likes mitt romney? who thinks mitt romney.t's my guy. >> well you are talking about an enthusiasm gap. there's an enthuse am gap that i'm sure you haven't seen play out in the primaries. will he be able to mobile nice enthusiasm? >> you will see two of his sons were pretty enthusiastic. >> and like three hedge fund managers on wall street. so we have so much more to talk about here. what is going to happen in february as this thing unfolds. we'll hear the winner's speech. we'll get to rick santorum the loser's speech. a lot of telling moments right now, come right back. >> in the state of the union address the president said these words. let's remember how we got here. don't worry, mr. president, we know exactly how we got here, you won the election. a great tasting mint core, frosted in powerful cooling crystals. ice breakers frost. feel the frost. [[vo]]...we're the idea nobody wants to hear. ...until the truth reveals itself. boat-rockers. and above all... and there's only one place you'll find us. weeknights on current tv.

mitt romney was dishonest. what does he think mitt romney will do. >> after the break. james rosen lays out the road ahead and the hunt for delegateless . final thoughts from the panel as we get toward midnight on the east coast. you name it. i've tried it. but nothing helped me beat my back pain. then i tried salonpas. it's powerl relief that works at the site of pain and lasts up to 12 hours. salonpas. taxing, so free file from the irs does the hard work for you, with brand-name tax software or online fillable forms and it's free. so give yourself a break at freefile.irs.gov. >> we can tell you that fox news projected mitt romney is the big winner. but we can't tell you who is second. there is a battle between speaker newt gingrich and ron paul. santorum will finish fourth. we'll look ahead in the race. super tuesday features sevenprimaris and three calk - caucuses. will most of the drama be gone by they offer thoughtos that. >> over the next month 202 delegates will be up for grabs in six states. after that gop candidates will compete for double of that in one day. t

what might this endorsement do for mitt romney? >> well, mitt's already in the lead out here.e's obviously leading in all the polls. rick santorum kind of made a run at him here over the last couple of weeks. we're seeing more polls showing mitt pulling ahead after the cnn debate and jan brewer is the latest of the republican establishment out here. he had the endorsement of our attorney general, our secretary of state, and a number of other high ranking republican officials. so mitt had a real campaign out here, really for months now. and rick has not, i think mitt has it locked up out here in arizona. >> having said that, would you think that mitt romney would have a bigger lead than he does? >> well, yes. and that's, i think, going on all around the country is that there is this concern among a lot of conservatives about mitt romney and his real bona fides and whether or not they can trust him to actually be a conservative governor or a conservative president once he's elected. >> let's talk about what -- in addition to immigration, what would you say are the top two or thr

mitt romney will zero. rick santorum gets them all. mitt romney won this state in 2008. did the entire republican population of minnesota move out of state to be replaced by all new republicans in the last four years? what happened? was there some sort of mass exodus missed by the national media? there is no way this makes sense on its own. i need a minnesota republican to explain to make sense of this for me. i hear we have one. joining us tonight from his home state of minnesota is the state's former governor, former presidential candidate and outspoken supporter of his former rival, mitt romney and man who cringes when i call him my welcome guest, tim pawlenty, thank you for being here. >> now i know why my campaign didn't work, i didn't have the guy with the tie or woman with the tie. the light bulb has gone on. i appreciate the the austin powers clip. can you remember the name of the hairless cat or dog that was austin powers pet in the movie? >> no. >> it was mrs. bigglesworth. >> you needed a mrs. bigglesworth. you dropped out of the race in august you said you we

[♪...] >> announcer: bank robbery certainly is a frightening crime. after all, bank robbers stole $43 million in one year. but identity thieves? try 37 billion! and guess how identity thieves are getting some of that money. by taking over our bank accounts. they may not even need your social security number anymore. all an identity thief may need are a couple of simple pieces of information, like your mother's maiden name or the city you were born in, and they could add their name onto your bank accounts in order to make your money their money. you need help. [whoosh, clang] you need

, mitt, mitt, mitt, mitt!at we're going to see ahead if he's the president, run-away spending, record debt. for an encore, he wants to raise taxes on job creators and small businesses and families. and we are not going to let him do it. and this campaign, i'm offering a real choice and a very different direction. i have a plan that will restore america's promise to more jobs and less debt and smaller government. president obama is making the federal government bigger, more burdensome and loaded. i'll make it smaller and si simpler. and it's about time for that to happen. he raised the national debt. i will cut cap and balance the budget. he passed obamacare, i would appeal obamacare. he lost our aaa credit rating. i'll restore our aaa credit rating. he rejected the keystone pipeline. i'll get us the oil from canada we deserve. and by the way, i'm going to open up the lands for development so we can finally get the energy in this country that we need at a price we can afford. look, when it comes to the economy,

they both support mitt romney. >> hello. >> good night for mitt romney, in almost every sense. looks like his campaign is back on track and in some style >> you're right. it's in a big style. i think this week was a great week for mitt romney. i think there's no doubt he performed well in the debates. tonight was a great night. >> connie mack, it's clearly been a bit of a swings and round-abouts campaign with swings and troughs and different people winning in different places. i suppose we saw in romney this week, we saw the lion in him beginning to roar. was this a sign of his character that you were familiar with? are you surprised that he's now beginning to beat his chest a bit? >> no, i'm not surprised at all. in fact, i think what we saw in the first debate here in florida was mitt romney saying america is worth fighting for, and he is going to put everything out there on the line to do it. and his message about jobs and the economy and the private sector know how to do it -- his professionalism, his character, his ethics, that's something we can believe in in the state of

mitt romney is in trouble. mitt romney is in trouble. this is a crisis moment. the single best thing that could happen top mitt romney in michigan and therefore for his presidential campaign overall, the single best thing that could happen would be for something to come along to split the vote against mitt romney. to split the anti-mitt romney vote, to split the support that for these last couple weeks has been going all to rick santorum. the only thing that could save mitt romney right now is something like a $10 million injection in the newt gingrich campaign. tada, thank you sheldon adelson, casino guy. thank you for keeping alive the one guy that can split all the anti-romney vote that is out there. newt gingrich may have had a terrible, horrible no good bad couple of weeks. at this stage, newt gingrich is the single best thing mitt romney has going for him. steve schmidt, senior strategist for the mccain campaign and msnbc contributor, thank for being here, nice to sigh. >> great to be with you, rachel. >> you have played this game from the inside. you have

but within the margin of error of mitt romney. mitt romney is very well organized.coming to my house, for instance, from mitt romney. television isn't as important in the minnesota market because it's so very grassroots. have you to get exactly to the people who are likely to come out. and newt gingrich has been to minnesota many, many times as a speaker. and he has a lot of deep roots there. so, when i say it's up for grabs, i mean it. it literally could go to any of these four candidates. >> we're out of time. do you wish you would have stayed in the race? >> oh, i wish i could have. what i like most of all were the debates you moderated. cnn did fabulous debates. and i miss the debates most of all. >> you still got your -- you're still a very young woman, eight years from now, a lot of time to rethink your strategy down the road, congresswoman. thanks very much. >> thanks. niese that's nice for a 55-year-old to hear. >> okay. congresswoman michele bachmann, pretty young lady still. anderson, back to you. >> wolf, we're keeping our eye on a big problem for the cur

and mitt romney seems to represent -- mitt romney seems to represent the establishment. the base doesn't like the establishment. and, therefore, he is fighting like crazy to win the very republican voters that any republican nominee will get in november. and he said that he doesn't recall a potential republican nominee with this much difficulty at this stage since general ford, somebody who had to fight that hard for people who were going to be on the republican side. >> well, if you don't like the dog food, i'll starve you until you do. so i'm going to get rid of all of the other dog food and all that's going to be is me. that seems to be the strategy. this next week, we know they're going to try to beat santorum in ohio. knock him out. >> and that is the fundamental, strategic doctrine of the romney campaign. it goes back to the very beginning. and the guys i mentioned before, mike murphy and alex castelanno, they're from early it rations of romney as a politician. and they're carping from the sidelines and they say hey, we remember a guy who was an engaging guy, who w

if ron paul ends up beating mitt romney. ron paul might be tapping into something kind of similar there. >> what you just said about the political dynamics of maine do not lead me to think that mitt romney will be strongest. it will be between mitt romney and ron paul, who is contesting there and who is putting in effort. we'll be hearing from the head of the gop party in maine, announcing the caucus results in just a little bit. here on special coverage on msnbc of tonight's maine caucus. michael brendan doherty, what do you think of the diedynamics? >> i think there's a populist anger that's out there. and we've seen it expressed. it's hard to translate that into real politics. i think that might be ron paul's challenge tonight. ron paul appeals to a lot of people who have been alienated from politics for decades, that's why you see all of these strange, political barnacles on the "hhs paul" is that these people haven't been in politics for long and they express themselves through the internet. but it's hard to motivate th

mitt romney is the favorite. of last night he dropped by one of his phone back to thank people for getting out there. this is what he told the volunteers last night. >> you can be out with your familis and doing other things. but getting people to come to the caucaus. i appreciate it gingrich's last appearance was before a group of faith leaders and asked them to pray for him today . he may need those prayers based on the poll results. he told me he expect to do well >> well, our goal is trying to -- he won by a majorit yewe are working to come in here second. they are porportional . we want to pick up delegates here and colorado and maine and minnesota. he will continue on even if he loses. and the mormon vote is important here. represent one in four voters went 95 percent to mitt romney and while the latest polls show that maybe he support is softer and because some is going to ron paul. >> and they were in the single digits . that doesn't reflect the ability to get people out to the caucaus. he never left afte
