i think that with mitt romney s he's going to have to overcome that. make sure people know who he is, that he's a competent leader. once people identify with the actual candidate, those other problems usually go away as long as you can overcome the issue based upon personality. >> dean? >> i think honestly the best way to break this down is exposure. romney's got the money. invite everyone in america to a free ski trip in utah. get to know mormons. i found them to be the warmest, nicest people i met anywhere. it is like robert said, like john kennedy. 1960 he went to houston and gave a speech to the southern baptist ministers, addressed it openly. i found as a muslim touring the country they have an open mind. you have to answer the questions directly. publicize it, put it in the media. answer the questions that americans have and you'll see. it'll be overcome. >> all right. buzzer beater here, 20 seconds each on this one. let's take a listen to what con than o'brien had to say about mccain's endorsement of romney. >> big story john mccain has endorsed

newt gingrich is going after mitt romney today, isn't he? >> reporter: he definitely s he released a scathing new ad in which he's calling mitt romney a liar. >> what kind of man woulds lead, distort and deceive just to win an election? romney denied seeing a fast ad but romney's on campaign paid for the ad and romney's on voice is on the ad. if we can't trust what mitt romney says about his own record, how can we trust him on anything. >> reporter: some harsh words right there. we have a new poll. it was taken before last night's debate. it paints the picture of what's going on. now you have mitt romney back on to with a nine point lead over newt gingrich. that momentum for newt gingrich might be sliding off a bit. on the campaign trail you have mitt romney saying that he won these past two debates, won these battles and he will be debating president obama soon. >> one of the stories that was lost was a strong performance from rick santorum and apparently some great one liners from ron paul. you saw it. what can you tell us about it? >> reporter: you've got rick santor

some of the candidates are making some head way on frontrunner mitt romney. fox 5's stacy cohan has the latest. >> reporter: make no mistake, mitt romney still enjoys a double digit lead in the polls in new hampshire. however, there are indications his lead may be slipping. romney has been campaigning in the granite state sinwhen he ma presidency. but he is facing increasingly aserbic attacks from his opponents. ron paul is up from 17% to 20% in the polls. rome me dropped from 40% to 35. what about the man who has spent the most time on the ground in new hampshire. that is former utah governor jon huntsmanen he skipped iowa to focus on new hampshire and he is in third place but may be closing in on ron paul. one poll shows him at 16%. al of this as candidates staged two bruising debates in just 12 hours over the weekend. the events featured aggressive attacks on frontrunner mitt romney who is accused of failing to support conservative values. the blood letting continues well beyond tomorrow as several campaigns are already looking ahead to the first southern state to

and challenged mitt romney to release his, at the same time, critics are looking at the tax returns and pointing out that a lot of his other income, book and other income comes from his sporation had is not listed therefore his real earnings are actually not disclosed by the income tax returns for 2010 that he released? >> i'm not aware of that, i do know that mitt romney who has been asked over and over again about releasing taxes cannot answer a simple is question in a debate, when he should be ready to answer the questions. why not release the taxes and get beyond it. all of his advisers tell him to release them. he cannot figure out to release the taxes. newt put his 10-40 up on the website. everyone can look at it. >> as the head of the super pac, your response to all of the criticisms of the film, about bain capital and washington post and others, they say there are errors, we talked before about the fact that you have said, if there are errors, mitt romney should respond. but isn't your responsibility as the head of the super pac to make sure as gingrich said himself that everything in that film should be accurate? >> everything is accurate. and look, it's funny

[applause] >> newt gingrich s acced mitt romney of being anti- immigrant, and by the way nobo wants toording to one poll, romneyy is leading and gingrich byby 15 points among latinos. how to republican n candidates get around the immigration issue? >> look, i think it is a fairly safe issue nowow. it wl be a diffificult issue in the general election when you have a different audience. when romney is trying to do - -- watch romney is trying to do is push a littlee bit to the right which is wnot where he wants to be because he will have a hard time scrambling in the general election going to the center. when you pull the rubio card, in florida, is over, you have won the argument. gingrich is the one tryingo be accommodating this whole riff of do you wantt to grab a grandmother and put her on a bus. romney had a smart, a short answer, saying that the problem is not 11 million grandmother s. as a major problem about immigran education cos medical care schooling and jobs. ithe had a good answer yesterday. >> jeanne? >> i talked to white house fks who feeeel, as charles stated, that this has

returns i think it will be a real embarrassment and i'm sure michael's research showed in 1994 it s mitt romney demanding edward m. kennedy release his tax returns. >> right. and there was that demand at that time so that has come back as in issue, yes. >> the handling of the tax issue, charlie has been clumsy on romney's part in a cardinal rule of damage control if you don't have anything to hide you don't behave li you do. and think wha he's trying to hide, if you will, is embarrassing stuff because it will turn out he pays the taxes at the same rate at warren buffett's secretary. it's going hurt him in the wall. the whe house is ecstatic and already getting ready to tee him up in the fall. as just another robert baron. just like a hedge fund trader and all this stuff. it fits into eir populist rift and it will be a problem for romney. >> charlie: do you think they can make it stick with bane capital and his business perience it goes to the heart whatever he says makes h have the potential of being a good president. >> it's the best they've got probably charlie particularly if there's seven o

it was early morning before we found out mitt romney won the caucus. fox 5's tom fitzgerald shows us where the candidates are headed next. reporter: tonight mitt romney is in new hampshire after just barely winning the iowa caucus by eight votes. >> my goodness, what a squeaker, but it sure is nice to have a win, i'll tell you. reporter: romney is trying to build momentum by getting the endorsement of senator john mccain who defeated him in 2008. >> we will get an overwhelming vote that will catapult this candidate to the white house. reporter: iowa's results are shaking up the republican field. rick santorum's second place finish is giving his campaign new life. >> third thing, thank you so much, iowa. [ cheering and applause ] reporter: ron paul came away with third place. >> we have had a fantastic showing for this caches. reporter: gingrich blames negative ads for his fourth place showing. >> governor romney ran a relentlessly negative campaign of falsehoods of. reporter: while rick perry said he would return to texas to reassess his campaign. >> assess th

andrea mitchell, the "washington post"'s nia-malika henderson and "the huffington post"'s howard fineman. if mitt romney wins in new hampshire, this would be the first time a republican has ever won the first two, iowa and new hampshire. but he still can't win those who call themselves very conservative. just 14% of them voted for him in iowa. that enthusiasm gap is a young problem for republicans this fall. they're asking themselves what would it look like if the republican convention come tampa time with the more moderate romney accepting the nomination? would republicans by rallying around him or dying inside? howard, that's the question. what would it feel like for a mostly tea party, conservative republican party, angry at obime with all kinds of attitude and gut feeling to put a guy like mitt romney on the stage who's so cool and unseemingly conservative? >> first of all, never would victory seem more boring. second, a lot of diplomacy would take place before the convention. if mitt romney wraps this up fairly early you'll be seeing diplomatic missions to the tea party, from the cull clurl right.

>> let''s take a look mitt romney. it was so interesting bng there. i was at the event, the breaast whwhere he has made a commtbout firingg people. it was very much in ththe context of -- he said immediately i like ring people who do not provide good services. he was talking a about giving consumers the power to demand good services from a busess. we all want good services bu it went horribly astray. give us s some ps. how do you takee somethingng that has been saiout of context and now it is all over the e media in some many different formrms? >> this is a really great questi because witith 24/7 media,a, anythg can be taken out of context. you have to choose your words carefully. if p people turn them around, i think you have to immmmediately respond. you have to p it to context and be veryransparent about what you are talking about. it is reaeallyasy to have that happen in a campaign becse y you have somome many peoplple who o are close to whatou are doing. in a general busiss sense i think you can be measured about what youou think. the messagee is

'sot a lot of money. he comes from a lot of money just like mitt romney. he's also a mormon and there's a lot of evangelical christians on the record saying we can't vote for him. he is a reasonable candidate who kind of believes in science but he doesn't have a chance and he'll be done after new hampshire. that's sad. >> you said done after new hampshire. okay. mitt romney telling an iowa audience, guys, what, exactly, he thinks of the promises president obama made on the campaign trail. take a listen. >> the gap between his promises and his performance is the largest i've seen, well, since the kardashian wedding and the promise of till death do we part. >> all right. now he might get some i guess pop culture credit for that one, but if the iowa caucuses were a reality show, what would it be? will? >> well, here's the problem with that question in my estimation, kyra. the iowa caucuses are a reality show. let me show you something. this is the numbers that everybody's playing for in iow
