nicky haley as well. >> yes. she has been a rising star in the republican party.een campaigning for mitt romney since the primaries in south carolina perhaps may be able to sway women voters. but really talk about conservative values republicans see her as one to watch. >>> speaking of women ann romney will be speaking tonight as well. >> right. we are going to look to ann romney to humanize mitt romney spoe to spe so to speak to show lighter side of him talking about their relationship it will give us a us a clue. he is running for president but ann romney could be a fist lady. her speech is introducing herself and her husband to voters giving us a sense of how she might be as a first lady in the white house as well. >>> of course chris christie starting it all out. >> could it be a spoiler for mitt romney. there are signs the key votes could sway the election. also lowering the bar. one school says loosening the standard is better for the kids long-term. first let's check in with steve doocy see what's coming up on "fox & friends"." >> good morning ladies. live

mia love, tim scott, brian sandoval, ted cruz, artur davis, nickie haley, luz fortuna and zoreda falleneridessure i screwed up that name. yet polls are still showing that african american support for mitt romney is 0%. (laughter) that's poll. you, my friend, are the margin of error. (laughter and applause) what is going on? again, is this... is this an issue of style and personality? or is there... do the republicans have a problem on their hands? >> two things. first, i am not a 0 and i know a lot of other american black conservatives that are gonna vote for mitt romney. but secondly, the polls are inaccurate in minute based upon anecdotal evidence, based upon people that i know. here's why... >> jon: now, does that usually just... from what i understand that's why they do polls. (laughter) >> yes, but... (cheers and applause). >> jon: because... >> yes, but... >> if it was just people you know, somewhat unscientific. >> now, here's why in that particular poll... >> jon: yes, sir. >> they may have had zero blacks, minorities gonna vote... black specifically were gonna vote for governor romne

we will hear from nicki haley. we'll hear from the governor of the new mexico. what's the problem between the nominee and the party and women? >> it's more broadly, i think, between the party and women, particularly the issue of health care which is why when the akin stuff happened you heard barack obama move from akin's comments on rape and abortion in a heartbeat to health care, to health care, because women have gone through periods during the course of the year of losing trust in the republican's party to take care of their health, to put their health first and foremost. and they have concerns, and i think less with mitt romney than with the party platform more generally. and it's interest-- you know, that's going to be an interesting issue for paul ryan, whether actually he loses votes amongst women. i know the white house is particularly looking at certain states where they feel they have a female advantage, like colorado, where they feel paul ryan's nomination could tip the state in their favor specifically because of the female vote. that's what ann romn

south carolina governor nicki haley spoke about voter i.d. laws and fighting unions but didn't mention the nominee until six minutes into her ten-minute speech. while governor kasich touted his record in ohio, he only got around to romney halfway through his remarks. rick santorum attacked the president's welfare plans with a selection of questionable facts, then celebrated married men and women but spent the rest of his speech talking about all the hands he shook during his own campaign. even chris christie took 16 minutes before mentioning romney. david axelrod tweeted during the speech i know he's going to mention mitt somewhere here, isn't he? eric bates, i kind of -- during christie's speech, it went from disbelief to actually feeling bad for the nominee insofar as chris christie really took a long time winding up to get to the pitch. >> he didn't just take a long time winding up. that wasn't what his speech was about. fundamentally. his speech was about him and positioning himself for 2016 or at least positioning himself on the national

governor nicki haley who pushed south carolina's voter i.d. law. and how about governor suzanna martinez? she slammed the dream act. even her own grandparents were undocumented immigrants. and last but not least, governor 36% approval scott. the man responsible for the voter purge. the man who wants to drug test welfare folks. take a look because these people give an idea of what mr. romney would offer in the white house. and the president has made that clear. >> this time they want even bigger tax cuts for the wealthiest americans. this time they want even deeper cuts to things like education and medicare and research and technology. this time they want to give banks and insurance companies even more power to do as they please. they have found a nominee for president who's promised to rubber stamp this agenda if he gets a chance. we can't give him the chance. not now. not with so much at stake. this isn't just another election. this is a make or break moment for america's middle class. >> so, folks, this is a make or break moment. we are in home s

and heard leaders like governor mary fallon, governor nicki haley, governor suzanna martinez, senator kelly ayote, and secretary of state condoleezza rice. ( cheers and applause ) as governor of massachusetts, i-- i chose a woman lieutenant governor, a woman chief of staff. half of my cabinet and senior officials were women. in a business i mentored and supported great women leaders who went on to run great companies. i grew up in detroit in love with cars and wanted to be a car guy like my dad, but by the time i was out of school, i realized that i had to go out on my own, that if i stayed around michigan in the same business, i'd never really know if i was getting a break because of my dad. i wanted to go some place new and prove myself. those weren't the easiest of days. many long hours and weekends working, five young sons who seemed to have this need to reenact a different world war every night. ( laughter ) but if you ask ann and i what we'd give to break up just one more fight between the boys, or wake up in the morning and discover a pile of kids asleep in our room, every mom

nic nicki haley was considered an underdog until palin's endorsement.otte. and then a last minute boost to another unknown deb fischer in nebraska. on facebook she was quick to take credit for cruise's victory. quote, the tea party is alive and well. now it's on to november. whether you agree with her views or not, grizzly power works. so where's the love for willard? for months palin's had a lot to say about romney. but the one thing she still won't say is endorsement. joining me now is jonathan allen reporter for politico. thank you both for your time tonight. >> thank you. >> sophia, why would palin's support matter to the romney campaign? >> i think reverend al, your introduction was on point. palin appeals to a small but energized section of the base. that's the ptea party. the 2010 election was for the democrats. and i think she has been strategic about how she's picked these races that she'll endorse, who she endorses. and i think in doing that, the romney campaign really needs someone like palin who is a conservative darling to say willard's oka

we had nicky haley. the second hispanic republican in the senate. but brian, nobody brought this crowd to its feet more than the governor of wisconsin here. scott walker. i come with a prop. you see a lot of cheese heads. obviously paul ryan is very popular here being on the particular, being a wisconsin guy. i can tell you, scott walker, nobody lit up this room like scott walker. the first time he was brought on and then after he was done speaking. >> chuck todd speaking while mrs. romney is now coming out to the stage. as we said, this is a planned period of welcome. for ann romney.

was that the stories, each of the speakers told, about their immigrant experience, whether it was nicki haley talking about being the daughter of immigrant parents. others, ann romney referring to her welch. it is a strike contrast between the kind of pride they take in coming from immigrant families who started with nothing and built up significant wealth and achievements all of them, and the party's sort of position on immigration right now. when you looked around the hall -- >> and the nominees during the primary. >> exactly. there is a tension there, charlie, which they clael haven't resolved. the question-- what i felt last night was eye found it a little flat myself. and what i felt since i've been here-- i have a stronger feeling that mitt romney's renting the republican party. and they're kind of renting mitt romney. but the kind of organic connection you found with ronald reagan or george h.w. bush and george w. bush is it of is not there. you could hear it in the way the different speakers spoke about romney's biography. it was all from a kind of cheat sheet, the same thing. but the

nicki haley from south carolina. last but not least, ann romney introduced by the first lady of puerto rico. a lot of puerto rican immigrants in the orlando area. make no mistake, they are trying to turn out the latino vote. having three latino speakers on the convention floor on tuesday, trying to hit at that margin. fascinating for a party that a lot of people say is populated by white men. not the image they are showing tonight, in tampa on tuesday. interesting to see if it works in november. >> first thing, they have to overcome rhetoric in the primary debates on the immigration issue. john yang, ron paul has a lot of supporters. there was a fracas yesterday, they were upset about this new rule change which is going to make it tougher for insurgent candidates, sarah palin and ron paul and others, very concerned about this. what about what they're going to do today when that rule is supposed to be adopted around 4:00 this afternoon? we hear that ron paul may actually be coming to the hall to talk to his delegates.

[ laughter ] >> stephanie: you say my money is still on the stripping joints out drawing everything else -- >> absolutely. we have research data that show that the republicans in places like utah is much more into places with porn. and look who is piling up the endorsements. >> stephanie: yeah. >> and does anyone know where jamie gillis has come down on that matter? [ laughter ] >> what? by the way, chris what was reunite? >> stephanie: it was a seat wine. >> thank you stephanie. >> stephanie: i was very into reunite. charlie pierce great stuff as usual. esquire.com. see you next week honey. all right. 45 minutes after the hour. i just booked my bff. we have a girl segment coming up on the olympics. have
