i had lunch like this in a setting with paul simon. he seemed to ridicule that notion. what he said was kind of said the budgets, the combined state budgets of arizona and massachusetts would keep the pentagon running for about three days. the point is this was much bigger and the budget things are so much larger than that of a medium sized state. i'd like you to respond. >> the principal is the same. you make tough choices. do you provide the kind of executive leadership that you have to provide in these circumstances. i've gone through the last three weeks in which i've been putting my tenth executive budget together. there may be fewer zeroes on the end of the number. i had to confront the fact that my top budget guy had come to me and said sorry. i don't know what that would work out to at the national level. it's significant. i've had to go back to the drawing board. i'll have to say no to a lot of people, a lot of constituencies and priorities that i believe in very strongly because the reality is that those revenue estimates are down another $200 million. i don't

i had lunch with senator paul simon and he seemed to ridicule that notion. , kind of derisively, that the combined state budget of arizona and massachusetts would keep the pentagon running for three days. the point he was making is a much bigger arena and budget things are so much larger than that. but the principle is the same. do you provide the kind of leadership that you provide in these circumstances? i have been putting my tent executive budget together. there may be fewer zeros at the end of the number but i have to confront the fact that my top budget guy came to me and said a result of the uncertainty in the economy, we have to revise our estimate down $280 million." proportionally, i don't know what that would work out too, but i have had to go back to the drawing board and say no to a lot of people and a lot of constituencies and priorities that i believe in very strongly because the reality is those revenue estimates have me down $200 million. fundamentally, you have to make some very tough choices and confront meeting unmet needs and a certain finite amount of resources.

. >> speaking of speaking to them, you have got paul simon, the hedge fund billionaire in new york whoought desperately by both rubio and bush and signed up with rubio. >> that was a very big development behind the scenes. mr. singer is a billionaire, he's got a lot of money that he wants to invest in politics. he's done it in the past. he was a big fish who was on the sidelines and both -- well, all sorts of candidates had appealed to him for him to side with marco sent a major signal to other big donors and there are lots of them who are still looking at the field and haven't engaged yet. >> robert, singer was someone that jeb's people had personally gone to in new york and tried to woo. have we seen any sign that other bush people are defecting for marco rubio or is this just the first warning sign? >> within the republican establishment, you see there are two main camps, the bush loyalists and others. what rubio has found is he may not get the bush family people, the people who have been ambassadors for bush and bundlers for george w. bush, but there are other donors, paul singer t

for people who work close to the candidate, and i started by driving paul and jean simon all around newpshire in my own rental car, it is a certain loss of intimacy with the person you knew for six months. on the other hand, for a guy like ben carson and certainly donald trump, it is a symbolic lift for them. the very appearance suggests a certain authority they did not have 24 hours earlier. the service, although they are doing such an important job, and they would not be there until secretary johnson determined the threat level was high enough to warrant them, makes it look like a real campaign. the one thing donald trump did not have going for him, he now has, which is the u.s. government has determined this gentleman is important enough and threatened enough to warrant this kind of protection. john: talk about the symbolism. i am thinking about how retail politics work. hillary clinton goes to the iowa state fair and she is trying to move and she cannot move more than a few feet. what is the downside? josh: it is not just the secret service is the problem. president clinton would sa
