rove says he is quoting from, the part mr. rove extracted that quote. watch. >> a lot of people have asked how did you feel when you first heard that it was bin laden and that he had been killed? the truth is i didn't have a lot of time for feelings at that point because our guys were still in that compound. it wasn't until i knew they were across the border, they were safe, everybody was accounted for, including the dog, that, you know, i allowed some satisfaction. >> he took the harder and the more honorable path. when i saw what had happened, i thought to myself, i hope that's a call i would have made. >> i hope that's the call i would have made. that means something very different than that's the call i would have made. does this sort of quoting technique seem familiar to you? >> senator mccain's campaign actually said, and i quote, if we keep talking about the economy, we're going to lose. >> it's going to take a new direction. if we keep talking about the economy, we're going to lose. >> i think it is an important that mitt romney lies a lot as a

karl rove is way out on this one. let's bring in communication analyst and former communications director for the democratic national party. why is roves doing that? >> what else does he have to talk about? if it is not such a big deal, why didn't they do it when they had a chance? >> the economy isn't recovering and killing osama bin laden isn't a big deal. >> that's right. don't even think about that little part about the definite that president obama inherited and that surplus that president bush blew away. >> so as a former dnc communications director, what's the best way to respond to the way rove is doing this. if he's doing it this early, it's not going to stop. >> it's not going to stop. it shows frankly they're scared. they know their ammo is dwindling. not so confident about going after obama on the economy. here's the truth. you and i both knows as americans it's very hard to take down an incumbent president particularly when he can make the argument things are getting better. people will not want to switch

rove, i am. and there is no doubt about it. i see the only state of all of these states we're talking about that rick santorum could possibly win is next, all right? because texas is a conservative state, all right? >> i disagree with you on one thing. i think a conservative candidate could get to the right of romney in california. because you are right it's a more liberal state but it has a very conservative republic party. because it's in certain parts of the state and because it is so expensive to run television in san francisco and los angeles, there will be a bunch of us that will have to fend on cable. more likely to run in bakersfield and san diego than los angeles and san francisco. i'm with you on the fundamental underline which is at the end of this contest, yes, in texas, not romney candidate is likely to win. new york romney is likely to win. california, likely -- i think a not romney candidate but by a narrow margin and new jersey likely to be romney. even on a bad day, let's assume 60% of the people in these state

now karl rove says this is no big deal? >> it was a very big deal.the book showdown, there is a whole chamt on the decision making that led to this decision. and just to give you one little piece of the drama, the cia had estimated that there was a 60 to 80% certainty that the fellow they had spotted in the compound in pakistan was indeed osama bin laden. but yet two days before, actually the day before obama was to make a decision, the cia came in and said we've had a red team look at all the intelligence. these are analysts who had not looked at any of it up to then to just give a final review. and they have actually dropped the certainty to 40 to 60%. so it was going in the wrong direction. vice president biden and defense secretary bob gates both advised barack obama. hey, don't do anything yet. let's see if we can get more definitive intelligence. he took all that information. he saw that a majority, more than half of his national security advisers were against launching the raid and he did it any way. it was a gutsy call that put his presidency

karl rove, why can't we? >> because the big counties that are favoring romney are showing a smaller percentage of the vote in. suburbs are -- basically, we have a burve of big urban and suburban counties. >> are santorum counties out? >> yeah, but it's marian and ottawa, marion is a small, rural county, ottawa is near toledo and could be a romney county and one other suburban county, suburban cleveland county of medine alikely to be a romney counselee. so we have seen it as big as 16,000 and closed to 11,000 and back out now -- >> 12,000 right now. >> 12,000 votes. >> you would think, looking at this, though, with the big counties out, it is going cotoclose for romney. but will it close enough to overtake santorum. that's the part we look at this back and forth and cannot figure this one out yet. >> i was going on ask you, karl because you and i -- joe's contacts inside the romney campaign, not so good. [laughter] >> but we have contacts. we have been emailing them. they seem tong they are going to win. are t

let's bring karl rove back in now. former senior advisor and deputy chief of staff to president george w. bush. karl, what about it? newt gingrich, newt gingrich's campaign. you have in the past you said you don't think there will be a brokered convention. he seems to be counting on that. >> yeah. well he call it a big choice strategy. i think he has little chance of getting his big choice. a big obstacle will be rule 40. the republican national rules say you have to have a plurality of delegates from five states in order to get your name placed in nomination. there are only two candidates who will show up in tampa with a plurality of delegates in five states. one of them will not be newt gingrich. it will be mitt romney and rick santorum both whom already met the threshold. speaker gingrich has a plurality of delegates in two states, south carolina and georgia. little chances he admits of getting anymore between now and the convention. when we go into tampa we'll have two candidates nominated for the presidency. i fin

president is facing with super packs and people like karl rove coming in and helping. >> and that isthat is always karl rove's fault. >> the president spent a lot more time governing than any predecessor did. >> and his his own super packs. and almost -- his predecessors almost three times as many vacation days than the president did. so look. this is a debate that helped every single election where you have an income bent. opposition party blames the incumbent and in my opinion it's a silly debate. it's an election year, he's doing his job and camp wraining. the other side has been campaigning for a year. >> this president never stops campaigning. you heard about civility lately. that is why you maintain only the highest level in this program there. is a crazy moment at one of the fund-raisers. an entertainer named clo green, he must be very popular because i never heard of him before. we're going to listen anyway. take a listen. ♪ [ music ] . >> so you got the basic idea and i might be old fashioned but at a fund-raiser for the president you don't need to use that language and shou

bush senior advisor karl rove, joe trippi and political strategist, mike murphy. welcome. i want to get thoughts about tonight and how it factors in with the big picture, mike, first, to you. >> well, i think we saw good evidence of what i think the fatal flaw of the santorum campaign s you know, like a team that wins two-thirds of home games but lose as way games. if you get rick santorum out of the state he loses and his campaign is unfortunately for him, focused on votes he has. and this not a freedom. he doesn't win. he's got knot going to change this delegate dynamic piling up in romney's favor and has now without winning the narrative of a can't win primaries anymore. bottom line is the beginning of the end of santorum as a realistic candidate for competition. >> and joe, do you agree? >> i think it was a big night for romney and a disappointing night for santorum. i agree he had to break romney in illinois and important for him to do it. from now, it's been the presumpive nominee. it's unclear where san tore wrum is going to be able to pick up steam here. >> and kar

. >> and the thing that is funny about that ad is it was done by karl rove.f you remember karl rove like every other red blooded -- red blooded american. he saw clint eastwood doing a toast to detroit, and he cried his eyes out. this is terrible. i can't believe he is siding with obama. and then he makes a commercial saying it is impossible because he does not wear clothes. >> i am trying to figure out what he just said. >> did you see the commercial he made versus the commercial he condemned? >> i made it back. >> the fact that obama is willing to deal with this gustappo goon, they are sneaky and dom nearing. they are not trustworthy at all. it is like dating a russian stripper. there is nothing there. >> is this from personal experience? >> there is no trust and no love. to think he can deal with somebody like that. after he is elected, he will be taken. >> it freaks me out. that's sketchy alert. >> with putin you are dealing with somebody we want trust, but has nukes. all the russian stripper has is the clap. >> she has nukes too. >> that's bodily nukes. >

karl rove is spending $650,000 to try to mislead people with this counterattack. >> then and now.he difference president obama's administration restricted oil production in the gulf. limited development of oil shale and personally lobbied against bringing a pipeline of oil from canada. >> put up the deflector shield. >> tell president obama bad energy policies mean energy prices we can't afford. >> of course that advertising is complete and utter nonsense paid for ultimately by the oil companies that fund the republicans and karl rove. because in fact, we are at an eight-year domestic high in domestic oil production. all that stuff oh, they're not drilling enough, nonsense! now the price of gas is high. it's at $3.90 now, which is of course very near $4. that's a big problem for everybody in america, but it's not because of domestic oil production. it's not a supply and demand issue. that's why we keep telling you over and over again it's the oil speculators who are doing in that, and we've proven that. how about the idea idea of giving oil subsidies when they've--now this is just
