maybe that is in their iowa background. hard work will set you free. but you have to be smarter. you have to be open for your customers, when it is convenient for them to be opened. at this point in time, they're finding out they're losing sales, and with the high cost of doing business in the city, they're finding out they cannot afford to do that. the good news is that there is full support from the neighbors who live in the area, and those are the people who actually patronize the establishment of the business community is fully behind it. the code is the code, but at the same time, the hours are discretionary to you. although he has requested for 2:00 a.m. during the week, we think we could spell bad back to 1:45 a.m. and make it in -- scaled that back to 1:45 a.m. and make it in the spirit of closing. that might help. we do not see this impacting others. we want to get an option to people who do not necessarily want to go into a full bar or have spirits. coming into wine bars or -- coming into these wine bars or beer establishments, it is a different experience. it is quiet.

the obama folks actually do think they are starting to move iowa back in their direction. sident at the university of iowa just this past week. they really want to make a big push, but it is very ironic that obama seems to be doing much better in new hampshire, which we have as leaning democrat over iowa. and iowa was the state that launched obama back in 2008. and new hampshire was the state where he had more trouble during the democratic primaries. >> i want to ask both of you this, when it used to be ohio, pennsylvania, florida, what -- where is the change in that? what state will it come down to in november, mark, you first? >> i'm going to say virginia. virginia was a state that actually matched pretty much the popular vote margin in 2008. it has that demographic mix that the obama folks like a lot. i would actually say that who end up winning virginia probably wins the presidency and if president obama wins the re-election, a state like virginia is probably the one who gets the 217 electoral vote or a little bit past it. >> i believe the obama cam pain is thinking lik

now in the three weeks, a lot of the county convention across the country are picking their delegates from the iowa minnesota caucus. what senator santorum needs is a bit of good news coming out of wisconsin so some of the delegates keep with him. so, it's not over. mathematically it's not over. but if the romney campaign has not overexaggerated the expectations, and in fact he wins tomorrow, we are seeing the beginning of a narrowing of this without question. >> bret: you mentioned pennsylvania, that is apri april 24. the real clear politics average in pennsylvania has santorum up about eight points, 8-1/2. almost 9 points there in the average. he was up some 20, 25 points so it's narrowing there. >> these are pretty dynamic poll numbers. they build on one another and compound, public perception changes quickly. i don't think it's impossible that santorum wins tomorrow. the spread is under 10. >> bret: he has outperformed -- >> right. >> in general in the primary season. the polls have not been accurate. tab exit polls that should noterr at all have been inaccurate. interestingly, santorum in a he

the immediate response by so many great oklahomans and just how people help their fellow neighbors and families. >> from iowanebraska there were more than 20 reports of tornadoes over the weekend. >> elizabeth brprann, thank you. >> good morning, guys. fortunately early this morning we are not seeing any more severe weather warnings but we are expecting to see them later on today. we are looking at risk of severe storms across interior portions of the northeast. we will keep an eye on that through out the day in fox news channel. one of the reasons we saw this explosive development of thunderstorms is we had a sharp contrast in systems behind it. we are going to be seeing more of that warmth early this morning. take a look at the current temperatures in the 60s across chicago. 39 as when heed out the door in this video. fire out severe weather out in the portions of the midwest. snow right now across minnesota up to 7 inches will be possible across northeastern parts of our state. you could see flakes across the city and minneapolis later on this morning. you see that moving on already. seeing showers and th

we spoke to a veteran iowa observer who said there's angst among the party about their new chairman's ability to get the job done in iowa. state parties are important. the first thing that we think about are things like getting out the vote and the basic logistics for the presidential race. it's also everything else on the ticket. it's every other race that will be on the ballot in november. in states that are a total mess at the state party level, what's plan b? if some key state republican parties literally are not able the pay their rent so it does not seem like they will be able to do anything for the elections this fall. what's plan b? plan b is this guy. the $200 million war chest that karl rove has committed will start producing anti-obama campaign ads this month. if you're a state republican party is bankrupt like minnesota or otherwise in the state of disarray like ohio, say, don't worry. karl rove and his millions are on the way. politico reporting just as american crossroads stepped in to help with senate turn out two years ago to compensate for the underfunded rnc, some ne

who don't want my family to exist and support legislation to try and remove their relationship from its legal standing in iowa. so that was a very troubling moment to experience when you're in the eighth grade. i think living in a country where mitt romney is president, we'd probably be moving backwards when it comes to this issue. he supported doma publicly, he's also donated $10,000 for the national organization for marriage. so i think under a romney administration, we would be looking at a different world for lbgt people and certainly not one that's better. >> you make a brilliant point. you said britney spears marriage after 55 hours, kim kardashian 72, both uphold the sanctity of marriage. your mothers have been together 16 years of married commitment, and yet many people refuse to recognize them. >> that's right. >> as a married couple. it is an absurd disparity in the way many people view those two situations. >> yeah, definitely. you know in fact my moms had thafr first commitment ceremony in 1996, three months to the day after the defense of marriage act was signed into law. the defense of marriage

their voices. >> i wish death on all you [ bleep ]. >> at iowa state penitentiary, our crew went inside the unit the state's most chronic offenders, cell house 220. known inside the walls as the hole. >> shut up!

i think the romney campaign had their own event for their own supporters and they were doing some things there. actually, the folks from iowally end up taking their picture. it wasn't a big deal. there are some party rules actually that don't allow informal endorsements prior to declaration of presumptive nominee. so that formality means something in a lot of states. that's really the reason why some of the stuff goes on. it's not really out of, you know, out of disloyalty or anything like that. it just had to do with party rules in different states. >> let's look ahead to the general election. you wrote an op-ed in politico this week saying president obama is not doing enough for latino voters and that, quote, latinos also face an unemployment rate that is higher than the national average. but look at this. in the latest nba/"wall street journal" poll, 69% of latinos support the president, compared to 22% approval for mitt romney. that is huge ground to make up for your presumptive, likely presumptive, republican nominee. how do you do that without major changes in policy? >> well, i mean, first of all, i wouldn't crow wit

observer today who confirmed to us there's considerable angst in iowa right now among republican party activists and conservative activists about their new chairman's ability to get the job done in iowa. state parties are important. the first thing that we think about are things like getting out the vote and the basic logistics for the presidential race. it's also everything else on the ticket. it's every other race that will be on the ballot in november. every single member of the house is up for re-election this fall. with redistricting, a lot of those races are way more up in the air than they otherwise would be. so in states like are a total mess at the sate party level, what's plan "b"? if some key state republican parties literally are not able the pay their rent so it does not seem like they will be able to do anything for the elections this fall, what's plan "b?" plan "b" as it turns out is this guy.
