trump can never, ever, ever let (bleep) slide. he can't let anything go.s is him yesterday doing a phone interview with chuck todd but first he wants to get one thing straight. >> i didn't call you, you called me about 40 times. >> i did. >> i didn't call you so your statement is false. is it a correct statement that i do not call you, you called me? >> we called you... >> okay, you didn't say that, though, chuck. i wish you would just be straight, chuck. because honestly i think you'd do a lot better if you were straight. >> let me ask you about your debate... >> jon: . >> chuck, you have to tell the truth. (laughter). >> jon: that is this man in a nutshell. he can't let go of the question of who called who first! (laughter) and he's going to moderate a debate! you think we're going to have follow-up questions? no, i want to hear you what you said when you said i cut you off. no, who are you to tell america donald trump, whose debate this is how to (bleep)ing moderate a debate? let me tell you something, i handle meatloaf and gary busey, you're nothing to

so, for those would have continued to cut down donald trump, i say, "enough is enough," shut up about it and don't vote for him, work harder for your candidate, and i assume that g.o.p. the find out who it is, if not via iowa tomorrow, then, through south carolina, new hampshire, before south carolina, and, then, florida after that. >>eric: ron paul has maybe indicated, maybe not, i don't know where it came from, but the thought of a ron paul third party candidacy was out there, what do you thing of that one. >>guest: well, with ron paul, too as with donald trump, i respect they have that right to perhaps mount a third party candidacy, however, i just see based on history, based on what i know about campaigns, too often it allows the power of the incumbency to be strengthened and that incumbent do day in there, and president obama, heaven forbid we have to go through four more years of president obama and his failed socialist economy. so ron paul has great things to offer, and, too, i am surprised that so many people forget he is the one who is running with scissors he understands we

nation" with bob schieffer. >> good morning, again, and we begin with a little news today, donald trump told me last night that if republicans nominate a candidate who he thinks can't win he may run himself as an independent. >> our interview with him will come in a little while. first it is a big day here. the marathon got underway this morning, 25,000 people are running. and the miami herald poll is out this morning and says newt gingrich has lost the lead he once held in the polls here. mitt romney is now ahead by double digits. rick santorum and ron paul are far behind. >> last week we invited romney and gingrich for a one-on-one conversation on face the nation. romney wanted no part of that, but gingrich agreed and in an interview on his campaign bus, he told us why he now says romney is too dishonest to be president. >> here is the interview. >> let me ask you this, i mean, are you worried about the law of unintended consequences? i think you have made mitt romney a pretty good debator he was not bad in these debates. >> he has gotten better because he has gotten a coach, the prob

what does business tight an donald trump think?er today. >> donald, nice talk to you. and environmentalists against labor and republicans against democrats and business against anti-business and keystone pipeline project. you thought about the news that is going no permit is going to be issued now for the pipeline? >> i think it's disgraceful. frankly, we don't need canada. we should be able to drill our own oil. as long as it's there we should have approved it. it's jobs and cheaper oil. it's just absolutely incredible. i guess president obama took care of the environmentalists but it is absolutely terrible and it is not an environmental problem. >> greta: i take it one step further. in 2008, that was when the state department agreed there would be an environmental impact study done to see what effect the pipeline would be done on the environment. they outsource today the trans canada the pipeline company to pick the own company to do the study. they picked a company that had other business. a conflict of interest. so naturally wh

and -->> i like donald trump! i'm a big fan!> and it's not an ideological thing and that's, i think, a problem that somebody -- look, i think a lot of the republicans call him and try to get him the support every day because they're worried that he's -- they're worried about him. they're worried he'll run as an independent and be a problem. >> so as a republican, if the choice was between mitt romney or donald trump, then you -- that would be convuluted for you. >> it would be tough. i love donald trump. i think he's fantastic. i like his opinions, like what he does. i like what he says. he's got some great ideas. but, you know, i'm a republican. i'm going to go with mitt romney so i'm going to really, you know, beg donald trump and try to get the entire party to say we need your help. not as the candidate. not as the independent candidate. it would hurt us. >> people forget that perot went ahead of clinton. clinton fell into third place and perot started eating democratic party votes, something no one thought perot could do bec
