sound like a strategy that we were thinking when they go why would you even pick paul ryan as your v.p. candidate if you're not going to talk substantively about the issues and that's what he that's why he said he picked paul ryan because he want to have a real conversation about the real problems that are facing america so now here's your time to talk about the problems and you fail to do so you give all these wonderful flowery speeches and wonderful rhetoric but there's no fences there's no plan he has no plan because he is it possible that paul ryan was actually shoved down their throat by the koch brothers and a couple of other billionaires he's there but that's that's not possible at all i think mitt romney is a leader i don't think anyone shoving anything down his throat what i think is that this is nowhere is it written down that the r. and c. speech is supposed to be. talk about your specific economic goals lay down some principles lay down some top marginal tax rates so the aren't you speeches for and he was specific he was a specific about his faith he was specific about his

why in the world would romney ever want to give specifics because we saw what happened to his to his v.p. candidate when he gave specifics about how he would cut the budget romney probably plans to do something similar to cut the budget of the last thing you want to do is tell people you want to cut the budget because they'll freak out so it doesn't sound like a strategy that could work if they're good when they go why would you even pick paul ryan as your v.p. candidate if you're not going to talk substantively about the issues and that's what he that's why he said he picked paul ryan because he want to have a real conversation about the real problems that are facing america so now here's your time to talk about the problems and you fail to do so you give all these wonderful flowery speeches and wonderful rhetoric but there's no substance there's no plan he has no plan because he is it possible that paul ryan was actually shoved down their throat by the koch brothers and a couple of other billionaires there but that's that's not possible at all i think mitt romney is a leader i don't th

so the fact is why is he going to war with his v.p. nominee with older people saying get rid of obama care, why is he stirring this up? >> well, he's speaking to the wrong audience in going after obama care, chris. i think the attack on obama care worked to some extent in the 2010 congressional races when they focused on the fact that some tax money would be necessary and that some medicare spending would be cut. remember that's what they used in 2010. >> right. >> that worked. but the people that worked with were not the seniors. that worked with swing voters and younger voters who were, you know, looking at how that was going to play out. so i think to go into the teeth of the activists at the aarp with that argument was going to elicit boos. you knew that was going to happen. again, you ask why would they want to do that kind of thing, why would they want to get booed at the aarp? i can't imagine any positive -- this is not like a sister soja moment from the bill clinton years. >> speaking of bill clinton, let's watch. again he's cl

and the republican picks, the v.p. pick has angered a lot of people. i think their platform is very extreme. i go to university of tennessee chat no goo ga and in two days we registered almost 200 students. most of them seem like democratic prospects. >> suarez: but will they vote? >> i think a lot of my peers aren't voting. i think most of them don't care yet or feel like they'll make a difference even if they do vote. >> suarez: she says students will see a big difference under a romney presidency at tuition time. >> you won't be able to afford college unless you're right. i couldn't go to college without a pell grant, scholarships that i get, federal funding. i think students are saying no to that. >> reporter: the obama administration has been touring campuses for weeks and the president is zeroing in on the cost of education. in a campaign visit to colorado state university the president talked about his ideas and helping families handle the steadily rising tuition and fees. >> we've got to make sure that we help every single american earn the edu
