mccain lost in 2008 with 31%. and a "wall street journal" nbc poll released this week has romney at 27%. if he doesn't get up to 37, he will lose the election. that's not opinion. that's electoral elementary math. so the question is whether center rubio can get him to that 37%. using rubio, the senator, to connect to hispanic voters is like trying to connect to jewish voters with a jew who speaks hebrew but is he openly hostile to israel and pro, very friendly to iran. it's absurd. what you have to remember i work for a company that helps fortune 500 companies connect to hispanic consumers and ironically i work with a company called bain and company. what romney doesn't understand and his close advisors is that comprehensive immigration reform is a litmus test. let me repeat. a litmus test with hispanic voters like myself now, while education, and healthcare and jobs and the economy are also very important, if you don't support comprehensive immigration reform, you're north going to get to any of the other issues

senator john mccain over the weekend was pretty stern in his criticism of the president. he said it is a feckless foreign policy and he said that he is abandoned real leadership. in the context of syria, does he have a point? >> well, i think, i think he does have a point. i think the administration has essentially relied on the united nations, kofi annan, the former secretary-general's mediation mission, an effort at sanctions in the security council and it has all come to nothing. the russians, the chinese, have blocked sanctions. kofi annan's cease-fire plan failed utterly. he is back there now. i don't see he will much more success this time. in the absence of the united nations doing anything, which is hardly a surprise, we see the slaughter continue. >> right. >> while people can disagree how to handle syria, just empirical reality demonstrates that the obama policy has failed. gregg: mr. ambassador, russia says they will save us. they will out of bashar al-assad. you're laughing already. i haven't even gotten the question out s that just per boss truss or is he ser
