no worries. >> and we're live tonight in manchester, new hampshire. thanks for being with us, where the first in the nation's primary has been wrapped up and mitt romney has been declared the winner and during the victory speech he had a message for some of his g.o.p. fellow contenders. >> president obama wants to put free enterprise on trial and we've seen desperate republicans join forces with him. >> ooh! >> and this is such a mistake for our party and for our nation. the country already has a leader who divides us with the bitter politics of envy. we have to offer an alternative vision. i stand ready to lead us down a different path where we're lifted up by our desire to succeed, not dragged down by a resentment of success. >> and joining me now with reaction is romney supporter and former minnesota governor and presidential candidate tim pawlenty, thank you for being here and appreciate you being with us. let's start at this point. there's justified anger at wall street. you know, we bail out bankruptcy and financial institutions and insurance co

we're live from manchester, new hampshire tonight and the results are in. first winner in the nation's first primary mitt romney and with analysis and much more, romney supporter, congressman chavitz and he's been in a bunker, good to see you. >> good to see you. >> sean: the results are in. this is historic and mitt romney has now won iowa and new hampshire, nobody has done that before. he's got good numbers in south carolina, good numbers in florida. newt gingrich went out tonight and said this is between a conservative and a massachusetts moderate. will that resonate more in south carolina than it did in new hampshire and why? >> first of all, congratulations to governor romney, a great win and we're all republicans and so we want to move on. look,it's going to go to south carolina and it might, i mean, a massachusetts republican in the south, i don't know. that's, that hasn't been tested for a while. so we're going to have to wait and see, but many' optimistic. i mean, basically it's a choice in south carolina. whether we want to go that route, with the

he has done those town halls and he was doing it today in manchester and peterbo rough. he is getting that enthusiastic response you want a week before the primary. >> greta: what do you think is the bigger issue -- social issues or economic issues? >> i think the biggest issue is going to be the same issue as my campaign when i ran, you know, a year ago, spending, the size of government and the state of our economy right now. those are the primary issues on new hampshire voters' minds and i hear it in my own town hall meetings and i think that will be the issue in this primary -- >> when you look at governor romney's experience -- >> greta: when you look at -- >> what the voters are concerned with. >> greta: when you look at every candidate in the republican party, they say he or she -- only he now -- wants to cut spending and to do that. so they all have a little bit of that message, i guess? >> well, absolutely. i mean, certainly, all the republicans in the field, unlike this president, know that we need to cut back spending. i think governor romney, having the experi

we are doing the all-nighter and will be in manchester tomorrow, straight through to new hampshire. one thing about rick santorum's campaign, he is running an economic populist message with a culturally conservative message, an aphel blue-collar workers. that's a tableau of issue sets that will serve him very well in new hampshire. it's a state with a long, storied history of mill yard workers and blue-collar, catholic, work-a-day republicans and democrats. it's a coalition that pat buchanan, the former 96 an administration aide had great success with 1996. pat buchanan beat bob dole, the senate majority leader in new hampshire with a similar message to what rick santorum has now. it should be said that back in '96, the union leader endoirsd buchanan and really went to bat for him. this time around, the largest newspaper in the state is with newt gingrich. the significance of the union leader means they will attack heavily mitt romney, with rick santorum offering that blue-collar, populist, culturally conservative message, santorum could have a significant week. >> we are getting so

10% ap get ahead of speaker gingrich who was endorsed by the most influential paper in the state, the manchester union leader and who spent hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars in iowa, excuse me in new hampshire. and when we were focused on iowa, that, that is good news for us and we felt good about the fourth place e i don't know how much the paper endorsements, boston globe, essentially the new hampshire paper as well. and union leader endorse, eem, speaker gingrich over governor romney and governor romney claims he got the endorsement of the people. now, in terms of this current battle that's going on between governor romney-- or speaker gingrich and governor romney. speaker gingrich says he's going to fight back. i understand you're going to try to stay out of the frey. i'm curious if you think it's fair or right that speaker gingrich fight back? >> look, i think what newt just talked about was going governor romney's record in massachusetts is absolutely dead on. his record in massachusetts is deplorable. it's not a conservative record. it's tax increases, as he mentioned, $50

senator santorum joins us from manchester. good evening, sir. i'm a little reluctant to see the new hampshire poll as a particularly bad sign in light of the polls that we watched in iowa over the last two months. i assume you agree. >> yeah. i'm not worried about it. a lot of those polls were taken before iowa. i don't think they have credibility to them. we came from 1,000 people at town hall meeting. i feel like our numbers will be good here with energy and enthusiasm. we're having a great time going around iowa. >> going around iowa, that did it. i'm working on less sleep than i normally do. i apologize for that. >> greta: i'm sure people in new hampshire understand that. i want to talk strategy and issues with you. first, bookkeeping. it's being reported tonight since your victory in iowa, as it was, eight votes shy of the victory that you have brought in $2 million to your campaign war chest in 48 hours alone. that is reported by abc. is that true? and number two, if you put it in perspective, in terms of how much has the money been coming
