. in one of the debates herman cain suggested something similar, but he opposes that. ryan's tax is going to cost about 4 to 5 trillion over ten years, that's after you pay for extending the bush tax cuts which nobody explained how you pay for in the first place. now you're dealing with 5 to 10 trillion or 5 to 9 trillion in tax breaks. ryan doe't do as much on medicare at this point as people think he does. he softened that in the second it ration of his budget and decreases defense spending. so this money is coming out of the hide of the poor. he does domestic cuts in the first ten years. his budget cuts about $750 billion off medicaid. >> would you tell your grandma to vote for this guy? >> i don't tell my grandma how to vote, she's a strong woman. >> if she asks for advice? >> i'm a journalist, i don't tell people how to vote. >> if you tell a senior in their early 70s, they ask your advice what would the candidates hurt them with, what would you say? >> in their early 70s, this is important because that's why he ends up taking a hit out of the poor, they do not touch folks over

series, but they didn't vote for newt gingrich except in south carolina. they didn't vote for herman cain. they didn't vote for michele bachmann. so what is the purpose of bringing newt back and certainly what is the purpose of bringing donald trump on to the stage except as some sort of court jester. this isn't supposed to be a shakespearean play, but romney is getting a little odd here. >> i mean, when i went back and looked at the debate tape today, i was struck by those debate audiences, obviously republican voters turning out for the 20 republican debates. and every audience, one after the other, just absolutely into it. there's nobody out there holding an applause sign. they were just rabidly into what was going on in terms of the combat between the candidates, and it's true that the largest applause was devoted to these candidates attacking the media and attacking president obama. it wasn't so much about them attacking each other. doesn't it make sense that mr. romney would be trying to tap into that enthusiasm again? we haven't seen it since. >> it's one thing to tap into the

for michele bachmann, i miss herman cain so much. he made my writing so easy, and was still funny. so i don't know, it's kind of a double edged sword, you know? ever writer's dream is to see their words come to life but i don't know if that should be every satirist's dream. >> the guy who should be credited any time any republican says self-deportation with a straight face, thank you very much for your time appreciate it, man. >> thank you, rachel. >>> best new thing in the world is coming up tonight. steve schmidt is here, i have a bone to pick with him about republicans supposedly being so psyched to run against president obama this year. >>> plus politics stuck in your super bowl and we will take care of that in a moment. what? pay you? hang on. kitchen counselor here. mom, i think what she means is "greasy dishes." cascade complete pacs fight tough greasy messes better than the other tablet. there's only one cascade. love it, or your money back. i heard they found energy here. it's good. we need the jobs.

. starting in 2012, here the cpac peach last week, one from chuck norris, and one from herman conta cain. might having back to 2011 there's newt's daughters talking about their dad. lots of debate clips. there's an announcement made he's running for president. back to 2000, he got married to calista in 1999, left the house of representatives and left his job as speaker of the house. there's a contract of america '94. i've seen enough of this. he seems to have left some stuff out. he's such a busy guy. maybe i can help. let's see here. let's go back to 2009 and stick this in. newt gingrich on a health reform conference call talking up the individual mandate. we believe there should be -- we have a clip, i think. >> we believe that there should be must carry, everybody should have health insurance or if if you're an absolute libertarian, we would allow you to post a bond but we would not allow people to be free riders failing to insure themselves and showing up at the emergency room with no means of payment. >> let's get that in. another thing to stick in 2009. gingrich's political action

herman cain, and herman cain went away. then after herman cain, mr. same storm from herman cain, and then herman cain went away. then from mr. gingrich, and he went away and came back and went away gay. so though it is exciting in the moment, a rival candidate to surge and pose a challenge to mr. romney, it's not the most novel story in the world. if in all the breathless rick santorum coverage today you feel like you have seen this movie before, it is because you have seen this movie before. and it might end up being a big deal, but it might not. if chart really does imitate life, here's what i think is a more important thing to keep an eye on. and it's not getting nearly as much attention. we don't vote nationally. we vote state by state, right? it's too bad, but the presidential preferences of republican voters in a state like utah really don't matter all that much. their primary's at the end of june. it comes pretty much too late in the process to likely have any impact on who the republicans pick for their nominees. but utah republicans' preferences are reflected as much in thes

. after mr. perry, mr. romney weathered the exact same storm from herman cain, and herman cain went away. then after herman cain, mr. romney weathered the exact same storm from newt gingrich and mr. gingrich went away and mr. gingrich came back and went away again. though it's exciting in the moment, a rival republican candidate coming from no where to surge it's not the most novel story in the world. yes, mr. santorum has come from nowhere to meet or exceed mr. if in all the breathless rick santorum coverage today you feel like you have seen this movie before, it is because you have seen this movie before. and it might end up being a big deal, but it might not. this is what's going on in the republican rate for president. the more happens in the race, the more voting, the more campaigning this year, the more voters have decided nationally that they cannot stand mitt romney. if there's polling in politics that might be worth blanket coverage from the beltway media, i would think that this would be it. chart imitates life. happy valentine's day. your finances can't manage themselves. but

miss herman cain so much. he made my writing so easy, and was still funny. so i don't know, it's kind of a double edged sword, you know? ever writer's dream is to see their words come to life but i don't know if that should be every satirist's dream. >> the guy who should be credited any time any republican says self-deportation with a straight face, thank you very much for your time appreciate it, man. >> thank you, rachel. >>> best new thing in the world is coming up tonight. steve schmidt is here, i have a bone to pick with him about republicans supposedly being so psyched to run against president obama this year. >>> plus politics stuck in your super bowl and we will take care of that in a moment. americans are always ready to work hard for a better future. since ameriprise financial was founded back in 1894, they've been committed to putting clients first. helping generations through tough times. good times. never taking a bailout. there when you need them. helping millions of americans over the centuries. the strength of a global financial leader. the heart of a one-to-one

candidates, mitt romney, rick santorum, ron paul, rick perry, michele bachmann, herman cain and jon hundredsman -- huntsman. newt gingrich was polling in first place in missouri but he won't be on the ballot there. but that is the least of missouri's failure here. missouri had on the books missouri had on the books a law requiring the state to have its primary today. on february 7th. the republican party said if do you that it will cost you half delegates. they said we'll change it but missouri could not get the act together to actually change their law. by state law they have to hold a primary on this date. what about the threat twhoe lose half the delegates? to avoid losing half the delegates they decided to make the contest pointless. it's non-binding. so it's just a poll, essentially, a test. they picked another date next month to be the contest that will actual ly alot their delegates on march 17th. missouri republicans are doing an exercise in nonsense counsels for nothing except $7 million spent by the people of the state of missouri to hold this pointless nonsense thing. tod

places, you met people who loved herman cain or jim demint. one guy was a jim demint voter he would have been if he jumped in the race. since he wouldn't he was ready to compromise for someone that could beat barack obama. it's like they have a score card and they are willing to get candidates at lower level, but a candidate who can beat barack obama there at the top. if you have mitt romney in the white house and believe as the tea party believe he's malleable, if you believe he wants to get rid of obama-care, he will be confronted with a right wing senate and right wing congress that will do it for him and it would be odd if he tried to veto. they must realize that -- the jack lemmon, the michele bachmann interlude. why did we not pick huckabee. i think it's human error and they are dealing with it. >> dave, political reporter, your reporting has been detailed in a way i appreciate but insightful, dmglad you were wit us. >> thank you. >> one of the big polling firms started polling republicans in south carolina on whether they would vote for ste phen colbert. those results but who

when they dropped out. the next two candidates to get out of the race didn't endorse, neither herman cain nor michele bachmann, neither of the next two to get out after that made an endorsement of any other candidate when they quit. and so when jon huntsman quit, advanced the inevitable, finally quit his campaign, it wasn't a foregone conclusion he would make an endorsement. given how he campaigned for the presidency, even if you expected him to make endorsement when he dropped out, there was no reason to expect his endorsement would be for mitt romney. >> you can't be a perfectly lubricated weather vane on important issues. romney has been missing in action in terms of showing any kind of leadership. >> governor romney enjoys firing people. >> if we are to talk about inconsistencies and changes on various issues, we would be here all afternoon. >> there's a question whether you're running for the white house or waffle house. when you're on too many sides of the issue of the day, when you don't have that core, when there's that element of trust, that becomes a problem and makes you e

case herman cain didn't prove it. newt gingrich, republican presidential candidate has one major source of funding, las vegas casino mogul sheldon adelson who pumped the billionaire's equivalent of pocket change, $10 million so far into newt gingrich's super pac. now anything goes. the only reason newt gingrich is a choice for president in america now is because one guy, one billionaire wants him to be. this is our world now. this is the best part of it. now the billionaire bringing us the continued candidacy of newt gingrich is also getting something else from this year's presidential politics. he gets his own private presidential caucus. he lives in nevada. nevada is like iowa with caucuses instead of primaries. they happen saturday, february 4th, day before the super bowl and they have to be done by 3:00 in the afternoon on saturday. saturday is also the sabbath in the jewish faith and for 7th day adventist. adelson is a strictly observant jew and they do not travel or conduct business between sunset on friday and sunset on saturday in order to honor the sabbath. this year the
