Leadershipprove this message. >> you know, that seemalmost off message for newt, because hes so much involved in the intramural fisticuffs now with romney. its so personal, and heres an objective case for newt gingrich, when, in fact, all you hear from him is, screw romney. >> i think its a decent ad, but i dont think theres enough points behind it. its not on boston tv. theres not enough points behind it to drive a message. >> repeat performances? >> right. i thought i could say stuff like poin...

Does he need that to happen to win in south carolina? >> not necessarily. i think romney must -- jonathans scenario, i think, has to include romney making a mistake or two. perhaps in these debates. not just other people doing well. romney hasnt lifted a finger to go after santorum. no super pac moneys been spent on him. so if we get down to south carolina and romneys threatened by rick santorum because hes had a strong showing here, i think theyll go have more. look, id like contest too, id lik...

Carolina? >> yes. heres why. thats the easiest answer. santorum, based on his iowa win, catches fire in the next five days. hes getting a ton of free media coverage. were covering him all the time. he has great debates on saturday and sunday. he roars into second place, maybe gets into the 20s here, and he still loses to romney, but hes a solid second. and its clear that hes become the conservative alternative. then in south carolina, perry has collapsed, newt has collapsed. he beats romney squa...

The vote, are ron paul well behind in second place with 18 points. santorum, gingrich, and huntsman are all way back in single digits. so this is an early poll, coming right out of this, jonathan. it seems to me whats going to have to happen for this to be interesting, check me on this is, romney will get 35, at least, but if hes held to the 30s, and as you say, santorum pulls into the 20s, so its 35/25, thats a big night for santorum, right? >> thats probably the best-case scenario for santorum...

Republicans to beat president obama, but im, you know, but im not working for him. >> okay, well, that said, lets take a look at the head-to-head matchups with the top tier of republican candidates. president obama up against president obama, tied with mitt romney. basically 9 president beats newt gingrich handily by nine points. beats ron paul by eight points. there hasnt been enough polling on president obama. and rick santorum, head to head. so given all that, including the shocking fact, tod...

Last night telling new hampshire voters not to buy into the argument that romneys the most electable candidate. lets listen. >> i love this issue. that i hear all the time. oh, the certain candidate is the most electable. what would give you that impression? when has that candidate ever run as a conservative? gotten any votes? never. so why would you assume that hes the most electable? is it because he raises the most money? dont buy the media hype. dont buy the lie that you have to be a moderat...

States early, it looks like, maybe the first four. and i think these other candidates like gingrich today told me he thinks he can still be stopped at that point. im not so sure thats true. >> thats an amazing bold assessment. do you think its within the realm of real possibility he has won iowa by eight points, eight votes. he could clearly win next week here. hes a strong favorite here next tuesday. he could win in south carolina and in florida. he could roll the table. >> i think he could. an...

bigger victory last night because this morning for the first time in eight years, when i googled the word "santorum," the first result was for rick santorum. yes. [cheering and applause] the cruel definition of a frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter was fittingly at number two, so senator santorum, i hope youre feeling a frothy mixture of pride and hope. sadly, it was a rough night for newt gingrich, coming in fourth place thanks to a blistering barrage of negative ads. in december ...
