the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff called a paston and said don t talk about that video. kind of pathetic in terms of the u.s. making its case toward the world. president obama is going to it address the video at u.n. council just in case you don t know that he doesn t approve of the video. if the romney campaign can t make the case, it is an embarrassment to the administration. they have to deal with what happened the last two weeks. they are not going to have to deal with it really unless the opposing presidential candidate makes them deal with it. we can criticize and say it makes them look bad but if voters don t see the other presidential candidate making the case they tend to think the world is a mess and it is tough and maybe the president is not doing great. romney doesn t seem to have anything to say about it. the next 48 hours is important. the president speaking at the u.n. and the ridiculous video story discredited.
was denied by this administration for days and even now they keep falling back on talking about the video. you know, this ought to have been a terrible embarrassment. i m not sure it appeared that way at least in its coverage but that is what it should be. chris: kacie? you have seenly seen as romney tried to deal with this as well as with the administration while he jumped on it it initially and took a lot of the heat in the beginning this is an evolving situation for the obama campaign. he spoke before all of the facts were none and the reality is now the facts are still coming out for what happened and that is going to be something that the administration is going to have to deal with going forward as opposed to romney. and if you think about it the fact that they are now calling it an act of terror that is one area where obama has been able to claim success. no attacks on the u.s. they is successfully killed osama bin laden. i mean that is something that they have really been p
milwaukee yesterday for the first time since february. having said that the real clear poll ficks average shows obama with a 7-point lead in your state and one poll shows that the president now leads romney on who is better at handling the economy. question, governor, is wisconsin really in play this year? i really think it is. i mean in my recall reelection we won in june by more votes than were cast two years ago by a larger percentage than two years ago and many of the polls show that it would be that tight. in fact, some of thionity polls showed it it was aplite decision. i think there is a lot of things moving here. certainly there is a very clear political vision, had been for years between republican and democrat in 2000 and 2004 we were the closest blue state in america. only a couple thousand votes out of 2.35 million made the difference. the fact that the president was here and mitt romney s son was
is not our fault that is the congress fault. that is a failure to lead. we need mitt romney out there making the case about how his leadership is not go only going to ultimately win the election but more importantly how they will put them back to work not because we have government on the way and put people to work in the private sector. that is the message i hope resonates at the first debate and will continue between now and november 6. chris: you said that you felt too many people are restraining romney from giving his vision. i guess the question becomes let s tay that you suddenly are appointed campaign chairman. what would you say to romney? what does he need to do this week during the bus tour in ohio? what does he need to do when is face to face, man to man with barack obama at this first debate? i think you have to get off the hills and get out and charge forward. americans want a fighter and someone who is not going to fight over politics but rather who shows that this gu
westerlies it is a problem in the short-term because a lot of the local governments already set the tax levies and already have it in place. moody s even put out notice of a negative outlook for the local government s bond ratings because of that decision. is last year we had another activity liberal judge from dane county be the capital base of the state make a decision that ultimately was overturned and the law upheld by the state supreme court. i m confident that that will happen wen. in our state we had legal action and a recall election where a governor was elected in this case by a larger margin than the four. we are ready to move forward. it is good because the reforms saved money. more than a billion dollars worth of savings. property taxes went down for the first time in 12 years on a medium valued home. a major budget deficit turned into a surplus. we are moving the state forward and this is just a temporary
