state. mitt romney had done well through most of 2011 to stay focused largely on president obama. now at this moment, when he basically has this state locked up, he could be making arguments against the president but instead he's basically stamping on the dead corpse of newt gingrich rather than trying to pivot towards where he needs to pivot to, which is the general election. >> and the front-runner romney campaign is demoralizing rush limbau limbaugh. listen to what rush had to say about the romney campaign today. >> if you are deciding that you like romney's toughness the way he's taking out newt, i have a thing for you. he isn't going to do that against obama. do you think the republican party has the guts to do that against obama? you think so? you think so? it's interesting you think so. have you seen any evidence -- no, you haven't. have you seen any evidence of any republican going after obama the way the republicans are going after each other? you haven't.
