Nominee by cleveland time, Convention Time . It can go far into next year thats the exciting thing. Republicans are excited out there. Not just a chance to have a new president but a new dynamic reform minded conservative president who can work with the house and the senate and move the country forward thats the exciting part. Neil you dont think mitt romney will engage in the slingshot back and forth it dragged on. Governor romney was really the frontrunner from the beginning to the end, so one at a time, you had people be the counters to that. In this race its wide open. Neil four or five of you, 10 in the latest poll. Do you feel the pressure when you are out of nowhere and now on top of the polls. Do you prefer to be the little engine that could behind them . I ran track, my coach would say i would win by whipping around the end that last quarter lap there. Neil me too, me, too. I was in a car. There you have it. Hed say scott its a lot easier if you are ahead the whole time. In the end there are ups and downs thats exciting about the process. I havent announced whether im a declared candidate or not. Well do our fifth and sixth year Property Tax Relief and make our intentions known to the public. Neil a lot of money types in the party that have given to you hand over fist as they are to jeb bush and marco rubio we could have many candidates staying in longer because theyll have plenty of money to stay in longer, and you as the proportion of the delegates unlike the states are winner take all, what to you think . The party anointing is going to be tested. We have to try out ideas for those of us who may or may not get in. State our case make our argument strong. Its exciting. Youve seen me youve been there firsthand in wisconsin during the recall election. Weve won four years for the First Time Since a president not since 1984. What theyre looking for is someone whos going to fight for them fight and win every single day for hard working taxpayers. Neil you argue this debate is good for the party, maybe it is, i just wonder when rand paul says isis exists because of gop war hogs. What do you think of a Statement Like that. You question rand pauls filibuster like performance in the well of the senate, that it was counterproductive, im paraphrasing here. So im just wondering how divisive that is . I respectfully disagree with senator paul, and i believe the reason that were facing troubles and not only that region but the world is the lack of american leadership. When you see it not just in syria, not just in iraq, you see it going down the path towards a supposed agreement with iran, you see it with putin creeping into the ukraine, you see it with islands of sanding in the south china sea, theres a consistent theme around the world, that is as people who are friends or foe look around and see an absence under this president and not just under the Obama Doctrine largely under the obamaclinton doctrine thats going to make it impossible not difficult. We need to establish leadership, that doesnt mean looking around who to blame but have solutions. Neil thats severe to say isis exists because of gop power. I think hes wrong on that. Unfortunately i respect senator paul im a fan of him. Neil and you could support him as a nominee. Theres a lot of good things about him. Hes wrong on this one. This is one republican or democrat im not going to criticize them personally but i think theres a tendency for certain candidates to go after people on personality base. The facts are clear, americans are worried about security here and abroad worried about having a commander in chief having to protect the National Security interests of this country, and now more than ever. Neil therein lies the second part of that rift, paul and others in the party over the whole nsa issue and the patriot act. You had claimed that again, back to what i was saying for rand paul to try to compromise that was a mistake and what he did. His people immediately got back a spokesperson saying of you, it is a shame to see that the washington machine has coopted Governor Walker on this crucial issue. What do you think of that . Its one of those where youre going to see Something Different from us. Were not going to take cheap shots not going to attack other candidates. Were going to lay out facts. Facts are clear anyone whos seen the videos of the egyptian christians beheaded or shot anyone whos seen whats happened in france and belgium and canada. Neil what does that have to do with the nsa . Ties together. Growing trend, now more than ever, this is something thats not just happening over there. France is a good example. People look at what happened in france and say that was because the french government was tracking individuals like this, for a variety of reasons, financial and otherwise. Now you see overreaction what some argue may be overreaction in terms of the people in france to go further than the patriot act because of what they saw there. We need to have a responsible way that is legal and constitutional but a way we can make sure if someone is an enemy combatant of the United States and the people of this great country weve got to have the tools we need to prevent another accident to happen. Neil would you be okay in the future if the government wanted to collect 120 million americans phone records to be safe . This is where the balance has got to be. You think that part was a mistake. I think theres a way to put in place appropriate checks and balances to ensure we protect the Civil Liberties that american men and women have fought for for so long in the military, but do so in a way that doesnt concede ability to track enemy combatants and those who seek to do harm. Neil switching back to your state, you made mandatory ultrasound in the state. Sometimes when you see ultrasound of your child, talking about your own sons in this case that its kind of cool. I knew what i meant by that, but obviously that was not the reception that you got at planned parenthood whose president put out a statement. Women are very clear that forced government ultrasounds are not cool. What do you think . This is a typical example of the left not just leftist organizations but the left in the media take out of context comments. Youre right, i talked about my kids are 19 and 20in toette and i have the first ultrasound picture we took. Matthew had the side of his head turned so you could see his hand and his mouth, what appeared to be sucking on his thumb. Neil thats so cool, mine had an iphone. The weirdest thing. Stay out governor, this is none of your business. Theyre pushing back and say it is cool. They are cool. Mischaracterize our law, if someone goes in for abortion we require that whoever is providing the procedure has to provide access to traditional ultrasound because we believe someone whos prolife i believe if someone has access to seeing the information, if they can look at it if they so choose, if thats available chances are theyre going to pick the life. I think its a great thing. If they dont under the law they dont have to. The reality is those on the left are afraid of people actually having information. They say theyre prochoice but dont want an informed choice. Neil do you get a sense with the race the way it is still early on that you have to pick and choose battles. I think of florida because that could be a winner take all state delegates havent decided that. You raised eyebrows when you consider the possibility of skipping out on that you should run for president. And i think jeb bush and marco rubio fight it out. Is that true . Just to be clear i said a friend of ours Laura Ingraham on the radio, theres not a state we cant play. In i said iowa, New HampshireSouth Carolina nevada if we were to choose to get in. Candidates pick and choose which ones, i said we could play anywhere in the country. The point i made was the exception of saying what state win in . Its a challenge in a state. Neil if you enter the race are you saying you would compete in florida . Im going to be with my friend rick scott in florida next week. Neil see you there. Were not conceding anywhere. Im pointing out jeb bush and marco rubio will have a distinct advantage. Neil you think one of them is going to whip that state . I think well make the case anywhere in the country including florida. Neil youre not nicking it . No. In the end if i run and if i become the nominee florida is critically important, its a state my grandfather was a machinist, spent last retirement years in ft. Myers to go fishing. Neil not a bad place to do that. On the august iowa straw poll, are you going to participate . Were not committing to anything until we make a decision whether were in or not. Anything that requires neil many are dropping out. I guess many have said that. Well make a decision whether we make an announcement what our intentions are. Were not committing to forums and straw polls. Neil you cant win on this one, you lead in polls in iowa if you nicks that iowans might be offended. If you participate, you dont do well . They want to hear from you personally they want you to show up. I was in iowa a weekend ago back in the future, were going to be back often. I spent seven years of my life from 1970 to 77 in plainfield, iowa. Town of 450, my dad was a minister at the First Baptist church. Well be going to plainfield and dubuque and cedar rapids and sioux falls. Sioux falls is in it is just outside. Redefining the Labor Movement itself, and it was a right to or not be part of the union. Something happened today that transcends this debate. Im going to pick this governors brain on that right after this. When cigarette cravings hit, all i can think about is getting relief. Only nicorette mini has a patented fastdissolving formula. It starts to relieve sudden cravings fast. I never know when ill need relief. Thats why i only choose nicorette mini. Hey america, still not sure whether to stay or go to your people . Well this summer, stay with Choice Hotels twice and get a 50 gift card you can use for just about anything. Go you always have a choice. Book now at choicehotels. Com. Neil do as i say not as i do unions in a precarious predicament, labor leaders in los angeles are looking for a union out or exemption from the 15 an hour wage pushing on the part of Service Workers in the region. Governor scott walker back with me right now. They really pushed all of this but want a special carveout for unions. What do you think . The audacity and the hypocrisy, like obamacare, some of the same Big GovernmentLabor Union Bosses who pushed obamacare pushed this president , the liberal leaders in california are asking for a carveout. Its good for politics and political muscle, not good when it comes down to practice. I dont support changes in the minimum wage. I think the better approach is you give people the skills, the education and training they need to succeed with jobs that pay far greater two or three times the minimum wage. Neil does it bother you if you were the partys nominee and running against clinton or another that youre the antiwork candidate, youre not for the common folk. One of the exit polls showed 40 of the selfidentified Union Households voted for us why . Defy the logic of what the media are telling them, they saw what we did, it was proworker pro taxpayer. We took the power away from the special interests, the union bosses, the people involved in the hypocrisy in l. A. And put it firmly in the hands of the hard working taxpayers. I dont care whether you work in a factory or Small Business or employer out there. We want people who are going to fight and win. Neil would you fight for higher minimum wage. Rick santorum said we should have a higher minimum wage. Mitt romney said a higher minimum wage. The better answer is fight for getting people the resources, where they can invest in the programs ive invested in as a governor, just in the last couple years, we put more money in apprenticeship programs, technical colleges to help people get careers in advanced manufacturing and health care and i. T. That pay three or four times what theyre proposing the minimum wage. Neil youve addressed the fact you technically dont have a College Degree 3 1 2 credits shy. Weve had nine president s that dont have College Degrees. A powerful democratic donor john morgan who said of you that youre a dumb, rhymes with bit. You would be the first president without a ged. But we cannot have a dumb bit as president and he is a total dumb bit. What do you think of that . I hope thats the last attack, should we get in and fortunately be the nominee. Not only does it not resonate with over 60 of americans in the same position its the disconnect from everyday americans. I was in college, i had the good chance to get a great education going into senior year i was offered a fulltime job at the american red kroshgs unlike my friends who have degrees and no job, i didnt have a degree thinking i would go back. I met my wife we had alex you had all your time and money spent. Neil you knew you were going to marry her from the first date . First date may 1st, 1992 took her a little while later but to your point, ive got two sons, matt and alex are in college we are helping out with tuition. Neil how would you feel if they were in their second or second semester and dropped out. They want careers they think require a College Degree thats why were helping out. We need to make sure we dont look down that we understand we should lift up americans who choose to go for careers that require a twoyear associate degree or apprenticeship it would be nice to have a president that acknowledged that. Neil do you think Hillary Clinton should apologize or tell him he should apologize for the remarks . Im so used to the attacks. I think in the end, the better distinction would be to say what are we going to do to lift up every american. Im tired of this president and tired of having a third term of this president. It would be nice to have a president that lifted us all up. Neil pit you against governor chris christie, its a lot harder doing what hes doing because hes dealing with legislature in the opposing party. Easy for you because have you republican control of all bodies of government there. You say what . We went from a state all democrat to all republican, and we got the job done. Thats exactly what well be able to say on the next president. We know were going to keep the house short of absent a meltdown politically more challenging in the United States senate. I think the next president , republican president is going to be able to bring republicans in the house and senate together. Exactly what we did in a state that hasnt gone republican since 84. Neil you tweeted senator rubio 44th birthday. Today you are 47. Am i looking at the next ticket who would be on top . Dispute depending whose side youre on. I said happy birthday from another 40 something. Neil did he tweet back to you . He said thanks see you in a week in iowa. Im going be on a harley like via the home. There is something exciting. People want someone new, fresh, someone from outside of washington. Most importantly they want someone who can do more than talk, they can deliver. Neil see you next week in orlando. Well be there with it. Exciting. Neil be well. Until then. A party slugging it out hurting themselves. I spoke to the governor about that. What do some of our brainiacs think about that and maybe about him . Excellent looking below the surface, researching a hunch. And making a decision you are type e. Time for a change of menu.

The real question that needs to be asked is what is it that we can do that is impactful . What the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. It used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. Whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer, thats what id like to do. Neil all right i know this is not a fox flash but clear that scott walker is running for president just like it is pretty clear after all is said and done maybe two dozen other guys will be running along with him. Does the size of this field mean republicans risk delaying their nominee if they have one by Convention Time but leaving her or him badly wounded for the election. Time to address the impact of all of that. We have Lizzie Macdonald and Nick Schaeffer and noel you delay a conclusion to the race . Competition is healthy im all for competition, what it does do im looking at the money side of it makes all these guys compete for a lot of the same dollars. When i say a lot of the same dollars, the big bundlers, the pacs. Thats going to be a huge competition and race to get the dollar. Neil will we have a nominee by cleveland . I hope so. I know you hope so im saying you dont. I hope we do. Neil okay fine. Dan heres why i say we dont and it has nothing to disparagany of the candidates simp
