America they ve got space in yemen, i agree with you. not looking to do that. that s one consideration. if we keep doing what we re doing, like secretary matis said we re not winning in afghanistan. this is a scaled down rational approach that puts unrelenting pressure on the terrorist groups and strengthens afghans doing it. doesn t require american soldiers driving around getting killed like last week. is $10 billion the cost to simply keep a lid on it? when you say a bankruptcy trustee, that makes sense but where is the turnaround guy and where s the strategy that she s we re going to end it? it s not $10 billion a year forever? certainly not. for the 16 years we ve been there, that s not a mining law or energy law. there s a trillion dollars of wealth but we don t have the legal structure someone wants to say i m going to spend $100 million and build this mine, you can t do that legally. ....
That democrats would be foaming at the mouth to get on the air. i mean, this is why, when business folks run, that there s a two-sided coin. there is a lot of there s a lot of attractive qualities to a business person in politics. look at mike bloomberg in new york, for example. mitt romney s entire narrative, the turnaround guy that could really come in and fix things was his biggest asset coming in and then the democrats perverted that image by digging into his paperwork and taxes and all of the documents that get filed when you re in business. it just creates a treasure trove that can get boiled down, fair or not, into a 30-second ad like that and can be a killer. it s a great point. also, you have candidates in a race like jeb bush, while he was governor, he spent a lot of time in the business world and there were dealings there that are vulnerabilities. but also to echo david chalian s point, ross perot, steve forbes, ....
When you look add the the ohio poll, there was a story in the washington post where obama and romney are splitting seniors. one of the people who spoke. romney should be ared. he should be way ahead. you know what, he just wants to help out his fellow rich brothers and not me. that s dangerous. i think joe scarborough this morning has summarized how hard it is for republicans this morning. let s listen to joe. wait a second. romney, ryan! there we go. that s great. thank you. oh, sweet jesus. how do you fix that? you don t fix it. he is a great businessman, great turnaround guy if i had a business anywhere in the world, ....
I shouldn t be so hard on you. i shouldn t bring up newt gingrich. it s just irrelevant. it doesn t even matter. it s irrelevant. what do the catholics say? holy mary mother of god? it s not going to work. pray for our sinners in thy hour of peace. it s not going to work. it s too late for that. it seems to me except what would happen, it s the end of godfather 2, i m fredo on the back of the boat about to get it in the back of my head. how do you fix that? you don t fix it. sadly, i said this about mitt romney s a great man. he is. he s a great father, a great husband. he is a great businessman, great turnaround guy. if i had a business anywhere in the world, i d have him run it. he just he s a horrible politician. he s one of the worst. he s a great guy. i just want to say, he s a great, great guy, but man, ed rendell you know him. great guy. ....
And you know, in some respects, he s right. he was the one on tape. he was the one who said what he said. the candidate holds responsibility. and it would be very weird for mitt romney to blame someone else when he s projected this aura about him as the sort of, you know, the controlling ceo type, the person who can run a good, tight ship and then he blames surrogates. it makes sense that he blames himself. richard s right. there s no way to say that he s not trailing. i get that they re looking at national tracking polls, but this isn t really a national race. this is a race in eight or so very important states. and in many of those states romney is clearly losing. as a turnaround guy, i still don t masee him making a real attempt to turn it around. scott brown said he d like romney s campaign to recapture the same energy it had after paul ryan was first announced as the running mate. i want to see more passion. certainly in part, it is a referendum on this president. there s no d ....
