00:00:20.312 --> 00:00:25.651
[Child] You're at, like,
191 and he's at, like,

00:00:20.312 --> 00:00:25.651
259 or something?

00:00:25.651 --> 00:00:28.320
[Mitt Romney]
Yeah, yeah. Exactly.

00:00:29.488 --> 00:00:31.907
[Matt Romney]
CNN. FOX. MSNBC.

00:00:36.203 --> 00:00:37.621
589. 783.

00:00:37.621 --> 00:00:40.708
That's it.

00:00:40.708 --> 00:00:43.042
[Man] Well, what's--
what's in?

00:00:43.042 --> 00:00:44.712
Uh, 69%.

00:00:46.630 --> 00:00:49.758
[Mitt Romney] Seems
awfully early to call it.

00:00:46.630 --> 00:00:49.758
Sixty-nine percent.

00:00:49.758 --> 00:00:52.887
Unless they're
looking and seeing that

00:00:49.758 --> 00:00:52.887
counties haven't come in--

00:00:52.887 --> 00:00:54.596
[Mary Romney]
Did they just call Ohio?

00:00:54.596 --> 00:00:56.015
Yeah, supposedly.

00:00:56.015 --> 00:00:58.141
Who called it, CNN?

00:00:58.141 --> 00:01:02.521
[Mitt Romney] Well,
if we don't have Colorado...

00:01:02.521 --> 00:01:05.273
[Tagg Romney]
...it doesn't matter

00:01:02.521 --> 00:01:05.273
what happens in Ohio.

00:01:05.273 --> 00:01:09.069
Yeah, but I don't know yet
from Colorado.

00:01:09.069 --> 00:01:11.279
[Matt] We can--
we can wait a little bit.

00:01:11.279 --> 00:01:13.281
I mean, it's fine.
It's just--

00:01:13.281 --> 00:01:15.576
[Woman] Let's not rush.
Let's not do what Al Gore did

00:01:15.576 --> 00:01:18.412
and let things get bad
and jump out in front of it.

00:01:20.956 --> 00:01:22.958
By the way, does somebody have
a number for the President?

00:01:22.958 --> 00:01:25.168
- [Man] I do.
- Okay.

00:01:25.168 --> 00:01:28.129
I hadn't thought
about that.

00:01:28.129 --> 00:01:30.883
So what do you say if we...
what do you think you say

00:01:30.883 --> 00:01:32.384
in a concession speech?

00:01:51.445 --> 00:01:52.571
- Papa?
- Yeah?

00:01:52.571 --> 00:01:53.864
Make sure
I don't hit the pole.

00:01:53.864 --> 00:01:55.449
I'll do my best,

00:01:55.449 --> 00:01:57.534
but if you get too
close to the pole,

00:01:55.449 --> 00:01:57.534
you just jump out.

00:01:57.534 --> 00:01:59.036
- Okay?
- Just jump?

00:01:59.036 --> 00:02:00.161
You just roll out.

00:02:00.161 --> 00:02:02.330
- You ready?
- Not toward the pole.

00:02:02.330 --> 00:02:04.332
- Chloe!
- No!

00:02:04.332 --> 00:02:06.418
[Woman] It's okay.
You can go on the next one.

00:02:06.418 --> 00:02:08.378
[Mitt] Just jump off.
If you get to the pole, jump.

00:02:08.378 --> 00:02:09.755
- Okay, watch out, Chloe.
- We're in a race.

00:02:09.755 --> 00:02:11.465
You can't
just quit like that.

00:02:11.465 --> 00:02:13.050
- [Mitt] That's true.
- Take one for the team.

00:02:13.050 --> 00:02:14.426
Is the pole
the finish line?

00:02:14.426 --> 00:02:16.428
[Mitt] Yeah, the first
one to the pole.

00:02:16.428 --> 00:02:18.179
[Mary] On your mark,
get set, go.

00:02:24.895 --> 00:02:26.396
We gave you
new gloves last year

00:02:26.396 --> 00:02:27.689
so you don't have to wear
the duct tape ones.

00:02:27.689 --> 00:02:29.232
I know, but these
things work great.

00:02:31.276 --> 00:02:32.736
This is where
I wanted to be!

00:02:32.736 --> 00:02:34.529
I thought you guys
were on my side!

00:02:43.204 --> 00:02:44.665
We're going to go
around the room.

00:02:44.665 --> 00:02:45.958
We're gonna vote?

00:02:45.958 --> 00:02:47.501
I'm gonna start there.

00:02:47.501 --> 00:02:48.752
[laughter]

00:02:48.752 --> 00:02:50.004
We're gonna start there.

00:02:50.004 --> 00:02:56.217
[Laurie]
I vote for McCain.

00:02:56.217 --> 00:02:58.637
[Mitt] Let's go around the room
and get your thoughts.

00:02:58.637 --> 00:03:03.058
And it's going to be on, um,
the, uh, reasons to do it,

00:03:03.058 --> 00:03:04.852
the reasons not to do it.

00:03:04.852 --> 00:03:07.228
- The pros and cons.
- Pros and cons.

00:03:07.228 --> 00:03:08.897
It's kind of like
when we went around

00:03:08.897 --> 00:03:10.315
and talked about our
careers and what

00:03:08.897 --> 00:03:10.315
we're thinking,

00:03:10.315 --> 00:03:11.859
and we want the advice
of the brothers.

00:03:11.859 --> 00:03:13.192
We kind of did
the same thing.

00:03:13.192 --> 00:03:14.486
And it turned into
something very natural

00:03:14.486 --> 00:03:16.571
even though it was
kind of orderly.

00:03:16.571 --> 00:03:18.448
Well, now it's
his turn to get...

00:03:18.448 --> 00:03:19.825
[Mitt] I'm getting advice.

00:03:19.825 --> 00:03:21.618
...get his advice
from the board.

00:03:21.618 --> 00:03:24.579
I think the con
would be that you would

00:03:21.618 --> 00:03:24.579
be the president.

00:03:24.579 --> 00:03:27.290
Who wants to have
to be the president?

00:03:27.290 --> 00:03:28.458
A giant con.

00:03:28.458 --> 00:03:30.251
- Talk about stress.
- Yeah.

00:03:30.251 --> 00:03:33.130
- Talk about stress.
- And scary situations.

00:03:33.130 --> 00:03:34.923
You'd be bald
in about a month.

00:03:34.923 --> 00:03:36.675
[laughter]

00:03:36.675 --> 00:03:38.927
I think Josh will be
gray and bald just

00:03:36.675 --> 00:03:38.927
after the campaign.

00:03:38.927 --> 00:03:40.512
He gets so involved.

00:03:40.512 --> 00:03:44.349
I think emotionally
it will just be hard

00:03:40.512 --> 00:03:44.349
on everybody...

00:03:44.349 --> 00:03:47.227
but it'll be
an amazing experience.

00:03:47.227 --> 00:03:51.690
No pros?

00:03:51.690 --> 00:03:53.984
The thing that scares
me most is that...

00:03:55.443 --> 00:03:58.238
you'll come out, and that
message will be lost.

00:03:58.238 --> 00:04:00.949
People will
either think it's

00:03:58.238 --> 00:04:00.949
too good to be true,

00:04:00.949 --> 00:04:04.703
or it's not-- it's just
kind of a facade, but...

00:04:04.703 --> 00:04:08.415
I mean, I feel like
if people really get

00:04:04.703 --> 00:04:08.415
to know who you are...

00:04:09.708 --> 00:04:12.169
it could be
a successful campaign.

00:04:13.336 --> 00:04:16.464
As much as we've kind of all

00:04:16.464 --> 00:04:21.136
articulated the risks
that we feel for our

00:04:16.464 --> 00:04:21.136
kids and for us,

00:04:21.136 --> 00:04:23.013
we stand strongly
enough behind you

00:04:23.013 --> 00:04:24.932
that we want
to be there for you.

00:04:24.932 --> 00:04:29.310
I remember talking to your dad
before he passed away,

00:04:29.310 --> 00:04:31.646
and asked him, "Should I get
into politics someday?

00:04:31.646 --> 00:04:33.107
What would be your advice?"

00:04:33.107 --> 00:04:35.859
And he said, "Don't do it."

00:04:35.859 --> 00:04:38.486
You have an opportunity now

00:04:38.486 --> 00:04:41.281
as a result of so
many things that were

00:04:38.486 --> 00:04:41.281
beyond your control,

00:04:41.281 --> 00:04:44.534
to run, that it
would be a shame

00:04:41.281 --> 00:04:44.534
not to at least try.

00:04:44.534 --> 00:04:47.412
And if you don't win,
we'll still love you.

00:04:47.412 --> 00:04:49.456
[laughter]

00:04:49.456 --> 00:04:52.626
The country may think of you
as a laughingstock,

00:04:52.626 --> 00:04:55.963
and we'll know the truth,
and that's okay.

00:04:55.963 --> 00:04:58.465
But I think you have a duty

00:04:58.465 --> 00:05:00.467
to your country and to God

00:05:00.467 --> 00:05:02.928
to see what comes of it.

00:05:40.381 --> 00:05:42.383
[Cameraman] Do you mind
if I shoot you guys?

00:05:42.383 --> 00:05:44.052
Ask you a couple
of questions?

00:05:44.052 --> 00:05:45.262
Ask him.

00:05:45.262 --> 00:05:46.805
They're not from here.

00:05:46.805 --> 00:05:50.058
Did you know that you had
a presidential candidate

00:05:50.058 --> 00:05:52.351
sitting right over there
at that table?

00:05:52.351 --> 00:05:54.021
Actually we didn't.

00:05:54.021 --> 00:05:57.691
That is Mitt Romney.
Does that name ring a bell?

00:05:57.691 --> 00:05:59.860
[Mitt] Sorry, guys,
I'm running for President.

00:05:59.860 --> 00:06:01.402
They don't know who I am.

00:06:01.402 --> 00:06:02.821
I did see your
commercial yesterday.

00:06:02.821 --> 00:06:04.281
Did you see my
commercial yesterday?

00:06:04.281 --> 00:06:05.866
I haven't seen
my commercial, so.

00:06:05.866 --> 00:06:08.035
- It looked very good.
- Thank you. That's good.

00:06:08.035 --> 00:06:11.370
We're trying
to guess which possible

00:06:08.035 --> 00:06:11.370
presidential candidate

00:06:11.370 --> 00:06:13.832
is here in Charleston,
South Carolina.

00:06:13.832 --> 00:06:16.168
All my news I get from
The Daily Show

00:06:16.168 --> 00:06:18.212
and Colbert Report, so...

00:06:18.212 --> 00:06:19.420
Can y'all give any hints?

00:06:19.420 --> 00:06:21.298
He's from Massachusetts.

00:06:21.298 --> 00:06:23.466
[Man] Oh, okay,
yes. You're hot.

00:06:21.298 --> 00:06:23.466
You're getting hot.

00:06:23.466 --> 00:06:26.803
From Massachusetts.
A presidential candidate

00:06:23.466 --> 00:06:26.803
from Massachusetts.

00:06:28.347 --> 00:06:30.140
No?

00:06:30.140 --> 00:06:31.850
Theo Epstein.

00:06:32.851 --> 00:06:34.228
It's a Republican.

00:06:34.228 --> 00:06:40.859
Okay.

00:06:40.859 --> 00:06:42.861
- A Republican--
- Romney?

00:06:42.861 --> 00:06:44.696
- Romney.
- Never heard of him.

00:06:44.696 --> 00:06:46.698
You know, if I get
beaten up, that goes

00:06:44.696 --> 00:06:46.698
with the territory.

00:06:46.698 --> 00:06:48.449
And I have looked,
by the way,

00:06:48.449 --> 00:06:51.036
at what happens
to anybody in this

00:06:48.449 --> 00:06:51.036
country who loses

00:06:51.036 --> 00:06:53.663
as the nominee of
their party, who loses

00:06:51.036 --> 00:06:53.663
the General Election.

00:06:53.663 --> 00:06:55.707
They become a loser
for life, all right?

00:06:55.707 --> 00:06:57.667
That's it. It's over.

00:06:57.667 --> 00:06:59.836
And-- and, you know--
Mike-- Mike Dukakis?

00:06:59.836 --> 00:07:02.923
He can't get a job
mowing lawns, all right?

00:07:02.923 --> 00:07:04.674
I mean, it's--
I mean, we--

00:07:04.674 --> 00:07:07.135
we just brutalize
whoever loses, all right?

00:07:07.135 --> 00:07:08.970
And I know that,
I know that,

00:07:08.970 --> 00:07:10.722
and so I'm going in
with my eyes open.

00:07:10.722 --> 00:07:12.599
But I'm going
in with my eyes open

00:07:12.599 --> 00:07:14.684
because I think it's really
important, and I'm in this--

00:07:14.684 --> 00:07:17.145
look, there are guys
in this room who could

00:07:14.684 --> 00:07:17.145
run the country

00:07:17.145 --> 00:07:18.688
as well as I could.

00:07:18.688 --> 00:07:20.274
But I happen to be in this
very funny position,

00:07:20.274 --> 00:07:22.692
having done a couple of things
that put me in a position

00:07:22.692 --> 00:07:23.985
where I could do it.

00:07:23.985 --> 00:07:25.528
And if I don't do it,
who the heck will?

00:07:25.528 --> 00:07:26.863
And so I'm
gonna give it my all,

00:07:26.863 --> 00:07:29.157
and you're gonna give me
all the money.

00:07:32.786 --> 00:07:34.704
Careful not
to break my hair.

00:07:36.831 --> 00:07:39.251
You saw O Brother,
Where Art Thou?

00:07:39.251 --> 00:07:41.544
You've never
seen that movie?

00:07:41.544 --> 00:07:43.380
Oh, my gosh,
that is the best movie.

00:07:43.380 --> 00:07:44.881
I'm sorry, I grew up
in the South--

00:07:44.881 --> 00:07:46.466
Best movie in America.
Oh, you've got to see it.

00:07:46.466 --> 00:07:47.968
I know, but if
I hear one more banjo,

00:07:47.968 --> 00:07:49.219
I'll have to kill myself.
Deliverance.

00:07:50.470 --> 00:07:51.805
I just can't do it.

00:07:51.805 --> 00:07:53.640
The best lines--
the best political lines.

00:07:53.640 --> 00:07:55.225
You'll hear them
the whole campaign.

00:07:55.225 --> 00:07:57.685
[Mitt] ...of all time.
Oh, yeah.

00:07:57.685 --> 00:08:01.189
I've already quoted--
I've quoted at least two

00:07:57.685 --> 00:08:01.189
of them this morning.

00:08:01.189 --> 00:08:02.649
You've got to listen
to the political lines.

00:08:02.649 --> 00:08:05.152
Listen to Pappy O'Daniel
when he talks.

00:08:05.152 --> 00:08:07.362
[Ann] "Just write
my concession speech now."

00:08:07.362 --> 00:08:09.239
"Just go write
my concession speech

00:08:07.362 --> 00:08:09.239
right now."

00:08:09.239 --> 00:08:10.824
"Okay, we'll go write
the concession--"

00:08:10.824 --> 00:08:12.159
All done?

00:08:12.159 --> 00:08:13.576
Okay. No shine?

00:08:13.576 --> 00:08:15.162
- [Woman] No shine.
- Is that all right?

00:08:15.162 --> 00:08:16.455
[Man] That looks good.

00:08:16.455 --> 00:08:18.748
You know,
the safe thing to do

00:08:18.748 --> 00:08:20.041
is just add
a little more light,

00:08:20.041 --> 00:08:21.960
a little more light,
a little more light.

00:08:21.960 --> 00:08:24.754
But that's leading us
to the thing I always

00:08:21.960 --> 00:08:24.754
try and avoid.

00:08:24.754 --> 00:08:27.924
I try to avoid
that flatness, and, uh...

00:08:27.924 --> 00:08:29.676
taking the safe route.

00:08:29.676 --> 00:08:32.387
I think, "Let's go for drama!"
We live drama now, don't we?

00:08:32.387 --> 00:08:34.389
We do. Yeah.

00:08:34.389 --> 00:08:37.309
We don't want
to offend anybody by

00:08:37.309 --> 00:08:41.062
showing off a flaw, you know,
in the candidate

00:08:41.062 --> 00:08:43.898
or in the people that
control his lighting,

00:08:43.898 --> 00:08:46.901
because implied
in that is a mistake,

00:08:46.901 --> 00:08:49.446
and that means this guy
could make a mistake

00:08:49.446 --> 00:08:52.032
when he's president,
and we can't bear that idea.

00:08:52.032 --> 00:08:54.409
Of course he's
gonna make a mistake

00:08:52.032 --> 00:08:54.409
when he's president.

00:08:57.704 --> 00:09:02.292
He's human.

00:09:02.292 --> 00:09:04.878
Governor, I'm sorry.
I was supposed to be there

00:09:02.292 --> 00:09:04.878
face-to-face with you

00:09:04.878 --> 00:09:06.754
in Detroit or Dearborn
this morning.

00:09:06.754 --> 00:09:10.050
Mother Nature
had other ideas,

00:09:06.754 --> 00:09:10.050
so I apologize.

00:09:10.050 --> 00:09:12.260
I look forward to seeing
you next time.

00:09:12.260 --> 00:09:14.346
Let's talk about
some of the realities

00:09:12.260 --> 00:09:14.346
of the race, Governor.

00:09:14.346 --> 00:09:17.349
Let's talk about
a recent poll said

00:09:14.346 --> 00:09:17.349
that 43% of Americans

00:09:17.349 --> 00:09:19.434
are not even sure
who you are.

00:09:19.434 --> 00:09:22.312
Well, at this stage
it's real early to have

00:09:19.434 --> 00:09:22.312
people know who I am.

00:09:22.312 --> 00:09:24.731
That's something which
will develop over time.

Perfectly articulate

Good, yeah.

Would you be more comfortable
if the chair was up higher?

00:11:22.765 --> 00:11:24.809
Yeah, the higher
the chair is, the better

00:11:22.765 --> 00:11:24.809
I'm gonna feel.

00:11:24.809 --> 00:11:26.019
[indistinct remark]

00:11:26.019 --> 00:11:27.354
Well, I do and I don't.

00:11:27.354 --> 00:11:29.648
My guess is it's
already all the way up.

00:11:29.648 --> 00:11:31.441
That's actually how
it was all designed--

00:11:29.648 --> 00:11:31.441
the set, the cameras--

00:11:31.441 --> 00:11:32.817
designed to make
you guys look best

00:11:32.817 --> 00:11:34.402
because that's
what Charlie wants.

00:11:34.402 --> 00:11:36.821
He wants to set up a topic
at the dining room table

00:11:36.821 --> 00:11:38.532
and have you guys
have a conversation about it.

00:11:38.532 --> 00:11:40.241
You're already
having us planning on

00:11:38.532 --> 00:11:40.241
talking to each other.

00:11:40.241 --> 00:11:42.369
But we're not supposed
to ask each other

00:11:40.241 --> 00:11:42.369
questions.

00:11:42.369 --> 00:11:44.871
You can. You're not coming
prepared with questions.

00:11:44.871 --> 00:11:46.873
Pardon?

00:11:46.873 --> 00:11:49.501
We didn't say,
"Please come prepared with

00:11:46.873 --> 00:11:49.501
a question for Senator McCain."

00:11:49.501 --> 00:11:51.044
We thought that was gimmicky.

00:11:51.044 --> 00:11:53.296
If you-- if in the course of
the conversation there's,

00:11:53.296 --> 00:11:56.090
"Whoa, whoa, Senator,
I respectfully disagree

00:11:53.296 --> 00:11:56.090
with that position.

00:11:56.090 --> 00:11:57.716
Is that really...?"

00:11:57.716 --> 00:11:59.553
That would be okay,
but we're not, um--

00:11:59.553 --> 00:12:02.472
That's asking questions
of the candidates. Yeah. Okay.

00:12:02.472 --> 00:12:03.973
[Man] Well,
you'd better clarify.

00:12:03.973 --> 00:12:05.392
Yeah, I'm being--
no, no, no.

00:12:05.392 --> 00:12:06.934
If we're allowed to ask
other questions,

00:12:06.934 --> 00:12:08.395
"Senator McCain, why do you
continue to persist

00:12:08.395 --> 00:12:10.355
in saying this and such?
That's just not right."

00:12:10.355 --> 00:12:12.106
That is-- Charlie
would not allow that.

00:12:12.106 --> 00:12:13.732
Not that kind of question.
I'm sorry, I was not

00:12:12.106 --> 00:12:13.732
being clear.

00:12:13.732 --> 00:12:15.276
You're not going
to pose a question

00:12:15.276 --> 00:12:16.861
where the debate is going
to keep going that way.

00:12:16.861 --> 00:12:18.488
Charlie would come in
at that point.

00:12:18.488 --> 00:12:20.073
But what he is looking for
is to have you--

00:12:20.073 --> 00:12:21.491
he's going to set up a topic,

00:12:21.491 --> 00:12:23.368
and he wants to see
where the contrast is.

00:12:23.368 --> 00:12:26.120
There are no rules,
so this is a scrum.

00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:27.414
Yeah. No, no, no, guys,

00:12:27.414 --> 00:12:29.123
if we're able to just
have a conversation

00:12:29.123 --> 00:12:31.000
and he's gonna
back out of it, then

00:12:29.123 --> 00:12:31.000
we can have a scrum.

00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:32.960
He's not gonna say,
"Time out. That was

00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:32.960
too unfair a question.

00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:34.588
That was too harsh
a question."

00:12:34.588 --> 00:12:37.424
No, no, no.
Again, he's really not

00:12:34.588 --> 00:12:37.424
looking for a scrum.

00:12:37.424 --> 00:12:39.342
Well, he's not
looking for a scrum,

00:12:39.342 --> 00:12:41.219
but if he's basically
saying, "Look, I'm

00:12:39.342 --> 00:12:41.219
gonna raise a topic

00:12:41.219 --> 00:12:42.803
and let each of you
speak on it,"

00:12:42.803 --> 00:12:45.139
then I'm going
to be talking about,

00:12:42.803 --> 00:12:45.139
for instance,

00:12:45.139 --> 00:12:46.891
let's take
illegal immigration.

00:12:46.891 --> 00:12:48.602
I'm going to talk
about my position

00:12:46.891 --> 00:12:48.602
and I'm going to say

00:12:48.602 --> 00:12:50.061
that the other guys have
the following positions,

00:12:50.061 --> 00:12:52.188
and then they're going
to say, "No, I don't."

00:12:52.188 --> 00:12:53.981
And then we're going to have
a debate over whether

00:12:52.188 --> 00:12:53.981
they do or they don't.

00:12:53.981 --> 00:12:56.234
Except that
he is prepared to prod

00:12:53.981 --> 00:12:56.234
the conversation along

00:12:56.234 --> 00:12:57.860
to keep it on target.

00:12:57.860 --> 00:13:00.363
It won't need to be prodded,
if we're able to--

00:13:00.363 --> 00:13:01.906
Well, that's known
as an argument.

00:13:01.906 --> 00:13:03.283
- [Man] Or a scrum.
- [Mitt] Or a scrum.

00:13:03.283 --> 00:13:05.159
Or a dining room table
conversation.

00:13:05.159 --> 00:13:07.786
A dining room
conversation is among

00:13:05.159 --> 00:13:07.786
members of the family.

00:13:07.786 --> 00:13:10.206
These are all people
competing for the same

00:13:07.786 --> 00:13:10.206
job, all right?

00:13:10.206 --> 00:13:12.166
And trying to point out
why they're the right one

00:13:12.166 --> 00:13:13.418
and the other guy's not.

00:13:13.418 --> 00:13:15.670
This is a very
different setting

00:13:15.670 --> 00:13:17.796
than any of the debates
that we've held so far.

00:13:17.796 --> 00:13:20.383
Well, they were all
a debate of a certain kind,

00:13:20.383 --> 00:13:21.635
where people
are asked questions

00:13:21.635 --> 00:13:22.927
and people responded
to questions,

00:13:22.927 --> 00:13:24.596
with a good deal
of dignity.

00:13:26.514 --> 00:13:29.850
I have a feeling that
this format suggests

00:13:26.514 --> 00:13:29.850
a different outcome.

00:13:29.850 --> 00:13:31.770
[Man]
Can you plug me in?

00:13:31.770 --> 00:13:34.689
How in the world do we
find these things out

00:13:31.770 --> 00:13:34.689
on the day of the debate?

00:13:34.689 --> 00:13:37.191
This group has aimed a lot
of partisan firepower

00:13:37.191 --> 00:13:39.778
at Hillary Clinton,
but I'd like,

00:13:37.191 --> 00:13:39.778
if you don't mind,

00:13:39.778 --> 00:13:41.613
to adjust the outcome
for a minute

00:13:41.613 --> 00:13:43.239
and walk down
this road with me.

00:13:43.239 --> 00:13:47.201
Let's say that Barack Obama
is the nominee

00:13:47.201 --> 00:13:48.578
He won the Iowa caucus.

00:13:48.578 --> 00:13:50.538
We have a WMUR poll
out just tonight

00:13:50.538 --> 00:13:53.583
that shows it's tied here
in New Hampshire, 33 to 33,

00:13:53.583 --> 00:13:55.293
and I'd like to know from you

00:13:55.293 --> 00:13:57.712
why not vote for Barack Obama,

00:13:57.712 --> 00:13:59.880
and not just
because he's a Democrat.

00:13:57.712 --> 00:13:59.880
You're not allowed to say that.

00:13:59.880 --> 00:14:05.094
I'd like to hear some
specifics on why not him.

00:14:05.094 --> 00:14:06.513
When we sit down
and talk about change,

00:14:06.513 --> 00:14:08.097
Barack Obama and myself,

00:14:08.097 --> 00:14:09.974
in that final debate,
as you're positing,

00:14:09.974 --> 00:14:12.226
I can say, not only
can I talk change with you,

00:14:12.226 --> 00:14:14.853
I've lived it,
in the private sector.

00:14:14.853 --> 00:14:18.358
For 25 years,
I've brought change

00:14:14.853 --> 00:14:18.358
to company after company.

00:14:18.358 --> 00:14:21.611
In the Olympics,
it was in trouble.

00:14:18.358 --> 00:14:21.611
I brought change.

00:14:21.611 --> 00:14:23.488
In Massachusetts,
I brought change.

00:14:23.488 --> 00:14:24.989
I have done it.

00:14:24.989 --> 00:14:26.366
I have changed things,
and that experience

00:14:26.366 --> 00:14:28.117
is what America
is looking for.

00:14:28.117 --> 00:14:30.328
[John McCain]
I just wanted to say

00:14:28.117 --> 00:14:30.328
to Governor Romney,

00:14:30.328 --> 00:14:32.413
we disagree
on a lot of issues,

00:14:32.413 --> 00:14:35.416
but I agree, you are
the candidate of change.

00:14:40.004 --> 00:14:43.466
Look, the difference
I would have with

00:14:40.004 --> 00:14:43.466
Senator Obama

00:14:43.466 --> 00:14:46.344
has got to do
with national security.

00:14:46.344 --> 00:14:48.888
I know Senator Obama,
and I've worked with

00:14:46.344 --> 00:14:48.888
him many times,

00:14:48.888 --> 00:14:51.641
and I respect
him, as I respect

00:14:48.888 --> 00:14:51.641
Senator Clinton.

00:14:51.641 --> 00:14:54.853
Senator Obama does
not have the national

00:14:51.641 --> 00:14:54.853
security experience

00:14:54.853 --> 00:14:56.813
and background
to lead this nation.

00:14:56.813 --> 00:14:59.190
Hillary Clinton
and Bill Richardson

00:14:59.190 --> 00:15:01.526
and Senator Dodd
and Senator Biden

00:15:01.526 --> 00:15:04.153
all made that same argument.

00:15:04.153 --> 00:15:06.698
And Barack Obama
blew 'em away.

00:15:06.698 --> 00:15:08.700
And if you think
making that argument

00:15:06.698 --> 00:15:08.700
as a Republican,

00:15:08.700 --> 00:15:10.284
that you have more experience

00:15:10.284 --> 00:15:11.411
and you've been around
longer in the Senate,

00:15:11.411 --> 00:15:13.120
that that's somehow--

00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:14.497
and that you know
the Senate cloakroom

00:15:14.497 --> 00:15:15.707
better than he does--

00:15:15.707 --> 00:15:17.041
that's not gonna work.

00:15:19.753 --> 00:15:21.921
He's not gonna beat
Barack Obama

00:15:21.921 --> 00:15:24.465
with another long-term--

00:15:24.465 --> 00:15:26.760
[Man] He proved that in--
that was proven in Iowa.

00:15:26.760 --> 00:15:28.052
Yeah, yeah.

00:15:28.052 --> 00:15:30.263
He just killed
every other--

00:15:30.263 --> 00:15:33.224
Barack Obama
has changed our race.

00:15:33.224 --> 00:15:34.768
He's changed our prospects.

00:15:34.768 --> 00:15:37.061
Ready, and... action.

00:15:39.063 --> 00:15:40.732
I'm Mitt Romney.

00:15:40.732 --> 00:15:43.025
This is an important moment
in our nation's history.

00:15:43.025 --> 00:15:45.361
How many more debates
do I have to go to?

00:15:45.361 --> 00:15:49.115
I have one next week,
in South Carolina.

00:15:49.115 --> 00:15:51.576
This doesn't make any sense.
Does it make any sense to you?

00:15:51.576 --> 00:15:53.286
Mitt, you might not
have to do it.

00:15:53.286 --> 00:15:55.538
How's that? I mean, I'm going
to Michigan, for sure.

00:15:55.538 --> 00:15:57.290
He wants to kick my teeth in.

00:15:57.290 --> 00:16:00.167
Their campaign manager
said he wants to shoot me

00:15:57.290 --> 00:16:00.167
in the groin.

00:16:00.167 --> 00:16:02.796
That's what he said.
"I want to shoot him

00:16:00.167 --> 00:16:02.796
in the groin."

00:16:02.796 --> 00:16:04.422
And the next time he says,
"I want to kick his teeth in."

00:16:04.422 --> 00:16:05.632
I mean, can you imagine?

00:16:05.632 --> 00:16:07.592
Go ahead.

00:16:09.886 --> 00:16:12.555
[Man] Ever once
have you thought,

00:16:12.555 --> 00:16:15.683
"This just isn't worth it"?

00:16:15.683 --> 00:16:17.435
You know, it's hard
for me to do these interviews

00:16:17.435 --> 00:16:19.520
because I'm so used to doing
interviews with the media,

00:16:19.520 --> 00:16:22.064
where I'm so trained to say,
"Absolutely not.

00:16:22.064 --> 00:16:23.733
This is such a, you know--

00:16:23.733 --> 00:16:25.777
It's just been great to get
to know the country," you know.

00:16:25.777 --> 00:16:29.196
That's so hard, but to
actually speak my mind,

00:16:25.777 --> 00:16:29.196
it's very different.

00:16:29.196 --> 00:16:31.073
Okay, well,
let's do this, then--

00:16:31.073 --> 00:16:33.409
do the media version,
and then translate

00:16:33.409 --> 00:16:35.495
what's really going on
in your head.

00:16:35.495 --> 00:16:37.538
Okay, what's the media answer
to that question?

00:16:37.538 --> 00:16:39.332
Remind me your question.

00:16:39.332 --> 00:16:42.502
Here, the question is,
"Do you ever think,

00:16:39.332 --> 00:16:42.502
Well, is this worth it?"

00:16:42.502 --> 00:16:45.630
I just think
the opportunity for

00:16:42.502 --> 00:16:45.630
someone like my dad

00:16:45.630 --> 00:16:47.548
to come in
and run the country,

00:16:47.548 --> 00:16:50.092
and with the challenges
we face in this country

00:16:47.548 --> 00:16:50.092
right now,

00:16:50.092 --> 00:16:52.846
to have someone
with my dad's experience,

00:16:52.846 --> 00:16:55.348
his knowledge
and his vision for America.

00:16:55.348 --> 00:16:58.726
Uh, someone that can,
you know, come in

00:16:55.348 --> 00:16:58.726
and do this,

00:16:58.726 --> 00:17:00.770
you know, it's worth
whatever it takes

00:17:00.770 --> 00:17:02.856
for us to get
my dad into office.

00:17:02.856 --> 00:17:05.942
Translation:
This is so awful.

00:17:05.942 --> 00:17:07.360
[laughter]

00:17:07.360 --> 00:17:09.028
It's so hard.

00:17:09.028 --> 00:17:11.781
Um, I mean, you always
hear about-- they talk

00:17:09.028 --> 00:17:11.781
and they say,

00:17:11.781 --> 00:17:13.908
"Oh, why can't we
just get someone good

00:17:11.781 --> 00:17:13.908
to run for president?"

00:17:13.908 --> 00:17:15.618
And this is why.

00:17:15.618 --> 00:17:17.578
This is why you
don't get good people

00:17:15.618 --> 00:17:17.578
running for president.

00:17:17.578 --> 00:17:20.247
I mean, what-- what
better guy is there

00:17:17.578 --> 00:17:20.247
than my dad?

00:17:20.247 --> 00:17:22.208
You know, is he perfect?
Absolutely not.

00:17:22.208 --> 00:17:24.836
He's made mistakes,
he's done all sorts

00:17:22.208 --> 00:17:24.836
of things wrong,

00:17:24.836 --> 00:17:27.505
but, for goodness sakes,
here's a brilliant guy,

00:17:27.505 --> 00:17:29.966
um, who's had--
his experience is

00:17:27.505 --> 00:17:29.966
turning things around,

00:17:29.966 --> 00:17:31.592
which is what we need
in this country.

00:17:31.592 --> 00:17:33.636
It's like, this is
the guy for the moment.

00:17:33.636 --> 00:17:36.472
And we're in this,
and you just get

00:17:33.636 --> 00:17:36.472
beat up constantly.

00:17:36.472 --> 00:17:38.892
"Oh, Mitt Romney's
a flip-flopper.

00:17:36.472 --> 00:17:38.892
He's this, he's that."

00:17:38.892 --> 00:17:42.102
And you just kind of go,
"Man, is this worth it?"

00:17:42.102 --> 00:17:43.354
This is awful.

00:17:43.354 --> 00:17:46.691
So... that's
the translation.

00:17:46.691 --> 00:17:49.360
[laughter]

00:17:49.360 --> 00:17:51.320
I think it's, you know,

00:17:51.320 --> 00:17:53.364
barring some
great success tonight,

00:17:53.364 --> 00:17:56.158
if we're virtually
tied in the polls now

00:17:56.158 --> 00:17:58.411
and if all the newspapers
are gonna be writing

00:17:58.411 --> 00:18:01.956
wonderful articles
about why they should vote

00:17:58.411 --> 00:18:01.956
for John McCain tomorrow,

00:18:01.956 --> 00:18:04.500
or Tuesday, when
people go to the polls...

00:18:06.044 --> 00:18:09.422
that's not a--
that's not a good thing.

00:18:09.422 --> 00:18:12.550
[Man] Maybe you just
wait a few years.

00:18:12.550 --> 00:18:14.928
Yeah. Yeah, I've done it
once, though.

00:18:14.928 --> 00:18:16.470
[overlapping reactions]

00:18:16.470 --> 00:18:17.722
See? Look at this.

00:18:17.722 --> 00:18:21.809
Never again.
We cannot do this again.

00:18:21.809 --> 00:18:24.687
You can only squeeze
the blood out of that

00:18:21.809 --> 00:18:24.687
rock one time.

00:18:24.687 --> 00:18:26.064
One thing's for sure,
though.

00:18:26.064 --> 00:18:28.524
You don't, um...
you don't raise--

00:18:28.524 --> 00:18:30.317
you don't put
personal money in.

00:18:30.317 --> 00:18:32.236
See, we had to put
personal money in

00:18:32.236 --> 00:18:34.822
to establish credibility
and build a brand name.

00:18:34.822 --> 00:18:36.741
When this is over, I will
have built a brand name.

00:18:36.741 --> 00:18:38.325
[Josh] Yeah, but--

00:18:38.325 --> 00:18:40.870
People will know me,
they'll know what I stand for:

00:18:40.870 --> 00:18:42.580
The Flipping Mormon.

00:18:42.580 --> 00:18:44.874
[subdued laughter]

00:18:44.874 --> 00:18:47.710
[Josh] The guy that'll
say or do anything

00:18:44.874 --> 00:18:47.710
to get elected.

00:18:47.710 --> 00:18:49.545
- Oh, great.
- Yeah, yeah.

00:18:49.545 --> 00:18:51.756
Quite a brand
you've built.

00:18:51.756 --> 00:18:53.883
Yeah, exactly right.

00:19:06.104 --> 00:19:08.439
Our dear heavenly Father,

00:19:08.439 --> 00:19:12.026
once again we bow our knees
and in all humility

00:19:12.026 --> 00:19:14.070
come before thee

00:19:14.070 --> 00:19:16.656
and ask thy help.

00:19:18.616 --> 00:19:20.284
We acknowledge
all the blessings

00:19:20.284 --> 00:19:22.870
thou hast given us
in our lives...

00:19:22.870 --> 00:19:26.707
and acknowledge the most
extraordinary children

00:19:26.707 --> 00:19:29.043
that have been given to us,

00:19:29.043 --> 00:19:31.712
to be a guide
and a comfort to us.

00:19:31.712 --> 00:19:34.173
We pray that...

00:19:37.051 --> 00:19:40.304
thou would understand that
our desires in doing this...

00:19:41.514 --> 00:19:44.725
are pure, and that we are

00:19:44.725 --> 00:19:47.854
grateful for our blessings

00:19:47.854 --> 00:19:51.107
and have a desire
to serve thee

00:19:51.107 --> 00:19:53.609
and to bring greater
light to this earth.

00:19:55.277 --> 00:19:57.613
We pray that if it
be thy will...

00:19:58.531 --> 00:20:00.658
that our desires may be...

00:20:02.869 --> 00:20:05.371
made manifest
through thy Holy Ghost

00:20:05.371 --> 00:20:08.875
and through thy spirit
to make this a possibility...

00:20:08.875 --> 00:20:10.668
[cell phone
chirps loudly]

00:20:10.668 --> 00:20:13.504
...is our prayer in the name
of Jesus Christ, amen.

00:20:13.504 --> 00:20:14.797
[All] Amen.

00:20:14.797 --> 00:20:16.674
[Josh] Tagg did that
on purpose.

00:20:16.674 --> 00:20:20.260
- Yeah!
- [chuckling]

00:20:20.260 --> 00:20:22.513
[Josh] Jenn,
I have to go downstairs.

00:20:22.513 --> 00:20:24.015
Nice prayer, Mom.

00:20:28.561 --> 00:20:30.521
It's gonna be okay.

00:20:30.521 --> 00:20:32.272
We'll be just fine.

00:20:34.108 --> 00:20:36.694
Okay, now I have
red eyes from everything.

00:20:36.694 --> 00:20:39.238
You're not feeling like it.

00:20:39.238 --> 00:20:41.240
Okay. Good luck.

00:20:41.240 --> 00:20:42.742
[Josh] We gotta run.

00:20:42.742 --> 00:20:44.493
- [Mitt] Come here.
- What are you crying for?

00:20:44.493 --> 00:20:46.913
These aren't
tears of sorrow.

00:20:46.913 --> 00:20:49.082
These are tears
of gratitude.

00:20:52.001 --> 00:20:54.212
Not tears of sorrow at all.

00:20:56.296 --> 00:20:59.800
Our Republican
presidential forum

00:20:56.296 --> 00:20:59.800
continues here on FOX News.

00:20:59.800 --> 00:21:03.470
Mike Huckabee,
who served ten years

00:20:59.800 --> 00:21:03.470
as governor of Arkansas.

00:21:03.470 --> 00:21:05.305
Mitt Romney, former governor

00:21:05.305 --> 00:21:07.516
of the neighboring state
of Massachusetts.

00:21:07.516 --> 00:21:10.644
And John McCain,
now serving his fourth term

00:21:10.644 --> 00:21:12.438
as U.S. Senator from Arizona.

00:21:12.438 --> 00:21:14.648
Gentlemen, welcome.
Let's get to it.

00:21:14.648 --> 00:21:16.609
When we talked earlier today,

00:21:16.609 --> 00:21:18.736
you said that in fact
you think that your record

00:21:18.736 --> 00:21:20.780
as a flip-flopper pales

00:21:20.780 --> 00:21:24.200
in comparison
to some of the other

00:21:20.780 --> 00:21:24.200
people here at the table.

00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:27.995
What I'd say
is I'm certainly not

00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:27.995
the only person at this table

00:21:27.995 --> 00:21:30.206
that's changed
their mind on a position,

00:21:30.206 --> 00:21:33.167
and I certainly would
far be in favor of a person

00:21:33.167 --> 00:21:36.170
who has the willingness
to say I was wrong

00:21:36.170 --> 00:21:38.672
and change their position
and become right,

00:21:38.672 --> 00:21:40.299
than someone
who is so stubborn as to say

00:21:40.299 --> 00:21:42.843
they're not going
to change their position.

00:21:42.843 --> 00:21:45.846
I've spent my life
in a place where I've

00:21:42.843 --> 00:21:45.846
been able to bring change.

00:21:45.846 --> 00:21:48.099
I will change Washington,

00:21:48.099 --> 00:21:49.934
to make sure that the America

00:21:49.934 --> 00:21:53.520
our kids inherit is every bit
as great, even greater,

00:21:53.520 --> 00:21:56.232
than what we received
from the Greatest Generation.

00:21:56.232 --> 00:21:57.900
Gentlemen, well, that's it

00:21:57.900 --> 00:22:00.153
for the FOX Republican
presidential candidates forum.

00:22:00.153 --> 00:22:03.072
Now the analysis starts
about what happened

00:22:00.153 --> 00:22:03.072
here tonight.

00:22:03.072 --> 00:22:05.574
First off, show of hands,
how many of you walked in here

00:22:05.574 --> 00:22:07.868
without a committed candidate?
Raise your hands.

00:22:07.868 --> 00:22:10.579
How many of you walked in here
supporting Mitt Romney?

00:22:10.579 --> 00:22:13.166
Raise your hands.

00:22:13.166 --> 00:22:16.169
How many of you
are going to leave here

00:22:13.166 --> 00:22:16.169
supporting Mitt Romney?

00:22:16.169 --> 00:22:18.420
[cheers and applause]

00:22:18.420 --> 00:22:21.924
[Woman] I just believe
that Mitt Romney

00:22:18.420 --> 00:22:21.924
has such presence,

00:22:21.924 --> 00:22:25.303
and he speaks
right off the cuff,

00:22:21.924 --> 00:22:25.303
confident,

00:22:25.303 --> 00:22:27.930
and is very,
very well versed.

00:22:27.930 --> 00:22:30.933
[cheers and applause]

00:22:30.933 --> 00:22:33.060
You knocked it dead!

00:22:34.561 --> 00:22:36.105
Hey.

00:22:38.232 --> 00:22:39.942
I wasn't feeling
very good about it.

00:22:39.942 --> 00:22:41.401
Oh, my--

00:22:41.401 --> 00:22:43.529
How many are for Mitt Romney
after the debate?

00:22:43.529 --> 00:22:46.782
Twenty-eight.
Every hand, every hand.

00:22:49.285 --> 00:22:50.494
You were fantastic.

00:22:50.494 --> 00:22:51.704
[Man] I've never seen
a better debate.

00:22:51.704 --> 00:22:53.080
How did you feel
on the stage?

00:22:53.080 --> 00:22:56.000
- [Mitt] I thought I was dying.
- [laughter]

00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:57.918
[Man] Here comes
Frank Luntz!

00:22:57.918 --> 00:22:59.879
The blue line represents
moderates,

00:22:59.879 --> 00:23:02.298
and Mitt
Romney consistently

00:22:59.879 --> 00:23:02.298
got the best responses

00:23:02.298 --> 00:23:03.966
of the entire evening.

00:23:03.966 --> 00:23:06.677
Two days to go, Mitt Romney
hit a home run tonight.

00:23:06.677 --> 00:23:08.304
Brit, back to you.

00:23:08.304 --> 00:23:10.014
All right, Frank,
thanks very much.

00:23:10.014 --> 00:23:11.389
Chris Wallace,
the moderator of

00:23:10.014 --> 00:23:11.389
tonight's forum,

00:23:11.389 --> 00:23:12.933
will join us shortly
for a debrief,

00:23:12.933 --> 00:23:14.392
but first,
after a break...

00:23:14.392 --> 00:23:17.063
That is pretty rare.
That is pretty rare.

00:23:17.063 --> 00:23:19.023
Thanks.

00:23:19.023 --> 00:23:21.067
We're messing
his hair up!

00:23:21.067 --> 00:23:23.027
[laughter]

00:23:23.027 --> 00:23:25.154
[Woman] He's gonna fall
asleep on his feet.

00:23:25.154 --> 00:23:26.530
Governor,
is there a plan "B"

00:23:26.530 --> 00:23:28.199
if things don't go
as you hope tomorrow?

00:23:28.199 --> 00:23:30.450
[Mitt] I'm planning on it
going real well, thanks.

00:23:30.450 --> 00:23:32.161
I'm very excited
about the prospect,

00:23:32.161 --> 00:23:34.288
and last night's debate

00:23:34.288 --> 00:23:36.707
gave me just the boost I need
to take it over the top.

00:23:37.875 --> 00:23:39.543
Hillary Clinton
beat Barack Obama?

00:23:39.543 --> 00:23:42.338
- [Man] Well, six percent in.
- [Woman] Seven.

00:23:42.338 --> 00:23:44.924
Yeah, but that's a bigger poll
than I've ever seen.

00:23:44.924 --> 00:23:47.218
You ever seen a poll
with 10,000 people in it?

00:23:47.218 --> 00:23:48.468
[Man] Yeah, but
it's not a sample.

00:23:48.468 --> 00:23:49.720
[Man #2] What city?

00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:50.971
There's different
parts of the state.

00:23:50.971 --> 00:23:52.639
[Mitt] Still.

00:23:55.017 --> 00:23:56.476
And mine's getting worse.

00:23:56.476 --> 00:23:58.145
[Man] Eight thousand votes.
And 250.

00:23:58.145 --> 00:24:01.815
I'm sorry,
it's getting worse.

00:24:01.815 --> 00:24:04.484
Ooh, that's not good.
That's not good. Okay.

00:24:04.484 --> 00:24:06.946
The Flipping Mormon.
I can't fix the Mormon side,

00:24:06.946 --> 00:24:08.697
or I won't fix
the Mormon side.

00:24:08.697 --> 00:24:09.949
The flipping side...

00:24:09.949 --> 00:24:11.158
And that would hurt
the flipping, too.

00:24:11.158 --> 00:24:13.411
Yes, that would,
wouldn't it?

00:24:13.411 --> 00:24:17.331
The flipping side
continues to be a problem,

00:24:17.331 --> 00:24:19.250
and I think it's
the reason, by the way,

00:24:19.250 --> 00:24:21.501
twenty-seven papers here
went along with it.

00:24:21.501 --> 00:24:24.630
I can't do anything.
I mean, it's like,

00:24:21.501 --> 00:24:24.630
"Your speech has changed!

00:24:24.630 --> 00:24:26.299
See? You're flipping again!"

00:24:26.299 --> 00:24:28.634
It's like, "You can't
change your stump speech?"

00:24:28.634 --> 00:24:31.137
That's a flip-flop,
if you change your speech?

00:24:31.137 --> 00:24:33.222
I mean, it's literally,
there's nothing I can do.

00:24:33.222 --> 00:24:35.933
"He was at Burger King
last night, McDonald's

00:24:33.222 --> 00:24:35.933
the night before!"

00:24:35.933 --> 00:24:38.811
I mean, it's really--
is there-- is there

00:24:35.933 --> 00:24:38.811
any way--

00:24:38.811 --> 00:24:42.356
I mean, do we
put on my website

00:24:38.811 --> 00:24:42.356
what my positions are?

00:24:42.356 --> 00:24:44.984
Do we answer
the flipping charges?

00:24:44.984 --> 00:24:47.236
And say, here-- you know--

00:24:47.236 --> 00:24:49.071
this is what
his position is on this.

00:24:49.071 --> 00:24:51.489
And it's like,
That's where it is,

00:24:49.071 --> 00:24:51.489
and stop saying it.

00:24:51.489 --> 00:24:53.284
You know, it's like--

00:24:53.284 --> 00:24:55.702
I mean, I keep--
you know, I keep hearing--

00:24:55.702 --> 00:24:57.413
no, but I keep hearing,
for instance,

00:24:57.413 --> 00:24:59.081
"You've changed your
position on gay marriage."

00:24:59.081 --> 00:25:00.624
It's like, "Yeah, okay,
I've changed my position."

00:25:00.624 --> 00:25:03.669
No, I haven't!
But they keep saying it.

00:25:03.669 --> 00:25:07.173
And it's like, is there
not some way of saying,

00:25:07.173 --> 00:25:10.217
"Stop buying the dog food
that's been shipped to you

00:25:07.173 --> 00:25:10.217
from McCain"?

00:25:10.217 --> 00:25:12.428
I did not change my position
on gay marriage.

00:25:12.428 --> 00:25:14.512
- He did. He did.
- [indistinct remark]

00:25:14.512 --> 00:25:17.557
Stop-- well, I'm
not worried about that.

00:25:17.557 --> 00:25:19.726
Time heals all wounds.
I'm not worried about that.

00:25:19.726 --> 00:25:21.895
Really, I'm not.
By the time--

00:25:21.895 --> 00:25:24.064
Ten years from now,
no one'll even know.

00:25:24.064 --> 00:25:26.400
It's like, "Weren't
you the guy that--

00:25:24.064 --> 00:25:26.400
I can't remember."

00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:28.402
You know, it's--
I'm not worried.

00:25:28.402 --> 00:25:31.571
But it's--
it's so damaging to me...

00:25:31.571 --> 00:25:34.450
That's how we all
remember Kerry.

00:25:34.450 --> 00:25:37.911
It's so damaging to me
that-- that-- that, um...

00:25:37.911 --> 00:25:40.873
that I don't know
that it's going to be

00:25:37.911 --> 00:25:40.873
that devastating

00:25:40.873 --> 00:25:43.625
in a place like Michigan.
Is there any way...?

00:25:43.625 --> 00:25:46.504
And it's like
trying to convince

00:25:43.625 --> 00:25:46.504
people that-- that--

00:25:46.504 --> 00:25:48.381
that Dan Quayle
is smart, all right?

00:25:48.381 --> 00:25:50.049
You're not gonna
convince 'em that

00:25:48.381 --> 00:25:50.049
Dan Quayle is smart,

00:25:50.049 --> 00:25:52.843
or that Gerry Ford
isn't a stumblebum.

00:25:52.843 --> 00:25:54.720
And maybe it's--
I gotta live with that.

00:25:54.720 --> 00:25:56.138
"Oh, you flip
on everything."

00:25:56.138 --> 00:25:58.891
In which case, I think
I'm a flawed candidate.

00:26:03.603 --> 00:26:05.022
You want me
to sign that one?

00:26:10.403 --> 00:26:12.738
[Woman] Good luck.
We're counting on you.

00:26:12.738 --> 00:26:15.282
[Man]  You must get down.
You must get discouraged.

00:26:15.282 --> 00:26:18.744
And... but every time I see you,
you're back up again.

00:26:20.120 --> 00:26:22.081
It's these pills I take.

00:26:22.081 --> 00:26:23.999
[laughter]

00:26:23.999 --> 00:26:27.169
When I came as close
as I did in both Iowa

00:26:23.999 --> 00:26:27.169
and New Hampshire,

00:26:27.169 --> 00:26:30.089
there's a greater sense
of, "Come on, guys.

00:26:27.169 --> 00:26:30.089
Don't you get it?"

00:26:30.089 --> 00:26:32.216
Why don't we say,
"Washington is broken."

00:26:32.216 --> 00:26:35.593
People said, "No,
that doesn't sound right,

00:26:32.216 --> 00:26:35.593
that doesn't sound right."

00:26:35.593 --> 00:26:37.637
And, uh, you know,
"I can turn it around."

00:26:37.637 --> 00:26:39.265
"No, don't use
'turnaround,'

00:26:39.265 --> 00:26:42.101
don't use
'Washington is broken.'"

00:26:42.101 --> 00:26:44.520
Now-- and so they didn't
like that early on.

00:26:44.520 --> 00:26:47.064
They liked the idea
of change. "Talk about

00:26:44.520 --> 00:26:47.064
change all the time."

00:26:47.064 --> 00:26:49.316
I said, "Well, change
is such a trite word.

00:26:49.316 --> 00:26:51.151
It's used all the time."

00:26:51.151 --> 00:26:53.404
And Alex Castellanos,
to his credit, said,

00:26:53.404 --> 00:26:56.073
"Just use it. It's good.
Just say change."

00:26:56.073 --> 00:26:58.033
I said, "No, I've
got to say something

00:26:58.033 --> 00:26:59.952
like 'Washington
is broken.'"

00:26:59.952 --> 00:27:02.662
And so we battled a bit,
and I used "change,"

00:27:02.662 --> 00:27:04.873
but I used it in more of
a philosophical way

00:27:04.873 --> 00:27:07.709
than I do now, and I make it
more-- more direct.

00:27:07.709 --> 00:27:10.463
So you can tell
a difference in listening

00:27:07.709 --> 00:27:10.463
to the speeches, is that right?

00:27:10.463 --> 00:27:13.215
[Man] Yeah, I-I thought
there was, uh...

00:27:13.215 --> 00:27:14.550
A change?

00:27:14.550 --> 00:27:17.553
But cars have changed
a lot since then,

00:27:17.553 --> 00:27:19.637
because in the places
they make cars,

00:27:19.637 --> 00:27:22.558
you either make a better car
or your competitor will,

00:27:22.558 --> 00:27:24.268
and he'll drive you
out of business.

00:27:24.268 --> 00:27:27.271
You change and get better,
or you're gone.

00:27:27.271 --> 00:27:29.231
And it's true throughout
the private sector,

00:27:29.231 --> 00:27:31.442
whether you're
selling insurance

00:27:29.231 --> 00:27:31.442
or selling shirts

00:27:31.442 --> 00:27:33.569
or making cars
or whatever you do.

00:27:33.569 --> 00:27:36.863
You better always be
making a better and better

00:27:33.569 --> 00:27:36.863
product or service,

00:27:36.863 --> 00:27:39.950
or somebody else will,
and you'll be out of business.

00:27:42.119 --> 00:27:44.246
- [Matt] Is he decent?
- Is he decent?

00:27:44.246 --> 00:27:47.249
This is bad news, right?

00:27:47.249 --> 00:27:49.126
Is he decent?

00:27:49.126 --> 00:27:51.420
- Almost.
- Is he in the bathtub?

00:27:51.420 --> 00:27:53.339
He's thinking
if you're coming up--

00:27:53.339 --> 00:27:54.923
[Mitt] I've got a robe on.
I'm out of the bathtub.

00:27:54.923 --> 00:27:57.343
Thirty-five,
twenty-nine, Romney!

00:27:57.343 --> 00:27:58.636
No, really?

00:27:58.636 --> 00:28:00.929
- Yeah, really.
- [Matt] Yeah.

00:28:00.929 --> 00:28:02.764
- Are you kidding?
- No.

00:28:02.764 --> 00:28:05.142
Can I get a hug?

00:28:05.142 --> 00:28:07.019
I said to Ann,
"I think we lost this one."

00:28:07.019 --> 00:28:09.355
Gosh. Unbelievable.

00:28:09.355 --> 00:28:11.315
We won one.
Can you believe it?

00:28:11.315 --> 00:28:13.066
- Really?
- Good job, Dad.

00:28:13.066 --> 00:28:14.776
It looks like we won one.

00:28:14.776 --> 00:28:16.362
Nice job.

00:28:16.362 --> 00:28:18.238
[indistinct remarks]

00:28:18.238 --> 00:28:19.823
Oh, gosh.

00:28:19.823 --> 00:28:21.992
I can't believe
I'm in this thing.

00:28:21.992 --> 00:28:23.452
[cheers and applause]

00:28:23.452 --> 00:28:29.291
[Crowd]
Mitt! Mitt! Mitt!

00:28:29.291 --> 00:28:32.336
Let's take this campaign
to South Carolina

00:28:32.336 --> 00:28:35.047
and Nevada and Florida
and all over the country.

00:28:35.047 --> 00:28:38.050
Let's take it all the way
to the White House!

00:28:38.050 --> 00:28:41.512
[cheers and applause]

00:29:00.030 --> 00:29:02.157
[Tagg] So, we're walking
back from dinner

00:29:02.157 --> 00:29:04.743
and, uh, I got a call
from Will Ritter.

00:29:04.743 --> 00:29:08.080
And Will said that
there was a news report

00:29:04.743 --> 00:29:08.080
that Charlie Crist,

00:29:08.080 --> 00:29:11.083
governor of Florida,
had endorsed John McCain.

00:29:11.083 --> 00:29:13.544
And Charlie Crist
had promised my dad

00:29:13.544 --> 00:29:16.380
multiple times
that he was gonna

00:29:13.544 --> 00:29:16.380
stay neutral.

00:29:16.380 --> 00:29:18.632
He talked to many people
on our campaign

00:29:18.632 --> 00:29:20.551
He promised 'em all
that he was gonna

00:29:18.632 --> 00:29:20.551
stay neutral.

00:29:20.551 --> 00:29:24.430
And now he's
announced that he's

00:29:20.551 --> 00:29:24.430
gonna endorse John McCain,

00:29:24.430 --> 00:29:26.306
and it's two days
before the election.

00:29:26.306 --> 00:29:27.974
This is a big deal.
It's a tight race,

00:29:27.974 --> 00:29:30.644
and it's probably enough
to tip it in McCain's favor.

00:29:30.644 --> 00:29:33.021
[Mitt] Wow, isn't this fun?

00:29:34.648 --> 00:29:36.191
You do something like this,
you call and say,

00:29:36.191 --> 00:29:37.484
"Look, I've made a decision."

00:29:37.484 --> 00:29:39.403
By the way,
we've all talked to him

00:29:39.403 --> 00:29:42.030
and said, "Are you
gonna endorse somebody?"

00:29:39.403 --> 00:29:42.030
And he said no.

00:29:42.030 --> 00:29:45.158
Don't you think now,
if you lose here with dignity,

00:29:45.158 --> 00:29:48.579
which is that Crist
and Martinez endorsed McCain.

00:29:48.579 --> 00:29:51.164
We were tied--
we were tied--

00:29:51.164 --> 00:29:54.000
We were tied,
and they came out

00:29:51.164 --> 00:29:54.000
and endorsed McCain,

00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:58.213
and-- and, um... you know,
whatever he promised them.

00:29:58.213 --> 00:30:01.007
And, you know,
we lost there, and that's

00:29:58.213 --> 00:30:01.007
just the way it is.

00:30:01.007 --> 00:30:06.138
[Crowd] Romney! Romney!
Romney! Romney!

00:30:06.138 --> 00:30:08.390
[chanting subsides]

00:30:08.390 --> 00:30:11.769
[speaking Spanish]
Many of you know that

00:30:08.390 --> 00:30:11.769
Mitt Romney is my papa.

00:30:11.769 --> 00:30:14.772
But I also wouldn't be here
if I didn't know that...

00:30:14.772 --> 00:30:16.856
...he would make
a great president.

00:30:16.856 --> 00:30:20.068
[crowd chanting]

00:30:23.905 --> 00:30:27.409
[chanting continues]

00:30:28.661 --> 00:30:30.496
[Mitt]
Thank you so much.

00:30:30.496 --> 00:30:32.038
[Newscaster] ...right now
leading in Tampa,

00:30:32.038 --> 00:30:33.666
leading along the coast
in St. Petersburg,

00:30:33.666 --> 00:30:35.083
leading down in Sarasota.

00:30:35.083 --> 00:30:36.960
So, if these numbers hold,

00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:39.379
it looks like John McCain would
win the state narrowly...

00:30:39.379 --> 00:30:42.466
We're getting
beat everywhere.

00:30:44.843 --> 00:30:46.595
Yeah.

00:30:46.595 --> 00:30:48.764
[Man] ... the war hero
who spent almost six years--

00:30:48.764 --> 00:30:52.601
more than five years--
as a POW in Vietnam,

00:30:52.601 --> 00:30:54.728
the longtime Senator
from Arizona,

00:30:54.728 --> 00:30:57.606
an important win
for John McCain.

00:30:57.606 --> 00:31:01.318
In Florida right now,
beating Mitt Romney,

00:31:01.318 --> 00:31:02.528
John McCain...

00:31:02.528 --> 00:31:05.405
Oh, this feels
worse than usual.

00:31:05.405 --> 00:31:06.657
[Woman]
Not worse than Iowa.

00:31:06.657 --> 00:31:08.200
What am I gonna say,
though?

00:31:09.451 --> 00:31:11.077
"Almost, but not quite."

00:31:12.412 --> 00:31:13.747
"Almost, but not quite."

00:31:13.747 --> 00:31:16.375
Six months ago
we laughed at John McCain.

00:31:16.375 --> 00:31:18.001
- [Ann] I know.
- Laughed.

00:31:18.001 --> 00:31:21.004
And now he's-- now he's
most likely the nominee.

00:31:21.004 --> 00:31:23.590
Even if he gets a majority
of the votes on the 5th...

00:31:23.590 --> 00:31:25.843
...there's still other states
after that.

00:31:25.843 --> 00:31:27.553
It's-- it's not over yet.

00:31:27.553 --> 00:31:29.304
But you're gonna
have to hit him.

00:31:29.304 --> 00:31:31.390
[Mitt] We've hit him
with everything we've got.

00:31:31.390 --> 00:31:34.184
He ran a smart campaign.

00:31:34.184 --> 00:31:35.686
[Man] He's got
a vision and room...

00:31:35.686 --> 00:31:39.022
He ran a smart campaign.
He beat us.

00:31:39.022 --> 00:31:41.734
[Scott] Why do you give up
when you've got a chance?

00:31:41.734 --> 00:31:44.611
If you resign
February 6th, fine,

00:31:41.734 --> 00:31:44.611
then do that.

00:31:44.611 --> 00:31:46.780
But until you're out,
don't give up.

00:31:46.780 --> 00:31:49.449
No one sends a check in.

00:31:49.449 --> 00:31:52.703
You have to be asked
at fundraisers, and

00:31:49.449 --> 00:31:52.703
I mean, it's just--

00:31:52.703 --> 00:31:54.788
and who's gonna want to come
to a big event for me?

00:31:54.788 --> 00:31:56.707
I mean, I didn't even
want to go to events!

00:31:56.707 --> 00:31:58.542
"Let me tell you
how I'm gonna win this!"

00:31:58.542 --> 00:32:02.087
It's like, oh, gosh, I can't--
I can't fake that.

00:32:02.087 --> 00:32:03.756
[Josh] I don't blame you.
I can't blame you.

00:32:03.756 --> 00:32:05.173
- You need to go to bed.
- To bed. Let's go.

00:32:05.173 --> 00:32:06.550
[Scott] We need to go
to bed, and you need...

00:32:06.550 --> 00:32:08.301
[Ann] Take care of whatever
it takes to sleep.

00:32:08.301 --> 00:32:10.220
But you need to realize
that you're the best

00:32:08.301 --> 00:32:10.220
candidate...

00:32:10.220 --> 00:32:12.305
- A year ago we told you...
- ...and keep at it.

00:32:12.305 --> 00:32:14.933
...that we'd love you
no matter how this thing

00:32:12.305 --> 00:32:14.933
turned out, and...

00:32:14.933 --> 00:32:16.518
- Now you're not so sure.
- Now we're not so sure!

00:32:16.518 --> 00:32:18.270
[laughter]

00:32:18.270 --> 00:32:19.688
[Josh]
You saw right there,

00:32:19.688 --> 00:32:21.314
he wants us all
to have given up.

00:32:21.314 --> 00:32:23.776
He doesn't want us
holding on to any hope.

00:32:23.776 --> 00:32:25.778
He hates to disappoint,

00:32:25.778 --> 00:32:28.238
and so this is--
he's disappointed.

00:32:28.238 --> 00:32:30.365
He thinks he's
disappointed the family

00:32:30.365 --> 00:32:31.991
and his supporters
and all these people,

00:32:31.991 --> 00:32:34.745
and I think that kills him
more than anything.

00:32:34.745 --> 00:32:36.914
And so, uh...

00:32:36.914 --> 00:32:38.916
hopefully he knows
how proud we are.

00:32:38.916 --> 00:32:40.626
We basically just
lost the presidency,

00:32:40.626 --> 00:32:42.711
and nobody's that upset.

00:32:42.711 --> 00:32:45.589
So... you know,
I think it shows that...

00:32:46.715 --> 00:32:48.717
we wanted to win,
yes, but...

00:32:50.093 --> 00:32:52.220
I mean, there's a lot
of downside to winning.

00:32:52.220 --> 00:32:55.140
A lot of downside.
And now we can avoid all that,

00:32:55.140 --> 00:32:58.351
and now just go
back to our lives

00:32:55.140 --> 00:32:58.351
and be pretty happy,

00:32:58.351 --> 00:33:00.729
so, uh, you know what?

00:33:00.729 --> 00:33:02.648
I'm not too upset.

00:33:02.648 --> 00:33:06.151
Um, now we get to go on
and do what we want to do

00:33:02.648 --> 00:33:06.151
and live our lives

00:33:06.151 --> 00:33:08.194
and have privacy
and all that, so...

00:33:08.194 --> 00:33:09.780
this is not all bad.

00:33:09.780 --> 00:33:11.907
[Scott] But I'll
tell you something else:

00:33:09.780 --> 00:33:11.907
in four years,

00:33:11.907 --> 00:33:13.450
the country's gonna be
in worse shape

00:33:13.450 --> 00:33:16.578
and gonna want to have
a real rethinking.

00:33:16.578 --> 00:33:18.580
I do not believe--

00:33:18.580 --> 00:33:20.666
there's people saying
this is a changing of

00:33:18.580 --> 00:33:20.666
the Republican Party.

00:33:20.666 --> 00:33:22.375
That's not really
what's happened here.

00:33:22.375 --> 00:33:24.085
That isn't-- that isn't--

00:33:24.085 --> 00:33:25.545
We're doing the same thing
we've always done--

00:33:25.545 --> 00:33:27.464
get the old guy who's in line.

00:33:27.464 --> 00:33:29.466
That's exactly right,
and the other thing

00:33:27.464 --> 00:33:29.466
is that there's
malaise about Bush,

00:33:31.468 --> 00:33:35.013
and-- and-- and that's
part of what's going on

00:33:31.468 --> 00:33:35.013
in this whole thing too.

00:33:35.013 --> 00:33:36.849
I got some real bad news.

00:33:36.849 --> 00:33:40.185
If that's the case...
you're the next guy in line.

00:33:40.185 --> 00:33:42.228
[Scott] That's right.
You're the next guy

00:33:40.185 --> 00:33:42.228
in line in four years.

00:33:42.228 --> 00:33:43.730
[Jenn] Four years.

00:33:57.243 --> 00:34:00.330
They asked again today,
some of our advisors did,

00:34:00.330 --> 00:34:03.917
would we think about doing it
in four years.

00:34:06.545 --> 00:34:08.588
I think I need to write
myself some notes

00:34:08.588 --> 00:34:11.633
as to why I would not want
to do that again,

00:34:11.633 --> 00:34:13.593
on how difficult this is,

00:34:13.593 --> 00:34:15.929
and...

00:34:15.929 --> 00:34:19.057
just say,
just remind myself,

00:34:19.057 --> 00:34:23.186
"If you're tempted,
the answer's no.

00:34:19.057 --> 00:34:23.186
It's too much."

[Woman]
Just three weeks ago,

00:36:57.090 --> 00:36:58.758
the former
Massachusetts governor

00:36:58.758 --> 00:37:00.593
was center stage in Tampa,

00:37:00.593 --> 00:37:02.637
at the Republican
National Convention,

00:37:02.637 --> 00:37:05.557
rallying his party
and making his case

00:37:02.637 --> 00:37:05.557
for the presidency.

00:37:05.557 --> 00:37:06.975
But then...

00:37:06.975 --> 00:37:08.935
There are 47% of
the people who will vote

00:37:08.935 --> 00:37:10.603
for the president
no matter what.

00:37:10.603 --> 00:37:12.939
There are 47%
who are with him

00:37:12.939 --> 00:37:14.774
who are dependent
upon government,

00:37:14.774 --> 00:37:16.818
who believe
that they are victims,

00:37:16.818 --> 00:37:19.445
who believe that government
has a responsibility

00:37:16.818 --> 00:37:19.445
to care for them,

00:37:19.445 --> 00:37:22.949
who believe
that they are entitled

00:37:19.445 --> 00:37:22.949
to health care, to food...

00:37:22.949 --> 00:37:27.370
[Woman] Mitt Romney
was caught on camera

00:37:22.949 --> 00:37:27.370
criticizing 47% of Americans

00:37:27.370 --> 00:37:29.372
who don't pay income taxes,

00:37:29.372 --> 00:37:33.085
characterizing them as victims
dependent upon government.

00:37:33.085 --> 00:37:35.587
The latest polls
show President Obama

00:37:35.587 --> 00:37:37.923
with a 5-, 7-,
sometimes 8-point lead

00:37:37.923 --> 00:37:39.799
in some battleground states,

00:37:39.799 --> 00:37:41.134
about a week and a half

00:37:41.134 --> 00:37:42.886
until the first
presidential debate.

00:37:42.886 --> 00:37:45.055
So the question we've
been hearing all week is,

00:37:45.055 --> 00:37:48.433
Can Mitt Romney survive
the errors of the past

00:37:45.055 --> 00:37:48.433
few weeks,

00:37:48.433 --> 00:37:51.477
or has the train
left the station?

00:37:51.477 --> 00:37:54.231
The comment about
the 47% was telling.

00:37:54.231 --> 00:37:57.192
It was... given
behind closed doors.

00:37:57.192 --> 00:37:59.527
But I think
what's more telling

00:37:57.192 --> 00:37:59.527
are the policies

00:37:59.527 --> 00:38:01.154
that Governor Romney
proposes

00:38:01.154 --> 00:38:03.698
because they fit in
with that philosophy.

00:38:04.866 --> 00:38:06.451
You know, in a campaign,

00:38:06.451 --> 00:38:08.161
you make hundreds,
maybe even thousands

00:38:08.161 --> 00:38:09.704
of speeches and interviews,

00:38:09.704 --> 00:38:11.330
and now and then
things don't come out

00:38:11.330 --> 00:38:12.916
exactly the way
you meant them.

00:38:12.916 --> 00:38:14.209
That may have happened to me
tonight once or twice.

00:38:14.209 --> 00:38:16.294
We'll find out
after the debate.

00:38:16.294 --> 00:38:18.130
But I can tell you this:

00:38:18.130 --> 00:38:21.049
My entire life has been devoted
to helping a hundred per cent

00:38:21.049 --> 00:38:22.801
of the people.

00:38:22.801 --> 00:38:25.303
Breaks my heart to see
the people in this country

00:38:25.303 --> 00:38:27.597
struggling under the policies
of this president.

00:38:27.597 --> 00:38:30.391
We've got 43 months
with unemployment

00:38:30.391 --> 00:38:32.644
above eight percent.

00:38:32.644 --> 00:38:34.562
That's the longest--

00:38:34.562 --> 00:38:36.606
Nah, I'm not gonna
go that way. Never mind.

00:38:36.606 --> 00:38:38.817
We've had 43 months
above eight percent.

00:38:41.236 --> 00:38:42.904
[Ann] We are about
to have our first

00:38:42.904 --> 00:38:45.073
presidential debate
against Barack Obama,

00:38:45.073 --> 00:38:47.784
October 3rd, 2012.

00:38:47.784 --> 00:38:50.745
Everyone in the world
is watching. No pressure.

00:38:50.745 --> 00:38:52.538
I love you very much.

00:38:52.538 --> 00:38:55.083
Just get a little something
in your tummy so you're not...

00:38:59.087 --> 00:39:00.797
So, any advice?

00:39:03.508 --> 00:39:05.051
Yes.

00:39:06.136 --> 00:39:08.554
[soft laughter]

00:39:14.644 --> 00:39:18.523
Conviction, from your heart,
as to why you're running.

00:39:18.523 --> 00:39:20.859
Conviction that...

00:39:20.859 --> 00:39:22.819
this country's
on the wrong course

00:39:22.819 --> 00:39:25.404
and that you are able
to put it on the right one.

00:39:25.404 --> 00:39:27.115
Conviction.

00:39:27.115 --> 00:39:29.450
Complete power
from within your heart.

00:39:31.536 --> 00:39:33.288
That's all.

00:39:44.341 --> 00:39:45.967
[Josh] We came into this
really nervous.

00:39:45.967 --> 00:39:48.261
The polls have been
not great.

00:39:48.261 --> 00:39:50.638
They've come back a little bit
in the last couple of days,

00:39:50.638 --> 00:39:53.516
but there's
a lot of pressure to do

00:39:50.638 --> 00:39:53.516
well at the debate tonight,

00:39:53.516 --> 00:39:56.644
and, uh, we were
really nervous, um,

00:39:56.644 --> 00:39:58.479
just thinking about

00:39:58.479 --> 00:40:00.481
President Obama,
he's a great speaker

00:40:00.481 --> 00:40:02.108
and, uh, just has--

00:40:02.108 --> 00:40:03.943
you know, he has
the mantel of the presidency.

00:40:03.943 --> 00:40:05.653
So do you
think this debate's

00:40:03.943 --> 00:40:05.653
gonna be different

00:40:05.653 --> 00:40:07.280
from the others
in that you'll be

00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:09.157
intimidated by the fact
that he's president...

00:40:09.157 --> 00:40:10.742
[Mitt]
Sure. Are you kidding?

00:40:10.742 --> 00:40:12.618
[Ann] We shouldn't
be intimidated.

00:40:12.618 --> 00:40:14.954
You should not be intimidated
by him. I'm not joking, Mitt.

00:40:14.954 --> 00:40:17.082
He's a very good debater.
He's a lot better than

00:40:14.954 --> 00:40:17.082
the other guys.

00:40:17.082 --> 00:40:19.334
He's a much more
effective debater

00:40:17.082 --> 00:40:19.334
than they are.

00:40:19.334 --> 00:40:21.211
Watch his tapes.
He does a very nice job.

00:40:21.211 --> 00:40:22.837
I feel like I would be
a little intimidated,

00:40:22.837 --> 00:40:24.297
but I think Mom's right.

00:40:24.297 --> 00:40:26.841
[Ann] Absolutely.
You should not be, at all.

00:40:26.841 --> 00:40:28.927
My inclination--
see, I would be afraid

00:40:28.927 --> 00:40:31.263
to kind of stand up to him
and afraid of how people

00:40:31.263 --> 00:40:33.723
would perceive
you standing up to

00:40:31.263 --> 00:40:33.723
the president, but I think--

00:40:33.723 --> 00:40:35.225
Oh, I think
they expect me to.

00:40:35.225 --> 00:40:36.726
I think so too.

00:40:36.726 --> 00:40:39.271
I'm not worried about that.
I represent the party

00:40:39.271 --> 00:40:40.855
that represents half
the people in this country.

00:40:40.855 --> 00:40:42.857
I got selected by that party.
I'm their nominee.

00:40:42.857 --> 00:40:44.067
And they're furious.

00:40:44.067 --> 00:40:45.651
And I'm gonna
stand up to this guy

00:40:45.651 --> 00:40:46.778
'cause he's taking us
in the wrong direction

00:40:46.778 --> 00:40:48.280
I got no problem doing that.

00:40:48.280 --> 00:40:49.406
When I get intense,

00:40:49.406 --> 00:40:51.574
it looks like
I'm angry and mad,

00:40:51.574 --> 00:40:53.743
you know, and my eyes
are in caves anyway,

00:40:53.743 --> 00:40:55.995
so it looks like
I'm being angry.

00:40:55.995 --> 00:40:58.081
Those are some of--
they showed some of your

00:40:58.081 --> 00:40:59.791
better moments
in your debates,

00:40:59.791 --> 00:41:01.500
those are some of
your better moments.

00:41:01.500 --> 00:41:02.919
You know, they showed you

00:41:02.919 --> 00:41:04.212
smacking down
Newt Gingrich there.

00:41:04.212 --> 00:41:05.546
That was one of
your best moments.

00:41:05.546 --> 00:41:07.215
I'll tell you,
I'm good at smack down

00:41:07.215 --> 00:41:08.800
if I have a piece
of information

00:41:08.800 --> 00:41:10.385
I can smack 'em
down with.

00:41:10.385 --> 00:41:12.595
If it's just
who can out-verbalize

00:41:10.385 --> 00:41:12.595
someone else...

00:41:12.595 --> 00:41:13.888
- Yeah.
- ...I'm... no.

00:41:13.888 --> 00:41:15.640
But the information,
you're prepared.

00:41:15.640 --> 00:41:17.558
Just shoot me an e-mail
with those numbers?

00:41:21.771 --> 00:41:23.856
Yeah, what's
the defense budget,

00:41:23.856 --> 00:41:26.359
you know, what's
Medicare budget...

00:41:27.819 --> 00:41:28.903
Okay?

00:41:28.903 --> 00:41:31.197
Thanks. All righty.
Okay, bye.

00:41:33.450 --> 00:41:35.452
The thing
that I don't get is,

00:41:35.452 --> 00:41:37.495
how come they
don't understand,

00:41:35.452 --> 00:41:37.495
like, how bad it is?

00:41:37.495 --> 00:41:40.665
Don't they get how bad it is,
for the small business?

00:41:40.665 --> 00:41:42.792
I mean, they--
I think they put

00:41:40.665 --> 00:41:42.792
these things in place

00:41:42.792 --> 00:41:44.502
thinking they're gonna
hurt the big guys

00:41:44.502 --> 00:41:47.172
and, you know,
put it in place

00:41:44.502 --> 00:41:47.172
for the big banks

00:41:47.172 --> 00:41:48.840
and the big corporations,

00:41:48.840 --> 00:41:51.926
but don't they
realize how much

00:41:48.840 --> 00:41:51.926
it hurts the 35...

00:41:51.926 --> 00:41:53.178
Thirty-five people.

00:41:53.178 --> 00:41:54.762
...people,
you know, employees?

00:41:54.762 --> 00:41:56.306
They don't know
how hard it is.

00:41:56.306 --> 00:41:58.766
They don't know--
they have not been

00:41:56.306 --> 00:41:58.766
in a setting

00:41:58.766 --> 00:42:00.685
where you're
trying to make it,

00:42:00.685 --> 00:42:02.770
where you've got
a little business

00:42:00.685 --> 00:42:02.770
and you're trying to make it.

00:42:02.770 --> 00:42:04.063
They don't know
how hard that is.

00:42:04.063 --> 00:42:05.731
They're all lawyers,
aren't they?

00:42:05.731 --> 00:42:07.359
They're lawyers.
They assume it's

00:42:05.731 --> 00:42:07.359
always there,

00:42:07.359 --> 00:42:08.818
and business
is always there.

00:42:08.818 --> 00:42:10.945
They don't know
that businesses fail,

00:42:10.945 --> 00:42:12.613
that people
go out of business,

00:42:12.613 --> 00:42:15.700
that they lose
their life savings,

00:42:12.613 --> 00:42:15.700
they lose their job,

00:42:15.700 --> 00:42:17.660
but they start over again,

00:42:17.660 --> 00:42:19.662
but they don't know
how hard it is for

00:42:17.660 --> 00:42:19.662
a business to succeed,

00:42:19.662 --> 00:42:22.332
and they keep piling on
more and more,

00:42:22.332 --> 00:42:24.125
thinking, "Well, that's okay,
these guys will all do fine."

00:42:24.125 --> 00:42:27.295
At some point,
they don't do fine.

00:42:24.125 --> 00:42:27.295
That's the--

00:42:27.295 --> 00:42:30.256
But they, never
having been there,

00:42:27.295 --> 00:42:30.256
they don't understand it.

00:42:30.256 --> 00:42:32.175
In those early days
at Bain Capital,

00:42:32.175 --> 00:42:34.386
when we were investing
in businesses like Sanborn--

00:42:34.386 --> 00:42:36.429
you remember Sanborn,
the centrifuge company?

00:42:36.429 --> 00:42:39.516
I agonized over that.
Every night I thought

00:42:36.429 --> 00:42:39.516
about that.

00:42:39.516 --> 00:42:41.142
How are we gonna
get that to succeed?

00:42:41.142 --> 00:42:43.228
It was just--
and you know what?

00:42:41.142 --> 00:42:43.228
It didn't make it.

00:42:43.228 --> 00:42:44.812
Finally
went out of business.

00:42:44.812 --> 00:42:46.647
And it was like, Oh, boy.

00:42:46.647 --> 00:42:48.274
I'm beginning to realize
I have a debate tonight.

00:42:48.274 --> 00:42:50.360
It's tonight, isn't it,
that we're doing it?

00:42:50.360 --> 00:42:51.819
Mom, can I have
some Chapstick on?

00:42:51.819 --> 00:42:54.072
Look, Mom, this is--
it's not opened yet.

00:42:54.072 --> 00:42:55.532
There was a bunch of 'em
on that counter.

00:42:55.532 --> 00:42:59.118
[indistinct conversations]

00:42:59.118 --> 00:43:01.413
Whoa! It's windy!

00:43:01.413 --> 00:43:03.748
[indistinct remark]

00:43:03.748 --> 00:43:05.333
The curtains are blowing.

00:43:05.333 --> 00:43:07.419
[Mitt] Oh, gosh,
look at that garbage.

00:43:10.338 --> 00:43:11.839
[Girl] Pull the curtains.

00:43:30.024 --> 00:43:31.776
Thank you.

00:43:31.776 --> 00:43:33.445
[Tagg] Wipe your
hands when you're

00:43:31.776 --> 00:43:33.445
done, please, okay?

00:43:33.445 --> 00:43:35.821
This is all stinky.
Can you get the door for me?

00:43:39.576 --> 00:43:41.494
[Tagg] We were
admiring your purse.

00:43:41.494 --> 00:43:43.121
[Mitt] What is this?

00:43:46.416 --> 00:43:47.917
Go get 'em, Mom.

00:43:47.917 --> 00:43:49.877
[Man] ...not in the car,
but he can film

00:43:49.877 --> 00:43:51.754
and then run
into the family van.

00:43:51.754 --> 00:43:53.965
[Man #2] Is that all right?
I'll be down in a second.

00:43:55.133 --> 00:43:56.675
Jackson, you're up.

00:43:57.927 --> 00:44:00.721
[Man #3] Ann.
How are you feeling?

00:44:00.721 --> 00:44:03.057
Right now, very calm,
actually.

00:44:03.057 --> 00:44:05.101
Looking outside,
looking at the sun...

00:44:06.227 --> 00:44:07.937
feeling very calm.

00:44:12.900 --> 00:44:14.360
[Man] All right.

00:44:14.360 --> 00:44:18.156
Family members,
we're gonna get you movin'.

00:44:19.198 --> 00:44:20.741
Ann.

00:44:30.084 --> 00:44:31.794
Ready to go?

00:44:31.794 --> 00:44:34.005
[Man] I'm about
to pull the Guv if

00:44:31.794 --> 00:44:34.005
you're ready, John.

00:44:35.423 --> 00:44:38.635
- All right.
- Are we ready?

00:44:38.635 --> 00:44:40.178
Here we go.
All right.

00:44:45.766 --> 00:44:48.936
Got to keep moving
to the elevators.

00:44:48.936 --> 00:44:51.189
[Ann] Let's just get some,
uh, dirge music

00:44:51.189 --> 00:44:53.858
so that Mitt's walking
to his execution.

00:45:24.597 --> 00:45:27.058
- [Mitt] Off we go.
- [Man] Off we go.

00:45:49.372 --> 00:45:52.542
[Woman] Yeah, is that
insane that they'd

00:45:49.372 --> 00:45:52.542
close a major freeway...

00:45:52.542 --> 00:45:53.959
[Woman #2]
During rush hour.

00:45:53.959 --> 00:45:55.211
For us,
it is not today.

00:45:55.211 --> 00:45:57.171
People were having
a fit tonight.

00:45:57.171 --> 00:46:00.675
[Josh] The thing
we most hoped as we were

00:45:57.171 --> 00:46:00.675
praying as a family

00:46:00.675 --> 00:46:03.135
was that people
would see who my dad was,

00:46:03.135 --> 00:46:05.722
that they'd see
the guy we know.

00:46:05.722 --> 00:46:08.725
That's what we wanted.

00:46:08.725 --> 00:46:12.228
[Jim Lehrer] Let's
begin with jobs.

00:46:08.725 --> 00:46:12.228
What are...

00:46:12.228 --> 00:46:17.149
the major differences
between the two of you

00:46:17.149 --> 00:46:21.696
about how you would
go about creating new jobs?

00:46:21.696 --> 00:46:25.450
You know, four years ago
we went through

00:46:25.450 --> 00:46:27.326
the worst
financial crisis since

00:46:25.450 --> 00:46:27.326
the Great Depression

00:46:27.326 --> 00:46:29.621
[Josh] Fast forward an hour,
we're at the debate.

00:46:29.621 --> 00:46:32.331
First question,
my dad just nails it.

00:46:32.331 --> 00:46:34.542
And a woman came up to her
with a baby in her arms

00:46:34.542 --> 00:46:37.462
and said, "Ann, my husband
has had four jobs

00:46:37.462 --> 00:46:39.422
in three years,
part-time jobs.

00:46:39.422 --> 00:46:41.716
He has lost
his most recent job,

00:46:41.716 --> 00:46:43.800
and we've now
just lost our home.

00:46:43.800 --> 00:46:45.303
Can you help us?"

00:46:45.303 --> 00:46:47.804
And the answer
is yes, we can help,

00:46:47.804 --> 00:46:49.682
but it's gonna take
a different path.

00:46:49.682 --> 00:46:51.601
And my dad just,
one after the next,

00:46:51.601 --> 00:46:54.729
is just answering
the questions directly

00:46:54.729 --> 00:46:57.814
with force, with power.

00:46:57.814 --> 00:47:01.193
About ten, 15 minutes into it,
it's like, this is going well.

00:47:01.193 --> 00:47:03.154
This is going really well.

00:47:03.154 --> 00:47:05.615
An hour into it, it's like,
This couldn't be going better.

00:47:05.615 --> 00:47:07.366
And it's like, Please end.

00:47:07.366 --> 00:47:09.786
End immediately.
I was looking at

00:47:07.366 --> 00:47:09.786
the lady next to me.

00:47:09.786 --> 00:47:11.287
I kept looking at
her watch. It's like...

00:47:11.287 --> 00:47:12.871
This has got to stop.

00:47:12.871 --> 00:47:14.624
And now, from
the University of Denver,

00:47:14.624 --> 00:47:18.294
I'm Jim Lehrer.
Thank you, and good night.

00:47:18.294 --> 00:47:21.422
[Josh] An hour and a half later,
he just absolutely crushed it.

00:47:25.718 --> 00:47:28.095
[Man] They started
off with a handshake

00:47:25.718 --> 00:47:28.095
and a smile.

00:47:28.095 --> 00:47:30.181
They wound up with
a handshake and a smile,

00:47:30.181 --> 00:47:32.642
and now they're meeting
their respective families

00:47:32.642 --> 00:47:35.812
at the end of this 90-minute
debate, as you can see

00:47:32.642 --> 00:47:35.812
on the screen.

00:47:35.812 --> 00:47:39.357
The president actually spoke
for more than four minutes...

00:47:49.200 --> 00:47:50.702
[Woman] Way to go, Dad!

00:47:52.829 --> 00:47:54.038
[Mitt] Thank you.

00:47:54.038 --> 00:47:56.040
Good job, Guv.
Great job, sir.

00:47:56.040 --> 00:47:57.792
Nice work. Nice work.

00:47:57.792 --> 00:48:00.211
We're running,
we're running.

00:48:00.211 --> 00:48:01.713
[Woman #2] Excellent
job in there.

00:48:01.713 --> 00:48:03.631
God bless you!
God bless you!

00:48:03.631 --> 00:48:05.132
...gonna walk in real fast.

00:48:05.132 --> 00:48:07.051
[Josh] Can I just ask you,
like, how do you feel?

00:48:07.051 --> 00:48:08.344
Great.

00:48:08.344 --> 00:48:10.221
I mean, just like,
relieved...?

00:48:10.221 --> 00:48:12.264
Is it like
relief or joy or...?

00:48:12.264 --> 00:48:13.850
[Ann] Yeah, come on in.

00:48:13.850 --> 00:48:16.394
[Mitt] Sitting presidents
have a very hard time

00:48:16.394 --> 00:48:19.021
in these debates:
George Herbert Walker did,

00:48:19.021 --> 00:48:21.858
George W. did,
because they feel like,

00:48:21.858 --> 00:48:23.442
"Who is this whippersnapper
coming up here

00:48:23.442 --> 00:48:24.777
that knows nothing?

00:48:24.777 --> 00:48:26.571
I'm president
of the United States.

00:48:26.571 --> 00:48:28.656
I've been all over the world.
I meet with world leaders.

00:48:28.656 --> 00:48:31.450
I'm the commander in chief.
I know all these things."

00:48:31.450 --> 00:48:33.327
And they come in, this--

00:48:33.327 --> 00:48:35.872
and so they don't prepare,
they don't prepare,

00:48:35.872 --> 00:48:37.665
and they just think
they can just waltz through it.

00:48:37.665 --> 00:48:39.417
'Cause they've done the job.

00:48:39.417 --> 00:48:41.001
'Cause they've done the job
and they know everything.

00:48:41.001 --> 00:48:42.503
Then they get crushed
in the first debate,

00:48:42.503 --> 00:48:44.380
as George W. did,
as George Herbert Walker--

00:48:44.380 --> 00:48:46.173
and then they come
back from there.

00:48:46.173 --> 00:48:47.842
I don't think
they got crushed as

00:48:46.173 --> 00:48:47.842
badly as he got crushed.

00:48:47.842 --> 00:48:49.260
No, I think you're right.

00:48:49.260 --> 00:48:51.512
Kerry barely won
the first debate

00:48:49.260 --> 00:48:51.512
with George,

00:48:51.512 --> 00:48:52.971
and even in that debate,

00:48:52.971 --> 00:48:55.892
George Bush came across
as more trustworthy.

00:48:55.892 --> 00:48:58.436
Kerry looked-- Kerry
always looks pedantic.

00:48:58.436 --> 00:49:01.313
[Tagg] We will remind you
of that fact four years

00:48:58.436 --> 00:49:01.313
from now.

00:49:01.313 --> 00:49:03.190
[Man] It's unbelievable.

00:49:03.190 --> 00:49:04.941
He'll be better next time.

00:49:04.941 --> 00:49:06.943
[Josh] The guy who
did him, Greg, was

00:49:04.941 --> 00:49:06.943
actually really good.

00:49:06.943 --> 00:49:09.697
But you can be better
next time too.

00:49:09.697 --> 00:49:11.282
I've got a lot of good stories.

00:49:11.282 --> 00:49:13.075
I've got the guy that--
you know, electronics guy...

00:49:13.075 --> 00:49:14.577
[Scott] Yeah?

00:49:14.577 --> 00:49:16.662
You know, the actual numbers
on that, by the way,

00:49:16.662 --> 00:49:18.790
he had four employees,
including himself and his son.

00:49:18.790 --> 00:49:20.666
He had to cut two away.

00:49:20.666 --> 00:49:24.336
He makes guitar amplifiers,
the guy did.

00:49:24.336 --> 00:49:27.256
And he said
they calculated 65%

00:49:27.256 --> 00:49:29.341
of what they earned
went to government.

00:49:29.341 --> 00:49:30.802
Sixty-five percent.

00:49:30.802 --> 00:49:32.386
And he said,
"We were blown away."

00:49:32.386 --> 00:49:33.721
[Scott]
We can't survive that!

00:49:33.721 --> 00:49:35.514
But again--
well, it's-- it's--

00:49:35.514 --> 00:49:37.600
he said no one ever
calculates it this way.

00:49:37.600 --> 00:49:40.770
It's federal income tax,

00:49:40.770 --> 00:49:43.230
FICA, payroll tax,

00:49:43.230 --> 00:49:45.733
state income tax,
and then state sales tax.

00:49:45.733 --> 00:49:47.485
They did
all their sales tax.

00:49:47.485 --> 00:49:48.694
Real estate tax.

00:49:48.694 --> 00:49:50.321
And, uh,
what's the other tax?

00:49:50.321 --> 00:49:51.823
What about Social Security?

00:49:51.823 --> 00:49:53.532
Social Security,
that's FICA. Yeah,

00:49:51.823 --> 00:49:53.532
I already...

00:49:53.532 --> 00:49:56.327
- Gasoline.
- On gasoline. And gas tax.

00:49:56.327 --> 00:49:58.496
'Cause, you know, you don't
think about all those taxes.

00:49:58.496 --> 00:50:00.372
When you take all
of the taxes together

00:50:00.372 --> 00:50:02.917
and then you look
at how much money his

00:50:00.372 --> 00:50:02.917
business was making,

00:50:02.917 --> 00:50:05.670
he said, "Two-thirds of what
we make goes to government.

00:50:05.670 --> 00:50:08.881
And it's like,
you know, starting this

00:50:05.670 --> 00:50:08.881
business was high-risk.

00:50:08.881 --> 00:50:12.301
The chance of winning
was, like, ten percent,

00:50:08.881 --> 00:50:12.301
so we're making a profit,

00:50:12.301 --> 00:50:14.219
and then they take
two-thirds of it."

00:50:14.219 --> 00:50:15.680
He says that's crazy.

00:50:15.680 --> 00:50:17.765
I was with Papa John
of Papa John's Pizza.

00:50:17.765 --> 00:50:19.851
He said, "I wouldn't
start my company today.

00:50:19.851 --> 00:50:22.102
In this environment,
I wouldn't do it."

00:50:22.102 --> 00:50:24.939
I write-- I write down--
they get pretty sprawly here.

00:50:24.939 --> 00:50:26.816
- You can see it.
- Doodlies.

00:50:26.816 --> 00:50:28.359
That is amazing.

00:50:28.359 --> 00:50:32.446
I've learned that if I
write too much on the paper,

00:50:32.446 --> 00:50:34.824
I won't be able
to see it again.

00:50:32.446 --> 00:50:34.824
I'll get confused.

00:50:34.824 --> 00:50:37.326
- All three.
- [Ann] Mm-kay.

00:50:37.326 --> 00:50:39.912
That's what I start with: Dad.

00:50:39.912 --> 00:50:41.205
- Dad.
- Wait, wait, wait.

00:50:41.205 --> 00:50:42.540
I want to--
will you explain that?

00:50:42.540 --> 00:50:43.791
What is this that
I'm looking at?

00:50:43.791 --> 00:50:45.668
I just, uh, that's, um,

00:50:45.668 --> 00:50:47.837
that's my-- those are
my notes from the, uh...

00:50:47.837 --> 00:50:49.714
And you write those
when you get up there?

00:50:49.714 --> 00:50:51.841
When I get up there--
we didn't have

00:50:49.714 --> 00:50:51.841
any time this time.

00:50:51.841 --> 00:50:53.384
I didn't write
as much as I normally do,

00:50:53.384 --> 00:50:56.094
but I normally write
more when I get up there,

00:50:56.094 --> 00:50:57.972
just to remind me--
myself of things,

00:50:57.972 --> 00:51:01.057
but because we went
into questions with

00:50:57.972 --> 00:51:01.057
no prep time,

00:51:01.057 --> 00:51:02.810
I just wrote down
a couple of things.

00:51:01.057 --> 00:51:02.810
I wrote down "Dad."

00:51:02.810 --> 00:51:04.687
I always think
about Dad and about--

00:51:04.687 --> 00:51:06.355
about I'm standing
on his shoulders.

00:51:06.355 --> 00:51:08.064
I would not be there--

00:51:08.064 --> 00:51:10.401
there's no way
I would be able to be

00:51:08.064 --> 00:51:10.401
running for president

00:51:10.401 --> 00:51:12.110
if Dad hadn't done
what Dad did.

00:51:12.110 --> 00:51:14.070
He's the real deal.
The guy was born in Mexico.

00:51:14.070 --> 00:51:15.573
[Scott]
You're the real deal.

00:51:15.573 --> 00:51:17.491
No. He didn't have
a college degree.

00:51:17.491 --> 00:51:19.994
He became head
of a car company

00:51:17.491 --> 00:51:19.994
and became a governor.

00:51:19.994 --> 00:51:24.206
I mean, it would have
never entered my mind

00:51:19.994 --> 00:51:24.206
to be in politics.

00:51:24.206 --> 00:51:28.044
This guy--
how-- how can you

00:51:24.206 --> 00:51:28.044
go from his beginnings

00:51:28.044 --> 00:51:30.128
to think, "I can be
head of a car company,

00:51:30.128 --> 00:51:32.214
I can run for governor,
I can run for president"?

00:51:32.214 --> 00:51:34.884
I don't know how that gap--
all right?

00:51:34.884 --> 00:51:37.386
For me, I started
where he ended up, all right?

00:51:37.386 --> 00:51:39.889
I started off with
money and education

00:51:39.889 --> 00:51:41.557
and Harvard Business School
and Harvard Law School.

00:51:41.557 --> 00:51:44.268
For me, it's moving that far.
For him, it was like that.

00:51:44.268 --> 00:51:46.729
So, anyway, I write
Dad's name down,

00:51:46.729 --> 00:51:48.606
remembering him,

00:51:48.606 --> 00:51:51.149
and then I have
a little sun there.

00:51:51.149 --> 00:51:52.860
"Let your light so shine..."

00:51:54.612 --> 00:51:56.906
You guys want to take
a debate ticket

00:51:56.906 --> 00:51:59.241
for your
book of remembrance?

00:51:59.241 --> 00:52:01.159
[Tagg] Can we say
a thank-you prayer?

00:52:01.159 --> 00:52:05.121
Our Father in heaven,
we are thankful tonight

00:52:01.159 --> 00:52:05.121
to be able to gather

00:52:05.121 --> 00:52:07.249
after a successful day.

00:52:07.249 --> 00:52:08.876
We are thankful
for the many blessings

00:52:08.876 --> 00:52:10.377
that have been
bestowed upon us

00:52:10.377 --> 00:52:12.588
by virtue of the greatness
of our parents.

00:52:12.588 --> 00:52:15.382
We love and appreciate them.

00:52:15.382 --> 00:52:20.136
We pray-- thank thee
for Ann, my sweetheart,

00:52:20.136 --> 00:52:23.181
for her prayer
and her blessing

00:52:23.181 --> 00:52:25.935
that she gives to me
and to this effort.

00:52:25.935 --> 00:52:28.771
We're thankful
for our loved ones

00:52:25.935 --> 00:52:28.771
throughout the world

00:52:28.771 --> 00:52:30.439
and for the great joy
that we have

00:52:30.439 --> 00:52:34.568
to recognize that
all of these things

00:52:30.439 --> 00:52:34.568
will pass away

00:52:34.568 --> 00:52:37.321
and thy kingdom
and our families

00:52:37.321 --> 00:52:39.323
are that which will endure.

00:52:39.323 --> 00:52:40.908
We say these things

00:52:40.908 --> 00:52:42.576
with thankfulness
in our hearts

00:52:42.576 --> 00:52:44.453
in the name
of Jesus Christ. Amen.

00:52:44.453 --> 00:52:45.830
[All] Amen.

00:52:45.830 --> 00:52:48.749
She stabilizes my dad
completely.

00:52:48.749 --> 00:52:51.251
I mean, she helps him
have perspective

00:52:51.251 --> 00:52:54.170
and to unwind
and to not get

00:52:51.251 --> 00:52:54.170
too worked up,

00:52:54.170 --> 00:52:56.423
and to be able to relax.

00:52:56.423 --> 00:52:59.802
That's, uh, that's one of
her major strengths.

00:52:59.802 --> 00:53:02.513
When I first heard it,
my dad told me on the phone,

00:53:02.513 --> 00:53:04.015
and I didn't believe it.

00:53:04.015 --> 00:53:05.474
I said, "Well, that's--"

00:53:05.474 --> 00:53:07.143
It just didn't
make sense to me.

00:53:07.143 --> 00:53:08.477
This was my mom.
She doesn't have

00:53:07.143 --> 00:53:08.477
multiple sclerosis.

00:53:08.477 --> 00:53:10.186
They've misdiagnosed
her somehow.

00:53:10.186 --> 00:53:14.108
I think I was in denial,
and didn't realize it,

00:53:14.108 --> 00:53:18.112
and a couple of weeks
into it, I realized,

00:53:14.108 --> 00:53:18.112
"Wait, this is for real.

00:53:18.112 --> 00:53:20.196
She's really sick."

00:53:20.196 --> 00:53:22.741
And it hits you slowly.
It was right around

00:53:20.196 --> 00:53:22.741
Thanksgiving time,

00:53:22.741 --> 00:53:25.536
and it was really hard.
I mean, this is your mom.

00:53:25.536 --> 00:53:28.873
And it just happens
to other people;

00:53:25.536 --> 00:53:28.873
it doesn't happen to you.

00:53:28.873 --> 00:53:30.875
And all of a sudden,
it's happening to you!

00:53:30.875 --> 00:53:32.626
There have been studies
that have shown

00:53:32.626 --> 00:53:34.920
that people who have MS,
for some reason,

00:53:34.920 --> 00:53:37.798
respond well
to riding horses,

00:53:37.798 --> 00:53:39.550
and they're not
quite sure why it is.

00:53:39.550 --> 00:53:42.427
The real factor for her
was being able to put

00:53:42.427 --> 00:53:45.056
her heart and soul
into something,

00:53:45.056 --> 00:53:49.476
and to connect with them
and go beyond herself,

00:53:49.476 --> 00:53:53.647
and so much of that
helped pull her out of

00:53:53.647 --> 00:53:57.233
the depression
that she was in

00:53:53.647 --> 00:53:57.233
over having her disease,

00:53:57.233 --> 00:53:59.987
and get beyond just
concentrating on being sick

00:53:59.987 --> 00:54:02.907
and start concentrating
on other things.

00:54:02.907 --> 00:54:05.034
It's when I get little
twinges of fatigue

00:54:05.034 --> 00:54:07.036
or I get little twinges of pain
or I get little--

00:54:07.036 --> 00:54:10.789
then I think, "Oh, no!
It's coming back!"

00:54:10.789 --> 00:54:14.043
So I'm always fearful
that it will come back

00:54:10.789 --> 00:54:14.043
and ravage me,

00:54:14.043 --> 00:54:17.337
but, um, if I really
stick to my guns

00:54:17.337 --> 00:54:21.133
and keep myself, you know,
this program that I have,

00:54:21.133 --> 00:54:22.760
I do fine.

00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:28.182
And I just have to make sure
to not get...

00:54:28.182 --> 00:54:31.309
too overwhelmed
with all of the travel

00:54:31.309 --> 00:54:33.604
and all the things that
happen in the campaign,

00:54:33.604 --> 00:54:35.689
that it gets me too fatigued,

00:54:35.689 --> 00:54:39.735
and I can do--
two or three days, I'm fine,

00:54:39.735 --> 00:54:42.446
on the campaign trail,
and then, day three or four,

00:54:42.446 --> 00:54:44.198
I am drooping and feeling

00:54:44.198 --> 00:54:46.158
pretty wasted
and really fatigued,

00:54:46.158 --> 00:54:49.120
and, um, you know, Mitt says,
"Get back on your horse,"

00:54:49.120 --> 00:54:51.663
and that's
all it takes, honestly.

00:54:49.120 --> 00:54:51.663
It's just amazing.

00:54:51.663 --> 00:54:53.540
How 'bout I just take it?

00:54:53.540 --> 00:54:56.668
How 'bout I just
take your tongue?

00:54:56.668 --> 00:54:59.004
Then you can't lick me.

00:54:59.004 --> 00:55:01.882
What am I gonna do
with your tongue?

00:54:59.004 --> 00:55:01.882
I got it, though.

00:55:01.882 --> 00:55:04.509
[laughter]

00:55:04.509 --> 00:55:05.844
Okay, here we go.

00:55:05.844 --> 00:55:08.222
I feel no pressure at all.

00:55:08.222 --> 00:55:11.767
I'm at complete peace
about the whole thing.

00:55:11.767 --> 00:55:16.354
And, um... I'm very confident
that Mitt is gonna win.

00:55:16.354 --> 00:55:18.732
I got it on, Garrett.
I tied it, I tied it.

00:55:18.732 --> 00:55:20.734
You did, you were
able to tie it.

00:55:20.734 --> 00:55:22.236
Well, sort of, kind of.

00:55:22.236 --> 00:55:23.946
I was just about
to come see you.

00:55:23.946 --> 00:55:25.781
Frumpy, but I made it.

00:55:25.781 --> 00:55:27.574
Gosh, you
look really good.

00:55:29.034 --> 00:55:31.120
You looked
at me and you said,

00:55:29.034 --> 00:55:31.120
"You look good."

00:55:31.120 --> 00:55:32.663
You looked
at her and you said,

00:55:31.120 --> 00:55:32.663
"You look really good."

00:55:32.663 --> 00:55:34.123
- Look at this.
- She's gorgeous.

00:55:34.123 --> 00:55:35.666
[Ann] It-- it looks
pretty good, though.

00:55:35.666 --> 00:55:37.751
Yeah, it looks good.
I wouldn't fool with it.

00:55:37.751 --> 00:55:40.296
I'm trying to iron
something here, so...

00:55:40.296 --> 00:55:43.174
See, the cuff--
this is a new shirt,

00:55:43.174 --> 00:55:45.383
so the cuff is all funny,
so I'm...

00:55:45.383 --> 00:55:46.885
[Garrett] Well,
that fits you great.

00:55:46.885 --> 00:55:48.470
So I'm trying to--

00:55:48.470 --> 00:55:50.848
I should have
done this before I

00:55:48.470 --> 00:55:50.848
put it on, of course.

00:55:50.848 --> 00:55:53.058
[Ann] Are you gonna iron it
on you, seriously?

00:55:53.058 --> 00:55:54.893
- Of course.
- [Garrett] Oh, my goodness.

00:55:56.103 --> 00:55:58.147
[Josh] This, uh,
this may not end well.

00:55:58.147 --> 00:56:00.149
[Ann laughing]

00:56:00.149 --> 00:56:02.734
[Ann] I love it.

00:56:02.734 --> 00:56:04.195
Look at this.

00:56:06.738 --> 00:56:10.742
It's working. Ouch.
It's sort of working.

00:56:10.742 --> 00:56:12.036
Ouch.

00:56:13.704 --> 00:56:15.914
Ouch.

00:56:15.914 --> 00:56:17.791
[Ann] All right, that's
good enough, Mitt.

00:56:15.914 --> 00:56:17.791
For goodness sakes.

00:56:17.791 --> 00:56:19.417
In the dark,
you can't see wrinkles.

00:56:19.417 --> 00:56:22.213
You got the speech?
Can I look at the speech?

00:56:23.379 --> 00:56:25.090
Okay.

00:56:25.090 --> 00:56:27.134
[Ann] I have to go down
and make sure I've

00:56:25.090 --> 00:56:27.134
got my lipstick.

00:56:27.134 --> 00:56:28.760
[Emcee]
It is my great honor

00:56:28.760 --> 00:56:31.305
to welcome Mrs. Ann Romney...

00:56:32.348 --> 00:56:33.932
and the honorable Mitt Romney,

00:56:33.932 --> 00:56:36.268
former governor of
the state of Massachusetts.

00:56:36.268 --> 00:56:40.189
[cheers and applause]

00:56:40.189 --> 00:56:42.691
[no audible dialogue]

00:56:44.400 --> 00:56:46.153
And the honorable Barack Obama,

00:56:46.153 --> 00:56:49.990
44th president of
the United States of America!

00:56:49.990 --> 00:56:54.578
Well, you are right,
a campaign can require

00:56:49.990 --> 00:56:54.578
a lot of wardrobe changes.

00:56:54.578 --> 00:56:56.872
Blue jeans
in the morning, perhaps.

00:56:56.872 --> 00:57:00.416
A suit for a lunch fundraiser.
Sport coat for dinner.

00:57:00.416 --> 00:57:02.627
But it's nice to finally relax

00:57:02.627 --> 00:57:04.963
and to wear what Ann and I
wear around the house.

00:57:04.963 --> 00:57:07.049
[laughter]

00:57:13.931 --> 00:57:15.974
[Man] The window seat
on an overbooked

00:57:15.974 --> 00:57:17.935
cross-country flight?

00:57:17.935 --> 00:57:19.686
Don't mind if I do!

00:57:19.686 --> 00:57:24.733
[laughter]

00:57:24.733 --> 00:57:27.111
I ordered myself
a "stadium pal"

00:57:27.111 --> 00:57:30.322
and realized
that while it might

00:57:27.111 --> 00:57:30.322
make sense in the hospital,

00:57:30.322 --> 00:57:34.076
it really wasn't very practical
for day-to-day use.

00:57:34.076 --> 00:57:36.120
In an open-air sporting arena

00:57:36.120 --> 00:57:40.916
a piping hot
32-ounce bag of urine

00:57:36.120 --> 00:57:40.916
might go unnoticed.

00:57:40.916 --> 00:57:45.837
[laughter]

00:57:48.715 --> 00:57:51.009
Um, are--
this is supposed to be

00:57:51.009 --> 00:57:52.636
foreign policy
though, right?

00:57:52.636 --> 00:57:54.554
- No, the next one.
- Oh, it is?

00:57:54.554 --> 00:57:55.889
This is
just the Town Hall.

00:57:55.889 --> 00:57:57.391
This is supposed
to be just a brawl.

00:57:57.391 --> 00:57:59.393
So this is--
and is it supposedly

00:57:57.391 --> 00:57:59.393
just the voters

00:57:59.393 --> 00:58:01.312
who are asking
these questions,

00:57:59.393 --> 00:58:01.312
or are they--?

00:58:01.312 --> 00:58:03.105
Yeah, but Candy Crowley
gets to pick the questions.

00:58:03.105 --> 00:58:05.565
[Mitt] She gets
to pick the questions,

00:58:03.105 --> 00:58:05.565
but the rules are

00:58:05.565 --> 00:58:07.443
that she cannot participate

00:58:07.443 --> 00:58:09.611
or ask any follow-on
questions.

00:58:09.611 --> 00:58:12.697
I'm just a little
concerned that they've spent

00:58:09.611 --> 00:58:12.697
five days in debate prep.

00:58:12.697 --> 00:58:14.325
[Ann] Doesn't matter.

00:58:14.325 --> 00:58:16.076
You know what?
Then he's gonna be

00:58:14.325 --> 00:58:16.076
better than he was.

00:58:16.076 --> 00:58:18.454
There's no question
he's gonna be better

00:58:16.076 --> 00:58:18.454
than he was.

00:58:18.454 --> 00:58:20.538
He was-- he was
a disaster last time,

00:58:20.538 --> 00:58:21.999
and he will not be
a disaster this time.

00:58:21.999 --> 00:58:24.335
But you know what?
You won't, as long as--

00:58:24.335 --> 00:58:27.963
You just do well
yourself. Don't worry

00:58:24.335 --> 00:58:27.963
about how he does.

00:58:27.963 --> 00:58:30.632
- Just be yourself.
- What you got there?

00:58:30.632 --> 00:58:32.426
Oh, the mother lode!

00:58:32.426 --> 00:58:35.137
Dad, it wasn't like he
just lost last time.

00:58:32.426 --> 00:58:35.137
You won.

00:58:35.137 --> 00:58:37.889
Yeah, do what
you did last time.

00:58:35.137 --> 00:58:37.889
It was awesome.

00:58:37.889 --> 00:58:39.350
Yeah, it's easy.

00:58:39.350 --> 00:58:41.059
Here's my hypothesis
on the race.

00:58:41.059 --> 00:58:43.437
There are a lot
of people who are

00:58:41.059 --> 00:58:43.437
disappointed in Obama

00:58:43.437 --> 00:58:45.063
and don't want
to vote for him,

00:58:45.063 --> 00:58:47.024
but they're not sure
if they can vote for you

00:58:47.024 --> 00:58:49.276
because they think
that there's this bad

00:58:47.024 --> 00:58:49.276
caricature of you out there.

00:58:49.276 --> 00:58:50.861
Right.

00:58:50.861 --> 00:58:52.779
And the last debate was
the first time they've seen,

00:58:52.779 --> 00:58:54.490
"Oh, wait a minute,
maybe he's not."

00:58:54.490 --> 00:58:56.200
So tonight's just another
chance for you to show

00:58:56.200 --> 00:58:57.909
that you're a good person
with good ideas.

00:58:57.909 --> 00:58:59.661
That was Murphy's comment.

00:58:59.661 --> 00:59:01.538
My team thinks, no,
I've got to be the aggressor.

00:59:01.538 --> 00:59:04.958
I've got to be
out there prosecuting,

00:59:01.538 --> 00:59:04.958
pushing hard.

00:59:04.958 --> 00:59:07.794
- I agree.
- Well, you-- you can't--

00:59:07.794 --> 00:59:09.629
You can be a good guy
and be pushing hard.

00:59:09.629 --> 00:59:11.340
I agree with your team.
Do what your team says.

00:59:11.340 --> 00:59:12.883
They have
a much better sense.

00:59:12.883 --> 00:59:14.343
You did it
exactly right last time.

00:59:14.343 --> 00:59:16.428
He did both.
He did both last time.

00:59:16.428 --> 00:59:19.014
You know, though,
you've been more

00:59:16.428 --> 00:59:19.014
aggressive, I think,

00:59:19.014 --> 00:59:20.974
than in the last--
in the past,

00:59:20.974 --> 00:59:22.351
so you can do it.
You've done it before.

00:59:22.351 --> 00:59:24.061
We can't give him
any more advice.

00:59:24.061 --> 00:59:26.063
- I think it's a bad idea.
- We must all be quiet.

00:59:26.063 --> 00:59:28.524
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I appreciate the counsel

00:59:26.063 --> 00:59:28.524
and advice,

00:59:28.524 --> 00:59:31.693
I just don't listen to it.
I'm kidding.

00:59:31.693 --> 00:59:35.239
I was reading
John Kerry just went on

00:59:31.693 --> 00:59:35.239
a 10-minute tirade about you.

00:59:35.239 --> 00:59:38.616
He said-- the example
he gave was, uh,

00:59:38.616 --> 00:59:40.827
that Romney's got
elevators for his cars

00:59:40.827 --> 00:59:43.497
and in the State House he had
his own personal elevator,

00:59:43.497 --> 00:59:46.041
which is rich,
coming from John Kerry,

00:59:43.497 --> 00:59:46.041
of all people.

00:59:47.709 --> 00:59:50.628
But I will
bet you the elevator

00:59:47.709 --> 00:59:50.628
comes up tonight.
"It was for my wife's M.S.,

00:59:54.425 --> 00:59:57.344
you A-hole."

00:59:57.344 --> 01:00:00.264
[laughter]

01:00:00.264 --> 01:00:02.807
I would love just being
asked the questions.

01:00:00.264 --> 01:00:02.807
That'd be great.

01:00:02.807 --> 01:00:04.768
It's all the things
I've got to do:

01:00:04.768 --> 01:00:07.229
the moderator
and Barack Obama

01:00:04.768 --> 01:00:07.229
and attack him.

01:00:07.229 --> 01:00:09.356
Stuart says,
"Look, on each question,

01:00:09.356 --> 01:00:11.691
you've got to make
a connection with the person

01:00:09.356 --> 01:00:11.691
that asks the question.

01:00:11.691 --> 01:00:13.569
Then, number two,
you've got to answer

01:00:11.691 --> 01:00:13.569
the question.

01:00:13.569 --> 01:00:15.320
Then, number three,
you've got to set

01:00:13.569 --> 01:00:15.320
the broader stage.

01:00:15.320 --> 01:00:17.072
Number four, you've got
to attack Barack Obama

01:00:17.072 --> 01:00:18.615
so he has
to respond to you."

01:00:18.615 --> 01:00:21.118
It's like,
"I've got a minute."

01:00:21.118 --> 01:00:23.787
I mean, you know,
that's 120 words.

01:00:23.787 --> 01:00:25.830
It's like,
I can't do that.

01:00:25.830 --> 01:00:28.459
Again, I'm really,
really glad that it's

01:00:25.830 --> 01:00:28.459
you and not me.

01:00:28.459 --> 01:00:31.295
I just-- and when I try--
when I try and do it,

01:00:28.459 --> 01:00:31.295
I can't do it.

01:00:31.295 --> 01:00:34.465
When I try and practice it,
it's like I can't get

01:00:31.295 --> 01:00:34.465
all that stuff in.

01:00:34.465 --> 01:00:36.633
I can't do it all, and then
I start speaking fast,

01:00:36.633 --> 01:00:38.469
and people say slow down.

01:00:38.469 --> 01:00:39.886
It's like, you know,
all right,

01:00:39.886 --> 01:00:42.222
you've got to slow down
and be calm.

01:00:42.222 --> 01:00:44.099
Don't speak so quickly.

01:00:44.099 --> 01:00:46.684
Well, he's not
gonna do it either,

01:00:44.099 --> 01:00:46.684
in a minute.

01:00:46.684 --> 01:00:49.396
But I look at it
and say, hey, if we

01:00:46.684 --> 01:00:49.396
come out where people say,

01:00:49.396 --> 01:00:51.565
"He did a good job,
you know"--

01:00:51.565 --> 01:00:55.193
our guys say we won,
their guys say

01:00:51.565 --> 01:00:55.193
they won, fine.

01:00:55.193 --> 01:00:57.571
Yeah.

01:00:57.571 --> 01:01:00.532
[Laurie] All right, well,
be a good boy for

01:00:57.571 --> 01:01:00.532
Kinsley, okay?

01:01:04.495 --> 01:01:07.289
[Josh] I wish you
a very happy birthday,

01:01:07.289 --> 01:01:10.208
and we appreciate
all the work you're doing.

01:01:10.208 --> 01:01:12.252
I got him psyched up.

01:01:12.252 --> 01:01:15.172
It's like,
old Obama's gonna tell us

01:01:12.252 --> 01:01:15.172
what he's gonna do.

01:01:15.172 --> 01:01:18.967
Oh. Hmm. Hmm. What am I
gonna tell us we're gonna do?

01:01:20.927 --> 01:01:22.387
Remember to answer
all the questions,

01:01:22.387 --> 01:01:23.847
but remember to tell us
what we're gonna do.

01:01:23.847 --> 01:01:25.641
[Josh] Bye.

01:01:25.641 --> 01:01:28.685
[Laurie] Is everybody
else doing all right?

01:01:25.641 --> 01:01:28.685
The baby's okay?

01:01:33.190 --> 01:01:37.986
[Announcer]
This is ABC World News

01:01:33.190 --> 01:01:37.986
with Diane Sawyer.

01:01:37.986 --> 01:01:39.737
[Diane Sawyer]
Good evening on

01:01:37.986 --> 01:01:39.737
this Tuesday night.

01:01:39.737 --> 01:01:41.698
As we come on the air,
President Obama

01:01:41.698 --> 01:01:44.826
and Governor Mitt Romney
are preparing to head

01:01:41.698 --> 01:01:44.826
into the arena

01:01:44.826 --> 01:01:48.705
for their second
big debate, and both men

01:01:44.826 --> 01:01:48.705
are on the ground

01:01:48.705 --> 01:01:50.957
just outside New York City.

01:01:50.957 --> 01:01:54.794
They know the power
of one night in this race.

01:02:00.467 --> 01:02:02.678
You know, I think any of
these attacks on wealth

01:02:02.678 --> 01:02:06.223
are something
you can just deflect.

01:02:02.678 --> 01:02:06.223
This isn't about...

01:02:06.223 --> 01:02:08.850
The American people,
they understood how

01:02:06.223 --> 01:02:08.850
I spend my money

01:02:08.850 --> 01:02:12.396
and how we're going
to spend theirs.

01:02:12.396 --> 01:02:14.690
The president's--
the president's spending

01:02:14.690 --> 01:02:16.983
trillions of dollars
of your money.

01:02:27.952 --> 01:02:29.996
- Love ya.
- You're gonna do it, Dad.

01:02:29.996 --> 01:02:31.915
Love ya. Love ya.

01:02:34.125 --> 01:02:35.586
Love ya.

01:02:35.586 --> 01:02:38.046
[camera shutter clicking]

01:02:38.046 --> 01:02:40.507
You gonna still love me
when it's over?

01:02:40.507 --> 01:02:41.925
Just like Michelle
loved him.

01:02:41.925 --> 01:02:43.427
That's what
she said to Barack

01:02:41.925 --> 01:02:43.427
on the stage.

01:02:43.427 --> 01:02:45.845
- Yeah, right.
- "I still love you."

01:02:45.845 --> 01:02:47.431
That's right.

01:02:47.431 --> 01:02:51.602
[indistinct
pleasant chatter]

01:02:54.438 --> 01:02:56.440
Is there a bathroom in here,
is that what this is?

01:02:57.857 --> 01:02:59.443
There's one back there,
yes, sir.

01:02:59.443 --> 01:03:01.361
That's what it is?
Yeah, okay. Thanks.

01:03:01.361 --> 01:03:03.238
Wow.

01:03:03.238 --> 01:03:05.782
Closing in,
I want to still get

01:03:03.238 --> 01:03:05.782
a lot of people in.

01:03:05.782 --> 01:03:07.284
I want to ask you something,
Mr. President,

01:03:07.284 --> 01:03:09.202
and then have the governor
just quickly--

01:03:09.202 --> 01:03:11.705
your Secretary of State,
as I'm sure you know,

01:03:11.705 --> 01:03:14.832
has said that she takes
full responsibility

01:03:14.832 --> 01:03:18.253
for the attack
on the diplomatic

01:03:14.832 --> 01:03:18.253
mission in Benghazi.

01:03:18.253 --> 01:03:20.756
The day after the attack,
Governor,

01:03:20.756 --> 01:03:24.050
I stood in the Rose Garden,

01:03:24.050 --> 01:03:26.344
and I told the American people
and the world

01:03:26.344 --> 01:03:29.013
that we were gonna find out
exactly what happened,

01:03:29.013 --> 01:03:32.100
that this
was an act of terror,

01:03:32.100 --> 01:03:34.352
and I also said
that we're gonna hunt down

01:03:34.352 --> 01:03:35.979
those who committed
this crime.

01:03:35.979 --> 01:03:37.814
And the suggestion

01:03:37.814 --> 01:03:39.483
that anybody in my team

01:03:39.483 --> 01:03:41.985
would play politics
or mislead

01:03:41.985 --> 01:03:44.279
when we've lost
four of our own, Governor,

01:03:44.279 --> 01:03:46.490
is offensive.

01:03:46.490 --> 01:03:48.074
That's not
what I do as president,

01:03:48.074 --> 01:03:51.161
that's not what I do
as commander in chief.

01:03:53.246 --> 01:03:56.124
Governor, if you want to reply,
just quickly, to this, please.

01:03:56.124 --> 01:03:58.627
I think it's interesting
the president just said

01:03:56.124 --> 01:03:58.627
something

01:03:58.627 --> 01:04:00.962
which is that,
on the day after the attack,

01:04:00.962 --> 01:04:02.422
he went in the Rose Garden

01:04:02.422 --> 01:04:04.882
and said that this was
an act of terror.

01:04:04.882 --> 01:04:06.426
That's what I said.

01:04:06.426 --> 01:04:09.137
You said in the Rose Garden
the day after the attack

01:04:09.137 --> 01:04:10.597
it was an act of terror.

01:04:12.182 --> 01:04:13.891
It was not a spontaneous
demonstration,

01:04:13.891 --> 01:04:15.185
is that what you're saying?

01:04:15.185 --> 01:04:16.645
Please proceed, Governor.

01:04:16.645 --> 01:04:19.731
I want to make sure
we get that for the record,

01:04:19.731 --> 01:04:21.566
because it took
the president 14 days

01:04:21.566 --> 01:04:24.611
before he called
the attack in Benghazi

01:04:21.566 --> 01:04:24.611
an act of terror.

01:04:24.611 --> 01:04:26.196
[Barack Obama]
Get the transcript.

01:04:26.196 --> 01:04:27.531
He did in fact, sir.

01:04:27.531 --> 01:04:29.032
So let me call it
an act of terror.

01:04:29.032 --> 01:04:30.534
Can you say that
a little louder, Candy?

01:04:30.534 --> 01:04:32.160
[spectators
laugh and applaud]

01:04:32.160 --> 01:04:34.871
He did call it
an act of terror.

01:04:34.871 --> 01:04:36.832
It did as well take--

01:04:36.832 --> 01:04:40.669
it did as well, uh,
take two weeks or so

01:04:40.669 --> 01:04:43.129
for the whole idea
of there being

01:04:40.669 --> 01:04:43.129
a riot out there

01:04:43.129 --> 01:04:44.631
about this tape to come out.

01:04:44.631 --> 01:04:46.132
You are correct about that.

01:04:46.132 --> 01:04:49.177
The administration--
the administration indicated

01:04:49.177 --> 01:04:53.264
that this was a reaction
to a video and was

01:04:49.177 --> 01:04:53.264
a spontaneous reaction.

01:04:53.264 --> 01:04:54.808
It did.

01:04:54.808 --> 01:04:57.310
It took them
a long time to say

01:04:54.808 --> 01:04:57.310
this was a terrorist act

01:04:57.310 --> 01:05:00.146
by a terrorist group,
and-- and to suggest--

01:05:00.146 --> 01:05:02.899
am I incorrect
in that regard?

01:05:02.899 --> 01:05:05.318
On Sunday, the, uh,
your Secretary--

01:05:05.318 --> 01:05:06.737
Excuse me.

01:05:06.737 --> 01:05:09.030
The ambassador
to the United Nations

01:05:09.030 --> 01:05:10.990
went on the Sunday
television shows

01:05:10.990 --> 01:05:13.159
and spoke about how
this was a spontaneous

01:05:10.990 --> 01:05:13.159
reaction...

01:05:13.159 --> 01:05:15.662
I'm happy to have
a longer conversation

01:05:13.159 --> 01:05:15.662
about foreign policy.

01:05:15.662 --> 01:05:17.372
Absolutely, but I want
to move you on...

01:05:17.372 --> 01:05:19.165
[Barack Obama]
Okay, I'm happy

01:05:17.372 --> 01:05:19.165
to do that, too.

01:05:19.165 --> 01:05:22.168
Well...
how bad was it?

01:05:22.168 --> 01:05:24.045
What do you mean?

01:05:25.589 --> 01:05:27.758
It was.
Tough format, though.

01:05:27.758 --> 01:05:28.884
It wasn't good.

01:05:28.884 --> 01:05:29.926
I thought
we did really well.

01:05:29.926 --> 01:05:32.011
That question
they got wrong--

01:05:32.011 --> 01:05:34.222
that one thing
he got wrong when he said

01:05:34.222 --> 01:05:37.851
he didn't say
in the Rose Garden--

01:05:34.222 --> 01:05:37.851
who briefed him on that?

01:05:37.851 --> 01:05:40.520
I just don't know
who briefed him on that,

01:05:37.851 --> 01:05:40.520
but someone got it wrong.

01:05:40.520 --> 01:05:43.940
[Laurie] I just kept
looking at my watch--

01:05:40.520 --> 01:05:43.940
how many more minutes?

01:05:43.940 --> 01:05:45.024
[soft laughter]

01:05:45.024 --> 01:05:47.193
It's just so painful for me.

01:05:47.193 --> 01:05:50.321
It is tough.

01:05:50.321 --> 01:05:52.657
Good job.
Really good--

01:05:50.321 --> 01:05:52.657
no, it was.

01:05:52.657 --> 01:05:55.744
He did a lot better this time.
He did really well.

01:05:55.744 --> 01:05:57.662
You also did
really well this time.

01:05:57.662 --> 01:05:59.205
It was not a win
for him at all.

01:05:59.205 --> 01:06:01.999
Well, I'll bet it's 70-30
in the polls, so--

01:06:01.999 --> 01:06:03.209
No.

01:06:03.209 --> 01:06:07.464
Yeah. Eighty-twenty?
Ninety-ten?

01:06:07.464 --> 01:06:09.299
Republicans are gonna think
you won, Democrats are

01:06:07.464 --> 01:06:09.299
gonna think he won.

01:06:09.299 --> 01:06:10.926
That's right.

01:06:10.926 --> 01:06:14.763
The CBS poll,
if you're curious,

01:06:10.926 --> 01:06:14.763
is 37% Obama won,

01:06:14.763 --> 01:06:17.432
30% you, and 33% tied.

01:06:17.432 --> 01:06:19.893
That's not bad.

01:06:19.893 --> 01:06:21.812
[Jenn] Good fight.
Sixty-three percent.

01:06:21.812 --> 01:06:24.815
Thirty-seven percent Obama,
30% Dad, 33% tied.

01:06:24.815 --> 01:06:26.524
They both
did well, then.

01:06:26.524 --> 01:06:28.067
[Craig] That's exactly
what you needed.

01:06:29.152 --> 01:06:30.862
[Laurie] Yeah, a draw.

01:06:30.862 --> 01:06:34.532
In this format,
that's really good,

01:06:30.862 --> 01:06:34.532
I think.

01:06:34.532 --> 01:06:37.118
[Craig] Yeah, that's exactly
what you needed.

01:06:37.118 --> 01:06:39.078
The other thing is, you know,
I wanted to come back

01:06:39.078 --> 01:06:41.038
and talk about him
and his China stuff.

01:06:41.038 --> 01:06:43.040
She keeps interrupting me.
"No, no, you can't

01:06:41.038 --> 01:06:43.040
talk about that."

01:06:43.040 --> 01:06:45.794
Why can't I talk about that?
He talked about that.

01:06:45.794 --> 01:06:48.797
He talks about whatever
the heck he wants to.

01:06:45.794 --> 01:06:48.797
I can't do that.

01:06:48.797 --> 01:06:51.633
[Laurie] Her excuse
was the time, but

01:06:48.797 --> 01:06:51.633
that was irrelevant.

01:06:51.633 --> 01:06:53.384
[Tagg] But he had more
time than you had.

01:06:53.384 --> 01:06:56.262
[Laurie] It didn't matter.
It mattered who got

01:06:53.384 --> 01:06:56.262
to go last.

01:06:56.262 --> 01:06:58.181
But-- but he has
this interesting point:

01:06:58.181 --> 01:07:00.558
"If Candy Crowley
thought Romney was right

01:07:00.558 --> 01:07:02.560
in the spirit
of the law, why--"

01:07:02.560 --> 01:07:04.604
which is what she said
in her walk-back--

01:07:04.604 --> 01:07:07.398
"why was she
so aggressive correcting

01:07:04.604 --> 01:07:07.398
the letter of the law?"

01:07:09.400 --> 01:07:11.319
Yeah. Good point.

01:07:11.319 --> 01:07:15.907
I asked him whether
he called the attack

01:07:11.319 --> 01:07:15.907
a terrorist attack.

01:07:15.907 --> 01:07:18.368
[Laurie] How are you wrong?
How is that a misspeaking?

01:07:18.368 --> 01:07:20.662
[Mitt] How is that--
that's both technically right

01:07:20.662 --> 01:07:22.789
and in the spirit right,
both.

01:07:24.582 --> 01:07:27.043
All of us complain
there's no food at

01:07:24.582 --> 01:07:27.043
La Guardia airport.

01:07:27.043 --> 01:07:28.879
There is so much food

01:07:28.879 --> 01:07:31.214
in that food court to the left,
you won't believe it.

01:07:31.214 --> 01:07:35.176
In the La Guardia
Delta terminal,

01:07:31.214 --> 01:07:35.176
there is no food.

01:07:35.176 --> 01:07:37.679
What are you
talking about?

01:07:35.176 --> 01:07:37.679
You're crazy.

01:07:37.679 --> 01:07:39.723
Mister--
Mr. Fly Private.

01:07:39.723 --> 01:07:41.641
Let me give you--
let me give you--

01:07:39.723 --> 01:07:41.641
give you the reason.

01:07:41.641 --> 01:07:42.934
Can you look it up
on your iPad?

01:07:42.934 --> 01:07:44.268
I'm gonna
look it up right now.

01:07:44.268 --> 01:07:46.730
Look at terminal "E"
or whatever it is.

01:07:46.730 --> 01:07:48.398
- But, uh...
- [Ann] It had a dining room?

01:07:48.398 --> 01:07:50.191
It's changed
since you were there.

01:07:50.191 --> 01:07:53.277
You're thinking
of the shuttle.

01:07:53.277 --> 01:07:56.573
The shuttle
has one area

01:07:53.277 --> 01:07:56.573
with eight gates.

01:07:56.573 --> 01:08:00.284
But then the regular
Delta has, like,

01:07:56.573 --> 01:08:00.284
twenty gates,

01:08:00.284 --> 01:08:01.995
and it's
the other direction.

01:08:01.995 --> 01:08:04.539
You go through
the same entry,

01:08:01.995 --> 01:08:04.539
same security,

01:08:04.539 --> 01:08:06.583
and you go left
to the regular Delta.

01:08:06.583 --> 01:08:08.668
They have 20 gates
and they have a huge

01:08:06.583 --> 01:08:08.668
food court.

01:08:08.668 --> 01:08:10.795
[Matt] Tagg, just give up.
You don't stand a chance.

01:08:10.795 --> 01:08:13.256
- Have you found it yet?
- He's still debating.

01:08:13.256 --> 01:08:16.217
- He's got you!
- That's right!

01:08:16.217 --> 01:08:18.011
Where was
this guy tonight?

01:08:18.011 --> 01:08:21.264
[laughter]

01:08:21.264 --> 01:08:24.434
Pretty good.

01:08:24.434 --> 01:08:26.019
Did you see it?
Could you see it, Tagg?

01:08:26.019 --> 01:08:29.188
Yep. And you were wrong.
I'll show you how I know.

01:08:29.188 --> 01:08:32.067
Yes. Look,
I'll show you.

01:08:32.067 --> 01:08:33.568
[Jenn]
I wouldn't cross him.

01:08:33.568 --> 01:08:35.904
Here's the map
of the terminal.

01:08:37.864 --> 01:08:40.700
There's the Delta
shuttle Marine Air

01:08:37.864 --> 01:08:40.700
Terminal right there.

01:08:40.700 --> 01:08:43.036
What Marine Air Terminal?

01:08:43.036 --> 01:08:44.746
That's the Delta shuttle.

01:08:44.746 --> 01:08:47.415
They moved the shuttle
terminal to this

01:08:44.746 --> 01:08:47.415
little marine--

01:08:47.415 --> 01:08:48.917
I'm talking about
it's over here--

01:08:48.917 --> 01:08:50.835
Over here
is the Delta terminal

01:08:50.835 --> 01:08:52.712
that you cannot get to
from the Delta shuttle--

01:08:52.712 --> 01:08:54.839
I'm not talking about
the Marine Air Terminal.

01:08:54.839 --> 01:08:56.257
I'm talking about over here.

01:08:56.257 --> 01:08:58.760
But this is where
the shuttle is now.

01:08:58.760 --> 01:09:00.136
If you take
the shuttle to Boston,

01:09:00.136 --> 01:09:01.846
it's out of
the Marine Air Terminal.

01:09:01.846 --> 01:09:03.264
They've moved Delta over
to the Marine air terminal?

01:09:03.264 --> 01:09:04.891
About eight years ago.

01:09:04.891 --> 01:09:06.601
[Jenn] That is true,
that is true.

01:09:06.601 --> 01:09:08.645
Who is it? Oh, it's US Air.
Is it US Air? It's US Air.

01:09:08.645 --> 01:09:10.480
- You're thinking US Air.
- The US Air.

01:09:11.439 --> 01:09:12.941
I won a debate!

01:09:12.941 --> 01:09:14.400
[laughter]

01:09:14.400 --> 01:09:15.610
[Ann] You finally!

01:09:15.610 --> 01:09:17.654
You went down!

01:09:17.654 --> 01:09:19.363
Sweet dreams.

01:09:19.363 --> 01:09:21.240
Love ya. Take care.

01:09:21.240 --> 01:09:22.450
It was a good fight.

01:09:22.450 --> 01:09:23.910
You did great.
It was--

01:09:23.910 --> 01:09:26.245
- It was a difficult debate.
- It was.

01:09:26.245 --> 01:09:27.664
That was--
that was tough.

01:09:27.664 --> 01:09:29.582
- And that threw you off.
- And it threw me off.

01:09:29.582 --> 01:09:32.168
I was like, I was like,
this is like your SAT

01:09:32.168 --> 01:09:33.670
you know when you, you know,
three questions in a row

01:09:33.670 --> 01:09:35.379
you don't know the answer to,
it's like,

01:09:35.379 --> 01:09:37.966
"Oh, no, I'm gonna flunk out.
My life is over."

01:09:37.966 --> 01:09:40.677
Nope, nope, not at all.

01:09:40.677 --> 01:09:42.470
It was awesome.
Let's go, guys.

01:09:42.470 --> 01:09:44.347
I told my dad,
I said, "Dad,

01:09:44.347 --> 01:09:47.224
think of yourself like Rocky,
and you're in the ring,

01:09:47.224 --> 01:09:48.893
and you're getting
your face beat in,

01:09:48.893 --> 01:09:50.812
but you've got to show
you can take a punch,

01:09:50.812 --> 01:09:53.023
and you gotta get up
off the mat and keep fighting,

01:09:53.023 --> 01:09:54.858
and don't go down
until this thing's over.

01:09:54.858 --> 01:09:56.317
And whether you win or not,

01:09:56.317 --> 01:09:57.610
you want to be known
as a fighter.

01:09:57.610 --> 01:09:59.529
And this thing's
far from over.

01:09:59.529 --> 01:10:01.280
[Man] Oh, my gosh,
look at this.

01:10:01.280 --> 01:10:02.824
Are you guys
watching this?

01:10:02.824 --> 01:10:05.242
- The doors opening.
- Wow, that's cool.

01:10:05.242 --> 01:10:07.078
[Mitt] Hold on, hold on.

01:10:07.078 --> 01:10:08.621
- Don't look.
- You're gonna miss it.

01:10:08.621 --> 01:10:10.165
Yeah, don't look.

01:10:10.165 --> 01:10:11.916
[indistinct happy shouts]

01:10:11.916 --> 01:10:15.962
[Crowd] Mitt! Mitt!
Mitt! Mitt! Mitt!

01:10:15.962 --> 01:10:18.381
Wow.

01:10:18.381 --> 01:10:20.550
Wow!

01:10:20.550 --> 01:10:22.177
Mitt! Mitt! Mitt! Mitt!

01:10:22.177 --> 01:10:24.846
[Mitt] It's wide open.
Maybe we should start walking.

01:10:24.846 --> 01:10:26.389
[chanting continues]

01:10:26.389 --> 01:10:32.145
[Mitt] What are you doing?

01:10:32.145 --> 01:10:34.230
[Announcer]
Ladies and gentlemen,

01:10:32.145 --> 01:10:34.230
please welcome

01:10:34.230 --> 01:10:37.692
the next president
and first lady

01:10:34.230 --> 01:10:37.692
of the United States,

01:10:37.692 --> 01:10:40.195
Governor and Mrs. Romney!

01:10:40.195 --> 01:10:41.821
[cheers and applause]

01:10:41.821 --> 01:10:44.699
[Crowd]
We want Mitt!

01:10:41.821 --> 01:10:44.699
We want Mitt!

01:10:52.790 --> 01:10:54.209
[Mitt] We have journeyed

01:10:54.209 --> 01:10:56.544
far and wide
in this campaign together,

01:10:56.544 --> 01:10:58.254
for America's future,

01:10:58.254 --> 01:11:00.090
and now we're almost there.

01:11:00.090 --> 01:11:02.717
One final push,
we'll be there.

01:11:02.717 --> 01:11:05.845
You know, it's some long days
and some short nights,

01:11:05.845 --> 01:11:08.472
and now we are very,
very close.

01:11:08.472 --> 01:11:11.851
The door to a brighter
future is there,

01:11:11.851 --> 01:11:14.145
it's open,
it's waiting for us.

01:11:14.145 --> 01:11:17.273
I need your vote,
I need your work.

01:11:17.273 --> 01:11:18.942
Walk with me.

01:11:18.942 --> 01:11:22.153
Together, tomorrow
is another day.

01:11:22.153 --> 01:11:24.488
[cheers and applause]

01:11:45.843 --> 01:11:48.972
[camera shutters clicking]

01:11:48.972 --> 01:11:52.267
[indistinct chatter]

01:11:56.187 --> 01:11:58.189
Thank you.
Good to see you again.

01:11:58.189 --> 01:11:59.899
[Woman] Governor, how are
you feeling today?

01:11:59.899 --> 01:12:01.859
- [Man] Who did you vote for?
- [Mitt] Very good, very good.

01:12:01.859 --> 01:12:03.653
- [Man] Who did you vote for?
- [Mitt] I think you know.

01:12:03.653 --> 01:12:05.571
- [Woman] Good luck.
- Thank you.

01:12:05.571 --> 01:12:07.865
Thanks much.
Bye-bye, guys.

01:12:07.865 --> 01:12:09.159
- Good morning.
- Hey, guys.

01:12:09.159 --> 01:12:11.161
Good luck to you,
sir.

01:12:11.161 --> 01:12:15.999
[indistinct
pleasant chatter]

01:12:15.999 --> 01:12:17.834
Who did you vote for?
Did you vote?

01:12:17.834 --> 01:12:20.503
[chuckling]

01:12:24.132 --> 01:12:25.591
Oh, my goodness.

01:12:25.591 --> 01:12:27.218
There are a lot
of people out there.

01:12:27.218 --> 01:12:28.511
Yeah, yeah.

01:12:28.511 --> 01:12:30.138
Yeah, there are
a lot of people.

01:12:30.138 --> 01:12:32.307
I mean, usually
it's empty in here,

01:12:30.138 --> 01:12:32.307
as you know.

01:12:32.307 --> 01:12:34.058
We come in,
there's nobody here.

01:12:34.058 --> 01:12:36.393
There's a big line
down the street.

01:12:36.393 --> 01:12:38.521
So people are
turning out to vote.

01:12:38.521 --> 01:12:42.108
I talked to a radio host
in Cleveland.

01:12:42.108 --> 01:12:45.611
He said the suburban
voting places have

01:12:42.108 --> 01:12:45.611
long lines,

01:12:45.611 --> 01:12:47.655
much, much longer,
he said, than when, um,

01:12:47.655 --> 01:12:50.658
John McCain
ran four years ago.

01:12:52.118 --> 01:12:53.661
Yeah.

01:12:55.330 --> 01:12:56.706
Interesting.

01:12:56.706 --> 01:12:58.708
[camera shutters clicking]

01:12:58.708 --> 01:13:01.085
See you guys.
See you, buddy. Love you.

01:13:01.085 --> 01:13:04.005
Take care. Allie, bye-bye.

01:13:04.005 --> 01:13:05.256
See you tonight.

01:13:05.256 --> 01:13:07.591
Jennifer. Wanna come
with me to Cleveland?

01:13:07.591 --> 01:13:10.887
[indistinct remarks]

01:13:10.887 --> 01:13:13.097
I'm leaving right now.
See you guys.

01:13:13.097 --> 01:13:15.350
It's Morning Edition
from NPR news. I'm

01:13:13.097 --> 01:13:15.350
Steve Inskeep.

01:13:15.350 --> 01:13:16.976
And I'm Renée Montagne.

01:13:16.976 --> 01:13:18.978
This is a day that many
Americans will spend

01:13:18.978 --> 01:13:21.356
staring at maps
of the United States.

01:13:21.356 --> 01:13:23.233
Some who are not
staring already have

01:13:23.233 --> 01:13:24.775
the electoral map
in their heads

01:13:24.775 --> 01:13:26.819
as they calculate ways
that President Obama

01:13:26.819 --> 01:13:30.073
or Mitt Romney can win
270 electoral votes.

01:13:30.073 --> 01:13:32.867
In order to win,
President Obama would

01:13:30.073 --> 01:13:32.867
need to hang on

01:13:32.867 --> 01:13:35.286
to painfully close leads
in several states.

01:13:35.286 --> 01:13:37.788
Mitt Romney needs to win
the states he leads narrowly

01:13:37.788 --> 01:13:40.791
and also capture a few states
where the President leads.

01:13:40.791 --> 01:13:46.630
[indistinct conversations]

01:13:46.630 --> 01:13:49.092
Tonight I want to speak
about what lies ahead,

01:13:49.092 --> 01:13:50.927
about the tomorrow
we can build together.

01:13:50.927 --> 01:13:54.013
That freedom, so integral
to the American experience,

01:13:54.013 --> 01:13:57.016
will again propel us forward
to new heights of discovery,

01:13:57.016 --> 01:13:59.227
to new horizons
of opportunity,

01:13:59.227 --> 01:14:02.188
and to new dimensions
of prosperity.

01:14:02.188 --> 01:14:04.899
We're-- anyway,
you get the idea,

01:14:02.188 --> 01:14:04.899
you get the idea.

01:14:06.734 --> 01:14:08.611
[Man] Yeah! Yeah!

01:14:08.611 --> 01:14:11.447
What's going on,
you guys? Huh?

01:14:11.447 --> 01:14:13.324
What up?

01:14:13.324 --> 01:14:15.743
[laughter]

01:14:15.743 --> 01:14:17.203
[Paul Ryan]
Good to see you.

01:14:17.203 --> 01:14:18.913
Hey, buddy.
How are you doing?

01:14:18.913 --> 01:14:20.039
- Good.
- Doing good.

01:14:20.039 --> 01:14:21.249
We're doing well too.

01:14:21.249 --> 01:14:23.334
It's all good.
Boy, these crowds.

01:14:23.334 --> 01:14:25.378
You're coming here.
Joe Biden...

01:14:25.378 --> 01:14:27.880
We just saw his plane.
Yeah, he was just leaving.

01:14:27.880 --> 01:14:30.341
They were talking
about how we're

01:14:27.880 --> 01:14:30.341
desperate, you know,

01:14:30.341 --> 01:14:32.260
we're desperate,
we're going out

01:14:30.341 --> 01:14:32.260
on election day.

01:14:32.260 --> 01:14:33.594
Funny thing.

01:14:33.594 --> 01:14:35.763
Funny thing, he's in
Cleveland too. Strange.

01:14:35.763 --> 01:14:38.975
[indistinct chatter]

01:14:38.975 --> 01:14:41.436
Janna reminds me of that
every time.

01:14:41.436 --> 01:14:43.813
She does.
She's like... yeah.

01:14:43.813 --> 01:14:45.440
How was the voting?

01:14:45.440 --> 01:14:49.235
It was, um, it was different,
than my usual voting.

01:14:49.235 --> 01:14:52.280
[laughter and happy chatter]

01:15:04.459 --> 01:15:06.877
Well.

01:15:06.877 --> 01:15:08.463
Welcome to Pittsburgh.

01:15:08.463 --> 01:15:10.298
This is our
last campaign stop.

01:15:10.298 --> 01:15:11.799
[Man] It's our
last campaign stop.

01:15:11.799 --> 01:15:13.634
[Man #2]
Well, we'll see.

01:15:13.634 --> 01:15:15.345
[Man] There's probably
a Chipotle around.

01:15:15.345 --> 01:15:18.722
This is our la-- [laughs]
This is our last--

01:15:18.722 --> 01:15:21.558
I was suggesting to Ken
we do an OTR at a bar

01:15:18.722 --> 01:15:21.558
on the way back.

01:15:21.558 --> 01:15:23.686
[Mitt] Guys, look
at the parking garage.

01:15:25.438 --> 01:15:27.190
Look at the parking garage.

01:15:27.190 --> 01:15:28.399
Wow.

01:15:28.399 --> 01:15:29.733
Oh, my God.

01:15:29.733 --> 01:15:33.237
[cheering and shouting]

01:15:46.834 --> 01:15:48.878
Look at this in here!
Wow!

01:15:48.878 --> 01:15:52.923
[cheers and applause]

01:15:52.923 --> 01:15:55.092
[Woman] Great to see you.

01:15:55.092 --> 01:15:56.677
Thanks for your work.

01:15:56.677 --> 01:15:59.596
Gosh, you guys are fabulous.
Thank you so much.

01:15:59.596 --> 01:16:03.518
[cheers and applause]

01:16:03.518 --> 01:16:05.102
Hey, you guys, how are you.

01:16:05.102 --> 01:16:06.687
Thank you for fighting
for my dad's business.

01:16:06.687 --> 01:16:08.856
Thanks so much,
thank you.

01:16:08.856 --> 01:16:10.691
Hi. How are you?

01:16:10.691 --> 01:16:13.069
- Good to see you guys.
- [Woman] Yeah, hold on.

01:16:13.069 --> 01:16:15.946
Judy, hold on,
he wants to talk to you.

01:16:15.946 --> 01:16:17.948
Hold on.
That's my supervisor.

01:16:17.948 --> 01:16:20.243
Hey, Judy, this is
Mitt Romney. How are you?

01:16:21.785 --> 01:16:22.953
Oh, wow.

01:16:26.874 --> 01:16:28.876
He look bigger in person.

01:16:28.876 --> 01:16:30.253
Hey, guys.
How you doing?

01:16:30.253 --> 01:16:31.879
- Good, how are you?
- Good to see you.

01:16:31.879 --> 01:16:33.672
- How you guys doing?
- Wonderful, how are you?

01:16:33.672 --> 01:16:36.092
- I'm doing good, thanks.
- Blowin' leaves.

01:16:36.092 --> 01:16:38.302
You're blowing leaves
today?

01:16:38.302 --> 01:16:39.887
The sunshine
is good in Ohio.

01:16:39.887 --> 01:16:41.638
It's a good day
when it's sun-shining.

01:16:41.638 --> 01:16:44.183
I love the leaves when
it's sun-shining outdoors.

01:16:44.183 --> 01:16:45.560
When I was a boy
we used to burn the leaves.

01:16:45.560 --> 01:16:47.395
They don't do that anymore,
of course.

01:16:47.395 --> 01:16:49.021
But we used to put them
in front of the street,

01:16:47.395 --> 01:16:49.021
you know,

01:16:49.021 --> 01:16:50.898
and burn them,
and they'd smoke.

01:16:50.898 --> 01:16:53.359
I love the smell.
How you doing?

01:16:50.898 --> 01:16:53.359
This your son?

01:16:53.359 --> 01:16:55.694
[Mitt] Can you hold that
for me, for the car?

01:16:59.240 --> 01:17:02.410
Mitt and I want to thank you
from the bottom of our hearts

01:17:02.410 --> 01:17:04.620
for this great effort,

01:17:04.620 --> 01:17:06.372
and I just want
to introduce to you,

01:17:06.372 --> 01:17:08.165
because of
your hard work,

01:17:08.165 --> 01:17:10.501
the next President
of the United States,

01:17:08.165 --> 01:17:10.501
Mitt Romney.

01:17:10.501 --> 01:17:15.423
[cheers and applause]

01:17:19.676 --> 01:17:22.472
[no audio]

01:17:30.438 --> 01:17:33.274
[no audio]

01:17:52.335 --> 01:17:54.753
You know I always slept well
before an election.

01:17:54.753 --> 01:17:57.298
That's because I knew
I'd given everything,

01:17:57.298 --> 01:17:59.425
so I didn't worry,
I did everything I could,

01:17:59.425 --> 01:18:01.218
and after that
it's out of my hands.

01:18:01.218 --> 01:18:03.304
That's what I feel.
Left it all on the field.

01:18:07.057 --> 01:18:09.685
[Mitt]
Traffic is unbelievable.

01:18:09.685 --> 01:18:12.104
Is it real--
Can-- can you see it?

01:18:12.104 --> 01:18:14.315
- You see it out there?
- Oh, my goodness!

01:18:16.609 --> 01:18:18.653
And it just goes
on and on and on.

01:18:16.609 --> 01:18:18.653
Way down there.

01:18:18.653 --> 01:18:20.070
They've shut down the roads.

01:18:20.070 --> 01:18:21.322
- Why?
- At five.

01:18:21.322 --> 01:18:22.865
Why?

01:18:26.619 --> 01:18:28.579
[Man] Secret Service
has everything shut down

01:18:28.579 --> 01:18:30.747
as if you're the president
of the United States.

01:18:33.543 --> 01:18:35.378
Queen for a day.

01:18:37.630 --> 01:18:42.051
[Announcer]
ABC News live coverage

01:18:37.630 --> 01:18:42.051
of Election Night 2012.

01:18:42.051 --> 01:18:43.969
No surprises yet
in the presidential race.

01:18:43.969 --> 01:18:46.013
The big battleground states
are still out.

01:18:46.013 --> 01:18:48.641
We are here
with our entire team

01:18:46.013 --> 01:18:48.641
of experts and analysts.

01:18:48.641 --> 01:18:50.643
We have our reporters out
in the battleground states.

01:18:50.643 --> 01:18:53.937
The two of you
have been there

01:18:50.643 --> 01:18:53.937
at this very moment.

01:18:53.937 --> 01:18:57.274
What's going on upstairs
where the candidates are?

01:18:57.274 --> 01:18:59.610
What are they saying
to each other at this moment?

01:18:59.610 --> 01:19:02.655
I feel like I need to lay
down on the ground

01:18:59.610 --> 01:19:02.655
and throw up.

01:19:02.655 --> 01:19:04.198
Get him some ice water.

01:19:04.198 --> 01:19:06.158
How is everyone so calm?

01:19:06.158 --> 01:19:08.952
Oh, my gosh.
I'm just dying.

01:19:08.952 --> 01:19:10.871
It's finally hitting me.

01:19:12.248 --> 01:19:14.291
- Get the panic out.
- Panicsville.

01:19:14.291 --> 01:19:16.460
[Craig] I really
want to go slap him

01:19:14.291 --> 01:19:16.460
in the face right now.

01:19:16.460 --> 01:19:18.795
Slap me, hard as you can.
Go for it.

01:19:18.795 --> 01:19:20.964
Lay it on me.
Go for it.

01:19:22.633 --> 01:19:24.218
I need one
on the other side.

01:19:24.218 --> 01:19:26.220
Match it up.
Match it up.

01:19:26.220 --> 01:19:29.056
[laughter]

01:19:29.056 --> 01:19:30.391
That's pretty good.

01:19:30.391 --> 01:19:32.268
[laughter subsides]

01:19:32.268 --> 01:19:34.729
Funny. Right now
CNN has you,

01:19:34.729 --> 01:19:37.398
you're up by 500 votes.

01:19:38.608 --> 01:19:40.443
- [Craig] Where?
- That's not good.

01:19:40.443 --> 01:19:42.152
- [Ben] Florida.
- That's not good.

01:19:42.152 --> 01:19:45.573
A squeaker in Florida,
Ohio, there's just no way.

01:19:45.573 --> 01:19:46.865
[Ann] I know.

01:19:46.865 --> 01:19:49.243
It was up, like, six points,

01:19:49.243 --> 01:19:51.954
and we were hoping for
Pennsylvania or Michigan.

01:19:51.954 --> 01:19:55.165
- I mean, you know, hoping.
- Yeah. Both called.

01:19:55.165 --> 01:19:57.209
I wonder what
the story is in Wisconsin.

01:19:57.209 --> 01:19:58.877
Oh, that's probably
gone too.

01:19:58.877 --> 01:20:01.422
[Chloe] Did you know you know
that you lost Wisconsin?

01:20:01.422 --> 01:20:03.090
Chloe, we're not coming in
with updates.

01:20:03.090 --> 01:20:05.134
There we go. There we go.

01:20:05.134 --> 01:20:06.761
Okay.

01:20:06.761 --> 01:20:08.721
Did that
just get reported?

01:20:08.721 --> 01:20:10.514
It's okay. You can
give us updates.

01:20:10.514 --> 01:20:12.683
I want to know
the states that

01:20:10.514 --> 01:20:12.683
we win and lose.

01:20:15.018 --> 01:20:18.147
Right?

01:20:18.147 --> 01:20:20.190
Nope. Chloe.
No updates.

01:20:20.190 --> 01:20:21.734
Don't.

01:20:22.777 --> 01:20:24.111
Mmm.

01:20:30.534 --> 01:20:33.162
Look at this trash here.
Whose stuff is this,

01:20:30.534 --> 01:20:33.162
do you know?

01:20:33.162 --> 01:20:34.455
Some of those are mine.

01:20:34.455 --> 01:20:36.791
So far George Allen
is up two percent.

01:20:36.791 --> 01:20:39.251
Ninety-six percent in.

01:20:39.251 --> 01:20:41.295
Oh, that's good to hear.

01:20:41.295 --> 01:20:43.589
That's amazing,
is what that is.

01:20:46.759 --> 01:20:48.719
That's really amazing.

01:20:51.639 --> 01:20:53.766
- [Ann] You get 'em to sleep?
- [Jenn] They're asleep.

01:20:53.766 --> 01:20:55.434
[Ann] Wow, good job.

01:20:55.434 --> 01:20:56.644
[Tagg] Wow. Amazing.

01:20:56.644 --> 01:20:58.771
Wow.

01:20:58.771 --> 01:21:01.231
Wow, that's too bad.
Boy, all those states, huh?

01:21:01.231 --> 01:21:04.318
Wisconsin, Michigan,
Nevada.

01:21:04.318 --> 01:21:07.446
Well, so the--
our only hope is Ohio.

01:21:07.446 --> 01:21:09.782
Right? Yeah.

01:21:09.782 --> 01:21:12.535
We're hanging
our hat on one state.

01:21:12.535 --> 01:21:14.203
All right, bye.

01:21:18.957 --> 01:21:20.668
Yeah. Yep.

01:21:20.668 --> 01:21:23.420
[Josh] I just
can't believe you're

01:21:20.668 --> 01:21:23.420
going to lose.

01:21:23.420 --> 01:21:26.256
Doesn't it make--
it makes your life

01:21:23.420 --> 01:21:26.256
a lot better, doesn't it?

01:21:26.256 --> 01:21:28.925
Yeah, but still
I just don't believe

01:21:26.256 --> 01:21:28.925
it's possible

01:21:28.925 --> 01:21:30.594
that you can lose.

01:21:31.928 --> 01:21:33.556
It doesn't change
your life, does it?

01:21:33.556 --> 01:21:34.890
Ben?

01:21:34.890 --> 01:21:36.726
Hmm? No.

01:21:36.726 --> 01:21:39.520
The pathway still is,
you know, Florida and,

01:21:36.726 --> 01:21:39.520
uh, Virginia,

01:21:39.520 --> 01:21:41.230
which is really close.

01:21:41.230 --> 01:21:44.191
And Ohio, which they're
still feeling good about,

01:21:44.191 --> 01:21:47.110
'cause it's still
just absentee ballots

01:21:44.191 --> 01:21:47.110
right now.

01:21:47.110 --> 01:21:50.865
And then we've got
to pick off Colorado or Iowa

01:21:50.865 --> 01:21:52.533
or New Hampshire or Nevada.

01:21:52.533 --> 01:21:53.826
[Mitt] It comes
down to Ohio, folks.

01:21:53.826 --> 01:21:55.828
[Garrett]
It does, it does.

01:21:58.664 --> 01:22:00.499
[Ben] Ohio.

01:22:04.127 --> 01:22:06.338
You know, we talked
to Senator Portman.

01:22:06.338 --> 01:22:09.174
He thinks that we're going
to have a margin

01:22:09.174 --> 01:22:11.761
that we can't
catch up to in Ohio.

01:22:11.761 --> 01:22:14.221
We might come up
just short there.

01:22:14.221 --> 01:22:17.725
And so,
we don't want you to

01:22:17.725 --> 01:22:20.770
look like some--
you know, John Kerry...

01:22:20.770 --> 01:22:22.104
[Mitt]
Hangin' on, you mean?

01:22:22.104 --> 01:22:23.773
Hangin' on.
Like Newt Gingrich.

01:22:23.773 --> 01:22:25.148
[Mitt] Yeah.

01:22:25.148 --> 01:22:27.401
We just want to do it
right, for you and--

01:22:27.401 --> 01:22:29.069
Ed talked to Karl.

01:22:29.069 --> 01:22:31.655
Karl is the last of the guys
out there fighting,

01:22:31.655 --> 01:22:35.075
and Karl knows now that
the numbers aren't there,

01:22:35.075 --> 01:22:38.203
and he's going
to speak now and...

01:22:38.203 --> 01:22:40.205
He's gonna make clear
on FOX News that,

01:22:40.205 --> 01:22:43.083
the Ohio numbers,
we can't catch up

01:22:40.205 --> 01:22:43.083
with what's coming in.

01:22:43.083 --> 01:22:45.001
Okay.

01:22:45.001 --> 01:22:46.462
So what do you say?

01:22:46.462 --> 01:22:49.172
What do you think you say
in a concession speech?

01:22:54.094 --> 01:22:56.931
Let me read you
what I have here

01:22:54.094 --> 01:22:56.931
and see what you think.

01:22:56.931 --> 01:22:58.933
I've just called
President Obama

01:22:58.933 --> 01:23:00.726
to congratulate him
on his victory.

01:23:00.726 --> 01:23:03.395
His supporters
and his campaign also

01:23:00.726 --> 01:23:03.395
deserve congratulations.

01:23:03.395 --> 01:23:04.939
I wish all of them well,
particularly

01:23:04.939 --> 01:23:06.732
the president
and the first lady

01:23:04.939 --> 01:23:06.732
and their daughters.

01:23:06.732 --> 01:23:08.734
This is a time of great
challenges for America

01:23:08.734 --> 01:23:11.069
and I pray
that the President

01:23:08.734 --> 01:23:11.069
will be successful

01:23:11.069 --> 01:23:13.906
in guiding the nation.

01:23:13.906 --> 01:23:15.449
No one's listening.

01:23:15.449 --> 01:23:17.743
I was following.
I was following you.

01:23:17.743 --> 01:23:19.328
Shall I send you this?

01:23:19.328 --> 01:23:22.038
Do you want me
to send it to you?

01:23:19.328 --> 01:23:22.038
Shall I do that?

01:23:22.038 --> 01:23:24.207
- Then we can--
- What's going on?

01:23:24.207 --> 01:23:26.335
We're writing
a concession speech.

01:23:27.503 --> 01:23:29.505
- It's finished?
- Yeah.

01:23:29.505 --> 01:23:32.215
[Craig] Can you be
gracious and still say

01:23:29.505 --> 01:23:32.215
what you think?

01:23:32.215 --> 01:23:34.217
I hope so, but...

01:23:34.217 --> 01:23:37.471
Because I don't--
What's--? I mean...

01:23:37.471 --> 01:23:40.557
I don't know the story.
Obviously you don't want

01:23:37.471 --> 01:23:40.557
him to look like a jerk,

01:23:40.557 --> 01:23:42.142
but he's in this race

01:23:42.142 --> 01:23:44.019
because he's passionate
about what he believes in.

01:23:44.019 --> 01:23:46.229
Why not say,
"This is what I believe"?

01:23:46.229 --> 01:23:47.815
No one thinks
he just spent two years

01:23:47.815 --> 01:23:49.692
because he doesn't
believe in it.

01:23:49.692 --> 01:23:53.153
And there's tomorrow
and there's the next

01:23:49.692 --> 01:23:53.153
day and there's--

01:23:53.153 --> 01:23:55.781
But what? For what?

01:23:55.781 --> 01:23:58.367
To go out
and make the case.

01:23:58.367 --> 01:23:59.827
I mean--

01:23:59.827 --> 01:24:01.578
He's not going to run
for anything again.

01:24:01.578 --> 01:24:02.872
[Mitt] That's for sure.

01:24:02.872 --> 01:24:04.164
To make the case.

01:24:04.164 --> 01:24:06.249
[Mitt] How would I make
the case? Where?

01:24:08.711 --> 01:24:10.963
My time on the stage
is over, guys.

01:24:10.963 --> 01:24:12.798
I mean, I'm happy
for the time I had there,

01:24:12.798 --> 01:24:14.508
but my time is over.

01:24:14.508 --> 01:24:15.885
I think you're under--

01:24:15.885 --> 01:24:18.804
How-- but to do what?
We're done.

01:24:18.804 --> 01:24:21.431
I think there's almost
a pastoral role you're playing

01:24:21.431 --> 01:24:23.559
in the political world,

01:24:23.559 --> 01:24:26.854
and... the...

01:24:26.854 --> 01:24:29.439
and part of
what you're playing,

01:24:26.854 --> 01:24:29.439
I think...

01:24:31.274 --> 01:24:32.985
...is soothing people.

01:24:32.985 --> 01:24:34.695
I... yeah. Okay.

01:24:34.695 --> 01:24:37.322
That's-- I don't think
this is a time for soothing

01:24:37.322 --> 01:24:39.033
and "everything's fine."

01:24:39.033 --> 01:24:41.702
I think this is a time for,
"This is really serious, guys.

01:24:41.702 --> 01:24:43.370
This is really serious."

01:24:43.370 --> 01:24:48.124
To get up and soothe
is not-- is not my inclination.

01:24:48.124 --> 01:24:51.545
I cannot believe that he's
an aberration in the country.

01:24:51.545 --> 01:24:55.173
I believe we're
following the same path

01:24:51.545 --> 01:24:55.173
of every other great nation,

01:24:55.173 --> 01:24:57.676
which is we're following
greater government,

01:24:57.676 --> 01:25:01.388
money,
tax the rich people,

01:25:01.388 --> 01:25:03.473
promise more stuff
to everybody,

01:25:03.473 --> 01:25:06.309
borrow until
you go over a cliff.

01:25:06.309 --> 01:25:08.395
And that's-- and that's--
and I think--

01:25:08.395 --> 01:25:11.065
I think we have
a very high risk of

01:25:08.395 --> 01:25:11.065
reaching that tipping point

01:25:11.065 --> 01:25:12.524
sometime
in the next five years.

01:25:12.524 --> 01:25:14.568
I'm just-- I'm just--

01:25:14.568 --> 01:25:16.695
And the idea of
saying, "Hey, It's fine,

01:25:14.568 --> 01:25:16.695
don't worry about it."

01:25:16.695 --> 01:25:18.280
No, it's really not.

01:25:18.280 --> 01:25:21.157
This election is over,
but our principles endure.

01:25:21.157 --> 01:25:23.660
I believe the principles
upon which this nation

01:25:21.157 --> 01:25:23.660
was founded

01:25:23.660 --> 01:25:25.955
are the only sure guide
to a resurgent economy

01:25:25.955 --> 01:25:27.623
and to renewed greatness.

01:25:27.623 --> 01:25:29.959
Ann and I join with you
to earnestly pray for him

01:25:29.959 --> 01:25:32.836
and for this great nation.

01:25:32.836 --> 01:25:35.547
We're 593 words,
so that's about six minutes.

01:25:35.547 --> 01:25:36.757
Probably be
a lot of applause.

01:25:36.757 --> 01:25:38.842
How long
are you aiming for?

01:25:38.842 --> 01:25:41.136
That's fine.
I think that's fine.

01:25:38.842 --> 01:25:41.136
Don't you think that's fine?

01:25:42.429 --> 01:25:43.889
Hey.

01:25:43.889 --> 01:25:45.390
Hey, Matt.

01:25:46.266 --> 01:25:48.811
Don't do it yet? Okay.

01:25:48.811 --> 01:25:51.480
All right,
how long do you think?

01:25:54.357 --> 01:25:57.069
Okay. All right,
we'll hold tight.

01:25:59.404 --> 01:26:01.615
Rhoades says
don't do it yet.

01:26:01.615 --> 01:26:03.575
"Don't do it" meaning
"don't call Obama yet"?

01:26:03.575 --> 01:26:05.577
- Don't call the president yet.
- Why?

01:26:05.577 --> 01:26:07.830
They all just called
and said don't call

01:26:05.577 --> 01:26:07.830
the president yet.

01:26:07.830 --> 01:26:09.957
- Why?
- I don't know.

01:26:09.957 --> 01:26:12.084
It's not over yet.

01:26:12.084 --> 01:26:13.585
Premature.

01:26:14.503 --> 01:26:16.463
Why,
if we lost Ohio?

01:26:16.463 --> 01:26:20.634
Well, he's saying we--
there's a chance we'll

01:26:16.463 --> 01:26:20.634
still win Ohio.

01:26:20.634 --> 01:26:22.344
This is not what
they're reporting in Ohio.

01:26:22.344 --> 01:26:24.346
Doesn't sound like there's
a very good chance,

01:26:24.346 --> 01:26:25.848
and that's the issue for me.

01:26:25.848 --> 01:26:28.767
Tell them to wait. Karl Rove
is redoing the Ohio map.

01:26:30.602 --> 01:26:33.438
You're, uh, you're up
in the popular vote,

01:26:30.602 --> 01:26:33.438
by the way.

01:26:33.438 --> 01:26:36.108
Mmm.

01:26:36.108 --> 01:26:39.194
Yeah, we haven't gotten
California yet.

01:26:39.194 --> 01:26:42.197
Well, even reporters
like Ben Smith

01:26:42.197 --> 01:26:44.158
and people are
saying it's crazy

01:26:44.158 --> 01:26:46.409
for Romney
to rush to concede.

01:26:50.288 --> 01:26:53.208
- Prolong the agony.
- Prolong the agony.

01:26:53.208 --> 01:26:54.668
Did you call it?

01:26:56.086 --> 01:26:59.131
- It's 12:04.
- What about Colorado?

01:26:59.131 --> 01:27:01.967
We're down four points
in Colorado.

01:27:01.967 --> 01:27:04.136
[Mitt] Four points?

01:27:04.136 --> 01:27:05.971
I think it's time.

01:27:08.974 --> 01:27:11.226
[Mitt] May I use
the house phone?

01:27:12.268 --> 01:27:13.896
It's okay, honey,
it's okay.

01:27:13.896 --> 01:27:15.355
[Mitt] Garrett?

01:27:16.272 --> 01:27:17.524
He was just
in the hallway.

01:27:17.524 --> 01:27:19.193
I was just going
to tell you,

01:27:19.193 --> 01:27:22.320
you know, my-- my own view
of the Secret Service is,

01:27:22.320 --> 01:27:23.780
I want to get
a ride home tomorrow

01:27:23.780 --> 01:27:25.782
'cause I don't have
a car to get there,

01:27:25.782 --> 01:27:29.036
but then pull up stakes.

01:27:29.036 --> 01:27:32.122
I have no interest in
having them stay around

01:27:29.036 --> 01:27:32.122
for any more time.

01:27:32.122 --> 01:27:35.417
Yeah. You know,
I think you should go

01:27:32.122 --> 01:27:35.417
with what they suggest

01:27:35.417 --> 01:27:38.128
in terms...
they'll pare it back.

01:27:38.128 --> 01:27:42.091
The idea of them driving me
one mile once I'm home--

01:27:42.091 --> 01:27:45.427
I... it's like,
I will feel ridiculous.

01:27:51.141 --> 01:27:52.893
[Garrett] We need to hold
for just a second.

01:27:52.893 --> 01:27:54.310
[Mitt] Okay. We'll hang on.

01:27:54.310 --> 01:27:56.438
Then we'll start...
calling out...

01:28:00.609 --> 01:28:02.611
[Man] Um, it's been
an amazing honor

01:28:02.611 --> 01:28:07.074
uh, that-- to work
with someone like the Guv,

01:28:07.074 --> 01:28:08.742
of such high character.

01:28:08.742 --> 01:28:13.622
Um, he's a true, you know,
he's a role model to me.

01:28:14.957 --> 01:28:17.417
You know,
it goes without saying

01:28:17.417 --> 01:28:21.130
I'd rather lose with this guy
than win with anybody else.

01:28:21.130 --> 01:28:23.757
It's a real honor.
Governor Mitt Romney.

01:28:32.348 --> 01:28:34.434
I won't quote him
by name. He's here,

01:28:34.434 --> 01:28:37.146
but he said to me, he said,
"You know, Mitt," he said,

01:28:37.146 --> 01:28:39.731
in some ways we
kind of had to steal

01:28:37.146 --> 01:28:39.731
the Republican nomination

01:28:39.731 --> 01:28:43.777
because our party is Southern,
evangelical and populist.

01:28:43.777 --> 01:28:45.946
And you're--
and you're Northern,

01:28:45.946 --> 01:28:48.073
and you're Mormon
and you're rich.

01:28:48.073 --> 01:28:50.408
- And these things...
- [laughter]

01:28:50.408 --> 01:28:53.120
...these do not match
well with our party.

01:28:53.120 --> 01:28:55.455
Let me just note a couple
of other things,

01:28:55.455 --> 01:28:57.040
and that is, um,

01:28:57.040 --> 01:28:59.501
I have long since
learned that the,

01:28:59.501 --> 01:29:02.045
uh, greatest source of, um,

01:29:02.045 --> 01:29:04.214
of true wealth in life

01:29:04.214 --> 01:29:07.092
is the associations
you have with other

01:29:04.214 --> 01:29:07.092
human beings.

01:29:07.092 --> 01:29:08.635
Uh, most importantly

01:29:08.635 --> 01:29:10.679
the person you
fall in love with,

01:29:10.679 --> 01:29:12.430
your family, uh,

01:29:12.430 --> 01:29:14.390
but also the people
you work with

01:29:14.390 --> 01:29:16.143
and that
become your friends.

01:29:16.143 --> 01:29:19.021
We want you to have
a glorious life.

01:29:19.021 --> 01:29:21.106
We want you to be
successful

01:29:21.106 --> 01:29:23.441
in whatever
you choose to do.

01:29:23.441 --> 01:29:26.444
And we want you to be
effective in helping

01:29:26.444 --> 01:29:28.738
pass along a nation which is

01:29:28.738 --> 01:29:30.949
more free and more prosperous
than we found it.

01:29:34.911 --> 01:29:36.997
[Mitt] He has
to leave at five.

01:29:42.085 --> 01:29:44.296
It's funny, it is
like at a funeral,

01:29:44.296 --> 01:29:46.131
which is that
the family, you know,

01:29:46.131 --> 01:29:48.050
you've gone
through your mourning,

01:29:48.050 --> 01:29:50.010
and you stand there
and shake hands with other

01:29:48.050 --> 01:29:50.010
people coming through,

01:29:50.010 --> 01:29:52.470
and when they see you,
they weep, they break down,

01:29:52.470 --> 01:29:54.848
because they haven't,
you know...

01:29:54.848 --> 01:29:57.059
- [Ann] They haven't mourned.
- They haven't mourned yet.

01:29:57.059 --> 01:29:59.353
And as the family,
it's like,

01:29:59.353 --> 01:30:01.355
"Yeah, I can't
mourn any more."

01:30:01.355 --> 01:30:03.690
[Ann] Boo-hoo!

01:30:03.690 --> 01:30:06.151
- That's enough!
- [laughter]

01:30:06.151 --> 01:30:08.195
Sir, it was my pleasure.
Absolutely, it was.

01:30:08.195 --> 01:30:09.738
Thank you. Thanks
for taking care of her.

01:30:09.738 --> 01:30:11.865
I worried about her,
but with you guys around...

01:30:11.865 --> 01:30:13.616
No problems.

01:30:13.616 --> 01:30:15.035
You've got
a sense of normalcy.

01:30:15.035 --> 01:30:16.578
- We do.
- Yeah, yeah, that's true.

01:30:16.578 --> 01:30:18.080
Well, we enjoyed
every minute of it.

01:30:18.080 --> 01:30:20.374
- It was an honor.
- God bless. Thanks, guys.

01:30:20.374 --> 01:30:22.167
- Bye-bye.
- Take care.
