Good morning Tuesday morning it's not cyber shot WRK a high you don't line. -- you don't. We got a busy showed today was great having Major Garrett in the last hour. Good session there with a Steve sorry this whole medical thing is driving me crazy they're gonna they are going to destroy. The beautiful thing that's been built here -- -- teaching hospitals all by starving them money it's gonna be -- and you're gonna have bureaucrats making decisions for businesses it's -- the worst case scenario messing with markets that's my opinion joining us out Joseph -- fell from the Boston Herald. He's here every week and he's brought to us by the car guys carbine made easy Joseph good morning to you sir. I'm doing on some Mitt Romney is a ghost Israel. He says something perfectly innocent and the media is into this gas story line -- making gaffe yesterday did. Well I think the eagle on the air he hopes and Great Britain England and insult the Palestinians aren't gonna let it. -- -- Well yeah first of all great. Great great there was a rather innocent thing he said no actually gave good analysis and in retrospect. Now that we see the mess they've made of the game's in great Pereira -- can't -- people and -- against. I like it -- his business analysis is right on target. Yeah and that had a minor over the Palestinian tango Romney was basically forty from a year has study rather from a report. Recently the -- I mentioned the culture. Being. Having an impact this -- United Nations or I have no you know UN -- sorry that it does David have -- the culture has. But it act on Israel accepts in nineteen one of the reasons why Palestinians because their treatment of women men and a bunch of things. Have not take enough. Nevertheless even though it's valid. You could make an argument that it's not good diplomacy. If you're right there are two be performing to show people kind of leader he would be. It and it's possible it's not good strategy to be pissing off the Palestinians but I think campaign did this on purpose when you're the headline like this one in the globe today. Romney provokes Palestinian outrage that sounds like a big campaign victory to me. Well I'll end -- but it seemed like. Is the Israelis -- and a number of Jewish leaders back here were very happy. Which Romney's trip -- not really hurt you at the ballot box I think. So it may have been intemperate what are you gotta kind of split thank. Most weight compared well. He caused the -- company waves sport trip that he wasn't really any I don't think. But at the same crime doesn't look matter any election no. No impact on voters he's not a big like you've. Like -- got a big ride you know the media because it's like -- convert any little gas. The highlight on Romney took because of course when Obama go to Europe it's not been -- -- you lace shirt and though you degrade our itself I think it'll. I totally unfair uneven playing field by I would disagree with you on one point I think this does help Mitt Romney what happened in the Middle East yesterday because. The fact of odds of this headline of this sort of headline. Going -- motivates the evangelicals. In motivates. Pro Israel people. Of of any sort including Jews. And it helps with fundraising and the L -- the Romney campaign I believe is looking at this election is being about fund raising that he is going to have enough money. To pound out a positive image for himself. Any negative portrayal of a very negative economy for for Obama and that's -- -- gonna win the election. Any pretty big fund raiser over the air authority paying dividends. It's clearly got cleaned and problems aren't that much -- overall that the vote or -- swing states whether voters aren't going to be voting on foreign policy. So I think when it comes down to it may help them raise more money which like -- got if you look at me airwaves now. Especially here at a crossroads -- they're everywhere here. Those anti Obama asked us not to go to Iran we don't campaign is gonna have ads. So they're here you know Obama figured pretty good beating or nobody might be Porter. With Major Garrett that nothing -- element too much impact yet. But I think. It Rodney has done a good job of leveling things are. Promote Obama's attack does that start earlier. I think it's it's it's got only a lot more level playing field interface -- -- -- the fact that the whole time until there's been any movement for Obama I think it's bad news for him. Because levels all that and -- we talked about before Obama never got above 50% you know we. Operate in the area high forties -- mid forties. So that's not good when they're trying to get get about the. Well when European when you're the incumbent and you can't get half the people to support your reelection bid. That that's not looking so good because -- anybody who's undecided is not gonna suddenly decide to vote for you. They're more likely to go the other way plus they economies just miserable. And it's getting worse and if we wanted a difficult story line for Barack Obama's reelection bid this is about as difficult as it could be. Right in pain intensity Olympic does Romney saying it you know it -- its make good. Pressed for a few days -- ever want gonna jump by about ultimately I don't believe no you probably don't mean that everything you're up and it. What's your take on the -- -- the anti capitalists. Pro socialist remarks of president made an in this sort of legs that that has. I think the Romney campaign. Thinks that this is something that's going to have a lasting impact that this is a wedge they can drive between. President Obama in the sense. That he's in any -- good for the economy. I think and I think this is much more significant than any comments Romney made in Europe. Those comments about apple and about the business world I think -- it has already resonated with people. And that's why there's started a bitter tried so hard to do empathize and Iran against and I think you make integrating PayPal it -- Scott Brown to. -- Elizabeth Warren. She's seen the comments first and her comment directly stronger than Obama. So I think he could have an impact on both of those races. Especially with what you said with the economy struck a lot of people struggling so much the last segment aligned here is. You know you you you don't want to have a successful business are you yet. Do it's it's a bit of thought Iran and an insult to a lot of these -- bigger people who are struggling now to work eighty hours a week. Just so they can't make sense to me. So you try this around the Harold. My you know I go by -- joke knock your editor and he says I want my paid and you say -- -- bill that. And go by your publisher or go what's his name pat Purcell. Yeah go by his privacy you build this. Yeah like help out. -- -- -- -- out there go to Erica we'll do -- -- -- much ordered not to let it not true at all. I'm pretty sure the other herald has been -- to -- government help those. -- -- It's so bizarre. That kind of comment and I think it's -- bad that for I think you're right that provides a real boost to the Romney campaign because it's a -- statement that crystallizes. The hostility towards the business world and that's a big reason they can't get the economy back. -- to kind of think people understand voters understand what they see that. Let you know and -- -- -- comments were taken our our pick but the overall message was clear. From the president what he was talking about so I don't think people understand -- We're -- a joke that fell from the Boston Herald Joseph is there any good reason not to have. A mandatory. Serving of your term when your sentence for your third violent felony. Well according to governor that not everybody can. That little bit I remain to me I think you know Governor Patrick is an unsparing war. What kind of democracy are we -- and legislate sooner or whoever they complete control hopefully. By Democrats they can do whatever they want. They come up with a bill that tighten up these -- mandatory sentences. So you know people commit three major crimes. Yank it out at war and everyone agrees that a good bill you know every critic police agreed that he Democrat -- -- Republican -- Think Governor Patrick says hey you know says well I'm gonna send it back I don't like it I think -- he got some phony opinions from those supreme -- State Supreme Court. It's saying how much part of the lieutenant bureau. It's ridiculous why he couldn't. You know this is a popular bill all -- like at the legislature. They could give us that went up there with give us a benefit out of your Al analytical mind if if if -- Deval Patrick knows everything you just said. But still pursues this thing it's either because in his heart this is just a really important thing to prison prevent -- -- I'm sorry to protect. Violent dangerous people make sure they're out on the street as soon as possible or. He wants to be a darling of the left and you don't get to be the darling of the left if you're not walking around with keys to the prison cells like -- people. Yeah I mean that but I think he is that this is all about he doesn't care about the city anymore what is standing this year otherwise you would have just signed a bill. He's hearing about the future you look you know he's traveling around the country. He wants to be a national thing RLC not here he's imagining yourself a VP candidate or may be a presidential candidate. Right under I think more presidential in the -- so I -- the -- out I don't know why you would want to make it BP deal parents. It's sort of you know at alienate the legislature here is what he's doing as well. Of the -- Arab you know the next -- -- would be if people got current members of current bank in it I know that they'll forget it could say oh that. I've made in an apartment need to cut the ball well and had but he recently acquired all of the -- So the question I guess would be. Does he I have to blow up the the bill completely which he can do now I guess. Yeah -- well I I believe very well -- that they'll send it back Syria very transparent background I eat it later color at a faster. Do these vetoes it and then basically they could come back. You know getting allegedly -- a master -- Lot it's an election year would be great year for them to come back it's possible it's possible side all it takes is like one democratic legislator to block. So I don't know they can do it. And it looked bad I think all around the governor. It's -- -- code while they're already. God you know they had no chance really to do anything of course they'll -- it all every chance that you come back into it. Let me give -- -- -- -- left field. Who is gonna be the democratic nominee for governor next time. I the democratic nominee for governor next summer and is looked scene right now light Steve Grossman. But not -- call -- Well it's right. Anyway she made way -- -- denials blanket like why would sound better lol here. And leave seventy -- out a lot of Democrats that what into that. But I think -- better are awaiting governor -- I don't know. You know that are real electric -- but if you really bad lie and now I may -- -- That much interest but he certainly thing you know right outlook popular Democrat in the city if you look at the poll up. And he's doing all kind of thing Q he's in the paper like every day. Right now. So I mean maybe he she will be looking for governor. Will treat and obviously I think if you -- man she'd be up front runner. Yeah I would think so you know I mean anything can happen and Steve Grossman will be a formidable candidate. But she's got all this press going on all the time -- I just want to find that out because I find it intriguing. The the lack of bench on the part of both parties when you think about so it Charlie -- the de facto nominee I guess if he decides. He's gonna take a run -- a for the Republicans it again but it's not clear. On the democratic side that's an unusual circumstance made possible by. The weakness of the lieutenant governor right. Well but yet lieutenant governor onto our current and others scenario that -- happen before that rate like commands in the yet another senate seat could open who knows what outraged at -- George the president re election who reacted right in and then -- it's possible John Kerry could go to Washington and that would open up a senate seat yeah. Well I got what they expect it happened so I think a lot of people are waiting to see or at bat. But it -- when Martha Coakley I think -- she decided to run you'd be the front runner. -- Joba and Phil thank you sir. It's hard when we talk would show every week here on WRK a state till we got a bunch of stuff planned for the next half hour including defense spending you know there -- we've got this thing coming called the fiscal cliff. And defense spending is what they're gonna cut you whether you know what -- rather when I'm trying to say is defense cuts are coming. And it seems to me inevitable and not necessarily a bad thing I think that has to happen stay tuned to 680 WRKO.
