bill: paul ryan put forward entitlement reform too? >> which nobody really wants to adopt in the republican party. so, you know --. bill: he is the one who signed his name to it. justin what about this. >> well, yes. president is president of the united states. he is the leader of our country. it is up to him to lead. if he is not willing to lead on issue he needs to be replaced. i mean for him to say that paul ryan didn't get religion. okay, when will president obama get religion on tackling the federal debt? he barely even mentioned it in his state of the union address last week. i think that tells voters all they need to know where his priorities are. he is trying to soak the rich. he wants to increase taxes on well think. that seems to be his only plan to reduce the deficit. that is not going to sell well. bill: sounds like a campaign that will be borne out for nine months. justin i asked you about florida. kirsten, can president win florida given this climate with foreclosures and issues about health care and, and the unemployment

>> guest: that was a option of how to save medicare and other ideas of paul ryan and democratic senator from oregon that came up with a bipartisan proposal. we have to make change to medicare or it will not be there for seniors who count on it. we'll do a serious budget. but also remember this. on tuesday, it will be 1,000 days since the united states senate passed budget. wop thousand district attorneys and they have yet to pass a budget. how do you deal with a long-term fiscal problems if you refuse to come to an agreement on the budget. >> chris: there was thought that because of the hits you guys took last year you were going to pass the budget this year. >> guest: of course we are. >> chris: how do you get the democrats from turning it into a political punching bag like they did last year? >> guest: if you do the right things for the right reasons. don't worry about it. >> chris: at a retreat you house republicans held in baltimore. you talked about oversight and holding the president accountable and making the next year a referendum on barack obama's policies. it sounds to me and

one of the ways in which he's tried to remedy that problem was by coming down in favor of paul ryan's plan. and paul ryan's plan is one of the -- what the president's people think is one of his biggest weapons, one of the biggest clubs in his bag that they are going to try to use to beat mitt romney on the issues of social security, entitlement reforms and medicare. also when you heard romney make that argument, it's inconsistent with the paul ryan plan but it leads him into a discussion of health care reform. i don't see how a discussion of health care reform is a discussion he's going to be able to win versus president obama given everything we know about the similarities between obamacare and romneycare. >> we'll be hearing about those vouchers in the paul ryan plan. john heilemann and adam smith, thank you both very much for joining me tonight. >> thank you, lawrence. >>> coming up, newt gingrich promises to drag out the republican nomination process as long as he possibly can. but will democrats really get that lucky? newt is not that great about keeping promises. and i'm not goi

there are other ideas, paul ryan and ron widen, democrat senator from oregon came up with aoc bipartisan proposal. the idea here is that we've gota to make changes to medicare, otherwise it will not be there for seniors who care about it. so we will do a serious budget. but also remember this, on tuesday, it will be 1,000 days since the united states senatel passed a budget. 1,000 days and they have yet to pass a budget. how doo you deal with a long-tem fiscal problems that we have if you refuse to come to annt agreement on a budget? >> chris: i want to make it clear, because there had been thought that because of the hits that you guys took last year, you weren't going to pass a budget. budget going to pass a again this year? >> of course we are. >> chris: how do you preventoi democrats from turning it agains particularly proposals like entitlement reform, into a political punching bag as they did last year? >> i tell my members every day, if you do the right thing for the right reason, the right things will happen. don't worry about it. >> chris: at a retreat that you house republicans

>> paul ryan, joe scarborough, of course. you could have listened to you surely could have listened to me. you could have listened to people like rush limbaugh. paul ryan had stuff out there. >> i'm just saying there aren't that many. >> but, but -- >> who could have stood on this issue and said, i fought this. >> we forget, though, in real-time, this was a huge, huge problem, because nick smith, then a congressman from i hadmy said they kept the vote open, they kept the vote open for a couple of hours. they were bribing him with money. for his son's campaign. it's not like this slipped past in the middle of the night. we conservatives were very angry about this. and again, i digress a little bit. but only because there aren't really a lot of good choices up there. >> i would go back -- >> for conservatives. >> to the issue of lobbying, which newt gingrich was confronted with last night. "the new york times" has a pretty searing editorial that characterizes what he did. not that we need to pile on with newt gingrich. but the

the man behind the plan is congressman paul ryan, chair of the house budget committee. and congressman, welcome back to "fox news sunday." >> thanks for having me back. >> chris: start with the president's state of the union speech and his central argument that democrats are looking out for the middle class while republicans want to protect the rich. take a look. >> a shrinking number of people do really well while a growing number of americans barely get by. or are we can restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot and everyone does their fair share and everyone plays by the same set of rules. >> chris: isn't that a strong at least a strong political message? >> the irany is the president's policies do the exact pop sit. the president can't run on his record. it as miserable record. he is not going to change his tune because he is really stuck with his ideology. he is going to run a very divisive campaign for political gain and he has this concept of fairness and equality where he uses the kind of rhetoric we use but the policies he is producing will result in c

bass isn't alone mitt romney has fully endorsed the paul ryan plan too and medicare meaning when the general election comes around he'll have to explain to the nation why he wants to take medicare away from future retirees will also have to explain his so-called record of job creation is the head of the private equity firm bain capital today the wall street journal did that form the paper looked into seventy seven businesses that bain invested in between one thousand nine hundred four in one thousand nine hundred nine while the firm was under romney's watch and what they found is this quote twenty two percent of the businesses either filed for bankruptcy reorganization or closed their doors by the end of the a year after bain first invested sometimes with a substantial job losses an additional eight percent range it is so much trouble that all of the money bain invested was lost that's twenty two percent that's one out of five businesses that failed under romney's watch with as the wall street journal reported substantial job losses and just today just today romney seemed to revel in

in the comment we heard you were praising the paul ryan program. it's a voucher program seniors would get so much money from the government to buy health care. if the cost of the health care then in years down the road exceed the voucher they would have to make up the difference on their own. would a president santorum be comfortable with that? >> yeah, that's exactly how the medicare prescription drug plan works john. it works that way right now. we make that available to seniors. it's similar to what paul ryan's proposing, as you know, ron wyden signed on to. the voucher does go up. the voucher does go up, based on the competitive increases driven by competition in the insurance plans which is exactly what you want. you want the private sector competing, driving down costs, improving efficiency, get rid of cme where government micromanages health care through medicare, medicaid. that's the advantage of a ryan plan. we have right now in essence either a government-run or a government-regulated private sector insurance system. what we need is a der

we'll get an exclusive first look at gop plans from paul ryan. plus, the president takes his state of the union address out for a test drive. but hits a bump in the road. we'll ask our sunday panel whether the president's messagee will help him win reelection. and it's winner take all in florida, so the stakes couldn't beidn' higher on the trail. all right now on fox news sunday and hello again from fox news in washington. on tuesday, the republicanhe presidential candidates facedes their biggest test yet. in florida's winner take all primary. joining us now from tampa is one of the two front runners, former house speaker, newt gingrich. welcome back to fox news sunday. >> good to be back with you. >> chris: mr. speaker, you came out of south carolina with a big head of steam, according to the real clear politics average of recent polls, earlier this week, you were leading governor romney by 7 points, but now he is leading you by 8 points. question, what's happened? >> governor romney has the ability to raise an amazing amount of money out of wal

the paul ryan plan, right? which proposes rather dramatic changes to medicare. >> 2%. >> last night mitt romney said that basically, we're not going to touch medicare. which of those two do you believe? >> we're not going to touch medicare. >> you know -- >> there's one big conservative credential is that i backed the ryan plan. was that last night, did he not just basically repudiate the one thing that was supposed to give him credibility with conservatives? >> he said we're not going to touch it. which means you're like a doctor that's opened up the patient and you've seen cancer throughout the patient's body. you close up the patient. he woke up, you tap him on the foot, you said, you're good. go with be your grandkids, you're going to live a long time. >> he also just said, everything i said about the ryan plan was a lie. >> you can, you can loathe the ryan plan if you wish. paul ryan had the courage to do what democrats haven't done. they haven't even passed a budget in over 1,000 days, he put a plan on th

that is pretty much what paul ryan's plan is. a premium support model, so does every other federal employee. it works for it welt that the federal government has a liability that puts money out there and if you want, if you are unemployed in washington d.c., you have a bunch of different plans to choose from and you have all sorts of options available to you. you won a more expensive plan, you pay more. if you want of less-expensive plan, you do not. barack obama, you believe that people can be free to make choices or you need to make decisions for them. i think americans should be free to make choices in their health care plan that is best for them. >> if governor romney, a lot of discussion this morning on facebook about taxes. as we talk about taxes and spending, of course we talk about economic security in the economic growth. there's been a debate in washington and beyond as you know between warren buffett and grover norquist. grover norquist says that no tax increases under any circumstances. warren buffett says, the wealth

what paul ryan proposed that came out of the house budget committee. you may recall there was a lot of controversy over it and there should have been a lot of controversy over it. he was talking about draconian cuts, a lot of them would have gone in medicare, you would have ended up in a situation where you have senior citizens who can't pay medical bills. all sorts of problems like that. not just for the poor but middle class. if you look dollar for dollar and romney proposed a spending cap and look at the number of dollars he wants to take out of the federal budget, he wants to take more money out of the budget than paul ryan did. now he hasn't said exactly how he would do it but one way or another, you are going to see huge cuts to programs like medicare, like medicaid, and it's not just the social services we're talking about. basic functions of government here do you like the fda inspecting drugs for safety? the fbi, roads? some combination will get massive cuts, if romney were to become president and get to implement his plan. >> mr. romney in po

. >> not what paul ryan is suggesting? >> i think that is too big a jump. >> in words that somehow seemed to foreshadow the campaign ahead, he was frank about his perceived shortcomings as a candidate. >> one of my great weaknesses is part of my is a teacher analyst and part of me is a political leader. one of the most painful lessons i've had to learn and i haven't fully learned, obviously, is that if you seek to be the president of the united states, you are never an analyst. you know, you're never a college teacher. those folks can say what they want to say. somebody who offers to lead america has to be much more disciplined and much more thoughtful than analyst. an analyst can say anything he wants to. >> you have high negatives, still a high unfavorable rating. some of that, mr. speaker, has to do with our own personal life. you've been married three times and it extra mare that will affa affairs and pursues president clinton for impeachment that earns you the label of being a hypocrite. i wonder how you're going to d

there are other ideas paul ryan and ron widen, democratic senator from oregon came up with a bipartisan proposal. the idea is we have to make changes to medicare otherwise it will not be there for seniors who count on it. we will do a serious budget but also remember this. on tuesday, it will be one thousand days since the united states senate passed a budget. 1,000 days and they have yet to pass a budget. how do you deal with a long-term fiscal problems that we have if you refuse to come to an agreement on a budget? >> chris: i want to make clear because there had been some thought that maybe because of the hits that you guys took last year you were goen weren'o pass a budget. you going to pass a budget this year. >> of course, we. >> chris: and how do you keep democrats from turning things like entitlement reform into a punching bag like they did last me. >> if you do the right things for the right reasons the right things will happen. don't worry about it. >> chris: you personally kept talking about oversight, holding this president accountable and making this next year a referendum

paul ryan, the house budget chief gained a lot of fame especially with the tea party, a rising star if his own right. what do you think? >>guest: he is considered with rubio a rising star of the republican party, next generation. he has a lost credibility with the tea party on fiscal matters. popular guy in wisconsin and wisconsin, obama won it big in 2008, some think it could be in play and scott walker and what has gone on and paul ryan would bring a lot to a potential ticket no matter who is at the top. >>neil: what about virginia, a state that has slipped into obama's hand, steady as she go, almost too steady, too much like mitt romney? >>guest: perhaps. it depends. mcdonnell won virginia with 59 percent of the vote, a huge number. this state went for obama first time gone for a democrat since 1964 and republicans thing they can when it bam and team obama thinks they can hold on. but outside of that, they are similar if you talk about mitt romney and mcdonnell but not argument is going to be, competency running against incompetent administration, mcdonnell would help augment the me
