i served with newt gingrich. sorry i don't know governor perry but i know governor romney and so on. all of these candidates are going to have their moment when there's a spotlight on what they have done and what they would do. and i am -- i'm not going to endorse anybody. i'm waiting to see how that process works. >> my point is, you know gingrich. do you think he can get the nomination? >> i don't know whether he can. and i think one of the things that this demonstrates is that you do have a group of republican candidates who are united around one principle, and that is that another four years of barack obama as president would be very harmful to this country. >> i want to ask you this, the occupy wall street movement, and protests around the country, have become a political issue. and as we talked about, income inequality, we talk about america's debt, this was the scene in northern california, u.c. davis, pepper spray being used an protesters. newt gingrich was very critical of this moment. i want to play som

four months ago, if we were on talking about the renaissance of newt gingrich, newt gingrich as the hot, young thing in the republican presidential race, we would have laughed a lot more than a republican convention. this is an unpredictable electorate in an unpredictable election cycle. i would agree 100% with susan. it's not going to happen because the republican party poobahs won't let it happen. >> this is the scariest vision i've come across since ebenezer scrooge spotted jacob marley on his doorknob. thank you, chris and susan. >>> up next, mitt romney's campaign released an ad last week which clearly took the president's words out of context, in fact, i think totally distorted them. and now susan -- susan? now stephen colbert has taken his revenge. that's coming up in the sideshow. colbert to destroy romney. you're watching "hardball," only on msnbc.

now, it is newt gingrich's turn. the question is, can he handle the questions about his corporate contracts and about his, the fact that he talks about so many various issues over the past years. can he handle that in a way the other candidates failed to do so. >> i want to see how republicans feel about their candidates. you call this the positive intensity scores. here's the read. they represent the percentage of strongly favorable opinions of each candidate, minus the percentage of strongly unfavorable opinions there. that's how the math works. here we have newt gingrich and herman cain tied at 17 each. but while newt is up four points from last month, cain is down 17. >> he dropped in half. he was the highest we had seen at 34 a few weeks ago and his trajectory is down on this measure that republicans have intense feelings for him and newt gingrich is on the way back up. mitt romney, steady as a rock. but he's been at 10, 12 points on this scale, which means that although republicans like mitt romney, they don't
