Mid of woman voting at booth STORYLINE With voting under way in Tuesday's critical Michigan primary, Mitt Romney said he's struggling with the conservative Republican voters backing rival Rick Santorum in the state because he's unwilling to make the "incendiary" comments he said they want. And, Romney acknowledged that his own mistakes aren't helping. Asked by reporters why he's struggling to win over his party's right wing in the state where he was born and raised, Romney said it's because he's not willing to say "outrageous things" like his opponents. "We've seen throughout the campaign that if you're willing to say really outrageous things that are really accusative and attacking of President Obama, you're going to jump up in the polls," Romney said. Fielding questions from the national travelling press corps for the first time in nearly three weeks, he said: "I'm not willing to light my hair on fire to try and get support. I am what I am." Romney also accused Santorum of trying to "kidnap the primary process" by urging Democrats to come to the polls in Michigan's open primary and vote against the former Massachusetts governor. Santorum's campaign is calling Democrats in Michigan, urging them to vote in Tuesday's GOP primary, which is open to members of other parties. The call urges them to vote against Romney because he opposed the government bailout of the auto industry. Both campaigns are waging all-out efforts to bring supporters to the polls because the race between Romney and Santorum in Michigan is neck-and-neck. Romney has acknowledged that a loss in the state where his father served as governor would be hugely embarrassing and could deal a strong blow to his campaign. The former Massachusetts governor spent the past five days campaigning hard in Michigan, selling himself as a native son steeped in the auto industry that has defined the state for decades. He has a strong lead in Arizona, which also votes Tuesday. Romney claimed Tuesday that he doesn't see his campaign organization as responsible for his setbacks - instead, he blamed himself. "I'm very pleased with the campaign, its organisation. The candidate sometimes makes some mistakes and so I'm trying to do better and work harder and make sure that we get our message across," Romney said. The candidate stopped by his Michigan campaign headquarters Tuesday in Livonia to thank supporters for their help. He shook hands with people working a phone bank on his behalf. In nearby Novi, voters cast their ballot in the primary at a local church, just one of the many precincts across the state. One woman said she voted for Romney because she felt he was the best Republican candidate to take on Obama in the general election.

ABC Crew coverage of Rick Santorum in Livonia, MI on 2/27/12. Cuts/Gladhanding/Head-on Speech In Interplay: CAMPAIGN 2012 SANTORUM LIVONIA MI 022712 LIVONIA, Michigan--Santorum addressed a crowd of about 300 at a Chamber of Commerce breakfast this morning and he expressed some surprise at getting to this point on the eve of the Michigan primary: -TIME CODES ARE OFF- 1:00 "As you can imagine, I am pretty excited to be here. This is not a place that frankly I thought we were going to be competing at the level that we're competing." He spent most of his speech talking about the economy, but did still mention social issues (keep reading).He hit Romney without naming him by saying the election is not about "beating up your opponent or outspending them 10-to-1, but actually going out and running a race that elevates the discussion." He said his econ/jobs/tax plan is "bold" and mentioned that it doesn't fit into an economic school of thought: "The wall street journal calls it a bold tax plan. they don't necessarily agree with all of it, i don't care if they agree with all of it. this is a tax plan that isn't conforming toany type of school of economics because america has it's own destiny, we don't fit into those schools. we cut our own path , we are Americans. We can do things differently and we can be successful in doing it," Santorum said. He said the separation of church and state has been reversed and it's now religious people who can't practice their faith outside of church. Note the reporter hit: 09:46:23 You hear so much about separation of church and state. I'm for separation of church and state. The state has no business telling what the church to do. But the separation of church and state that our founders believed in, which is what I just described, has now been turned on its head. And now it's the church, people of faith who have no right to come to the public square and express their points of view, or practice their faith outside of their church. Listen to what the president says and what the first lady-not the first lady, but secretary of state says when they talk about the freedom of religion. They don't use that term all the time. They use a different term: freedom of worship. We're here at a hall for St. Mary's. you go to the hall over there, you go to the sanctuary, you can talk all you want. 09:47:23 But if you come here and you try to practice your faith, uh uh. Then the government's going to tell you what to do. Is that how you interpret the first amendment? Freedom of worship is not just what you do within the sanctuary. Its how you practice your faith outside the sanctuary, and at least in the America that I grew up in and that used to be around, that was freedom of religion. That was what was this country founded upon. 09:48:00 All reporters in the back they say, oh there's Santorum talking about social issues again. No, I'm talking about freedom. I'm talking about government imposing themselves on your lives. He repeated his hits on Romney: forcing Catholic hospitals to provide the morning after pill, cap and trade, and bail outs (More below): "Why are we giving away govt.'s role in bailing out companies? i know that's not a popular topic here in detroit, but at least i'm consistent. 26:49 Capitalism is painful. We all know markets are painful sometimes. When people don't keep up, when people do things that the market doesn't like, a lot of people suffer. They suffer more if you try to rig the game. I've been consistent on that. I can go after President Obama on that. No one else can in this race can. We need sharp contrasts. We need a vision that's consistent, that believes in free people, free markets." He got his biggest applause line when he mentioned the Koran burning in Afghanistan and said we should "stop apologizing for America and stand up and defend our troops." 1600 "We've got bold and strong plans on how to make America safer and respected and not a weak horse that allows radicals to try and intimidate us, like what's going on in Afghanistan. We fall all over ourselves to apologize for something we did not have to apologize for. We made a mistake, and the response was deliberately killing Americans. That's not a mistake. We should stop apologizing for America and stand up and defend our troops." And although Santorum has undoubtedly been the doomsday candidate, preaching death and destruction consistently. He said he's the candidate with the positive vision: 09:54:21 "That's why Im looking forward to hopefully a great night tomorrow, and at least the opportunity to go put and try to paint this positive, hopeful optimistic vision about someone running for president who actually doesn't want to run for president because they want to be the most powerful person in the world, they want to run for president because they want to turn the power in this country back to the American people." On the rope line, a reporter asked what he thought of Gov Romney saying he focuses too much on social issues. Santorum responded, "Tell him to watch my speech." FULL SOTS: 1:00 "As you can imagine, I am pretty excited to be here. This is not a place that frankly I thought we were going to be competing at the level that we're competing." I always mention as a kid growing up in western Pennsylvania if our Republican nominee for president can win in Pennsylvania and if you look at the front page of usa today we are running ahead of Barack Obama in Pennsylvania today. if we can win in ohio and do the same thing there and then do the same thing in michigan you can go to bed at 11 o'clock and this election is over and we will be the president of the united states. that's the msg that we are delivering that the hope and optimism that we've been talking about, the important of getting our economy turned around and producing things again 2:00 SPENDING 10 TO ONE AND ECON PLAN : 3:15 "If you're looking for someone who will persevere, someone who will not be deterred by what the pundits tell you that you should believe or that you have to do, who will stay true north in what they believe in. Someone who is authentic someone who is persistent, someone who can make big things happens with a little bit of money, which is something we need a lot more of in Washington, DC. Someone who can take and wage a battle on ideas, not by beating up your opponent or outspending them 10-to-1, but actually going out and running a race that elevates the discussion, brings in things that maybe people don't want to talk about but are important aspects of American life. Ladies and gentleman, this is the kind of change that we need. we need the kind of change that's going to be big in washington. nost some minor change, not some reshuffling of the deck chairs but a real fundamental change in the size and scale of govt, the role of govt in your lives and the role of govt in the business community. our tax plan, the wall street journal calls it a bold tax plan. they don't necessarily agree with all of it, i don't care if they agree with all of it. this is a tax plan that isn't conforming to any type of school of economics because america has it's own destiny, we don't fit into those schools. we cut our own path , we are Americans. We can do things differently and we can be successful in doing it. Our plan is bold. It doesn't just, you know, take an existing tax code and play around with it in 59 or 69 or 89 different tweaks. What we do is fundamentally whole-sale change. NOt whole sale in the sense that its a shock to the system. Its a simplification of the tax code. Its a simplification that cuts rates and spurs economic activity" SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE: 09:46:23 You hear so much about separation of church and state.

In Interplay: CAMPAIGN 2012 SANTORUM LIVONIA MI FNC 022712 LIVONIA, Michigan--Santorum addressed a crowd of about 300 at a Chamber of Commerce breakfast this morning and he expressed some surprise at getting to this point on the eve of the Michigan primary: -TIME CODES ARE OFF- 1:00 "As you can imagine, I am pretty excited to be here. This is not a place that frankly I thought we were going to be competing at the level that we're competing." He spent most of his speech talking about the economy, but did still mention social issues (keep reading).He hit Romney without naming him by saying the election is not about "beating up your opponent or outspending them 10-to-1, but actually going out and running a race that elevates the discussion." He said his econ/jobs/tax plan is "bold" and mentioned that it doesn't fit into an economic school of thought: "The wall street journal calls it a bold tax plan. they don't necessarily agree with all of it, i don't care if they agree with all of it. this is a tax plan that isn't conforming toany type of school of economics because america has it's own destiny, we don't fit into those schools. we cut our own path , we are Americans. We can do things differently and we can be successful in doing it," Santorum said. He said the separation of church and state has been reversed and it's now religious people who can't practice their faith outside of church. Note the reporter hit: 09:46:23 You hear so much about separation of church and state. I'm for separation of church and state. The state has no business telling what the church to do.

And the dollar has been used as a reserve currency as if it were gold. And therefore the inflationary problems of the world and all thedistortions and all the debt crisis is world wide and therefore we're facing a crisis bigger than ever. So the recognition is there. And this is not all that bad because its when people live with their heads in the sand that we keep doing the same thing over and over again. And right now people are waking up and saying you can't solve the problem of too much spending and too muchborrowing and too much debt and too much printing press money by merely doing the same thing over and over again so that's why I'm optimistic that the people know now that we can't continue on the same course that we have been doing for at least the last 40 or 50 years." 01:18:35 LOCATION/STORY: Cumming, GA: Newt Gingrich addresses redeemer church congregation (NNS / FNC) Embargo: Non-NNS StationsVIDEO SHOWS/SHOTLIST: SOT-Gingrich: "All of us here have committed our life and try to commit our children's lives to a profound belief in an historic truth.

Law enforcement officials have set up dozens of chain-link cage like cells in an empty warehouse on the northeast side of Denver. The cells are topped with razor wire. Authorities say mass arrests have happened at past conventions. Denver's jails are already at capacity so officials say this is what they've come up with to deal with protesters who break the law. Some of those who plan to protest at the convention were shown video of the jail. They say they look like a political prison or concentration camp. On Wednesday, the mayor's office released a statement saying that anyone arrested who ends up in that jail will be given access to water, bathrooms, medical staff and phones and that those who are arrested will not be released into neighborhoods. City officials say the place will be open for tours once construction is done. SUPERS: Denver, CO Capt.

It is his second visit to football practice in the last week (he stopped by Marshall University practice in WV last week). Manheim football, led by 27 year coach MIke Williams, is considered a PA powerhouse having won 15 league championships as well as the state championship in 03 (runnerup in 04). Williams has been named state coach of the year twice. McCain and Lieberman watched the offense go through a couple plays, applauding each time a received caught the ball and yelling "good." He and Lieberman chatted with the coach Williams for a bit before he told his team to gather at the 50 for a short talk. Lieberman spoke first, telling the team that he is supporting McCain for the good of the country and compared Congress to a team as he talked about the importance of bipartisanship. He also compared McCain to a coach. "When you are on a team together, with a great coach, you don't think of the differences between you, you figure out how to play together to win the game." Lieberman: "I haven't thought of you as the coach before, (mccain laughs) cause he would be a great president slash coach to bring all Americans together, put us on one team and get something done for the country." McCain praised Coach Williams and the team and stressed the importance of teamwork. "Individuals are important....but you win as a team and you lose as a team," McCain said before recounting a story from his time as a POW. He discussed how the Vietnamese kept them a part in solitary because they got together as a team--they could take down their captors. He also discussed how they would tap on the walls to communicate. He wished them good luck, urged them to give every game their all and leave it on the field and added that he will be following their games and record on the internet. He asked those who will be 18 in November to vote and urge their parents to do the same. He then signed a football for the team and shook more hands. 01:32:05 LOCATION/STORY: CindyMcCainNJ VIDEO SHOWS/SHOTLIST: SUPERS: - Red Bank, NJ - Cindy McCain/wife of Senator McCain SCRIPT: Cindy McCain visiting a diner in Red Bank, New Jersey today 01:35:20 LOCATION/STORY: Obama On Georgia: Hawaii: Barack Obama statement on the situation in Georga (POOL) LENGTH: :35 SCRIPT: The United States, Europe and all other concerned countries must stand united in condemning this aggression, and seeking a peaceful resolution to this crisis.

John McCain on Russia-Georgia Conflict VIDEO LENGTH: 2:48 SCRIPT: Republican presidential candidate John McCain today called on the United Nations to pass a resolution calling for a cease fire and a withdrawal of Russian troops from Georgian territory. In a speech in Erie, Pennsylvania this morning, Senator McCain said "there is no way to justify Moscow's path of violent aggression." He said the United States has strategic interests in Georgia. VERBATIM: MCCAIN: Whatever tensions and host- hostilities might have existed between Georgians and Ossetians, they in no way justify Moscow's path of violent aggression. Russian actions in clear violation of international law have no place in 21st century Europe. The implications of Russian actions go beyond their threat to the territorial integrity and independence of a democratic Georgia. Russia is using violence against Georgia in part to intimidate other neighbors such as Ukraine, for choosing to associate with the west and adhering to western political and economic values. As such, the fate of Georgia should of grave concern to Americans and all people who welcome the ended, the end of a divided Europe and the independence of former Soviet Republics. The international response to this crisis will determine how Russia manages its relationships with other neighbors. We have other important interests, strategic interests at stake in Georgia. Especially the continued flow of oil through the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, which Russia attempted to bomb in recent days. The operation of a critical communication and trade group from Georgia to Azerbaijan in central Asia, and the integrity and influence of NATO who's members reaffirmed last April the territorial integrity, independence and sovereignty of Georgia. Yesterday, Georgia withdrew its troops from South Ossetia and offered a cease fire. The Russians responded by bombing the civilian airport in Georgia's capital, Tbilisi, and by stepping up its offensive in Abkhazia. This pattern of attack appears, aimed not at restoring any status quo ante in South Ossetia but rather toppling the democratically-elected government of Georgia. This would be unacceptable to all the democratic countries of the world and should draw us together in universal condemnation of Russian aggression. 01:39:21 LOCATION/STORY: Erie, PA: John McCain with former Gov Tom Ridge VIDEO SHOWS/SHOTLIST: John McCain stepping off plane and greeting Tom Ridge.
