- WALLACE: All right. Let's take a look at one of the religions here in Washington, which is polls, and here's the latest poll. Let's put it up. It shows you at this point in the Republican horse race in fifth place behind Condi Rice, Rudy Giuliani and John McCain.
In less than two years, and that's what we're talking about between now and when the primaries and caucuses start, how do you beat Republicans who are so much better known than you are?
- ROMNEY: Well, I certainly don't intend to announce any plans at this point, so I don't have, you know, any willingness to respond to a hypothesis about my running.
However, I can say that people who fall very low in the public opinion polls at this stage have emerged to be at the top of the pile. I know you just talked with Senator Biden. I think he anticipates that as he gets better known that he'll rise.
And as I recall, Bill Clinton probably had about a 1 percent poll figure at this stage in his career. And as people get known, and people take a close look at who the folks are, I think you'll see changes. But I can't predict that I'll be one of them or that I would rise rather than fall.
