Sure, Mr. President.
You are.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello, Jim.
Yes, Mr. President.
I just called to wish you the very best on Tuesday.
I urge you to work right up to the last time and to say that I'm sorry I can't get to Idaho.
But when you go around these next two days, would you express my appreciation for the support Idaho people have given me in the past years?
And also tell them that I told you that we need you in that Senate.
We need our Republicans who are running for the House and the Senate in the House.
And I look forward to working with you in these next four years.
Well, thank you very much.
I think it's going well.
And as a matter of fact, I'm looking at a paper right now with a half-page ad with your very kind letter of endorsement.

Well, it certainly does, and I appreciate that, of course.
Secretary Romney was here last night and gave a rousing pitch for the... Great, isn't he?
Yes, he did a very, very good job.
Great.
We'll pull them all together and win, okay?
We're planning to do that.
All right, and we'll see you in January.
All right, thank you, Mr. President.
