Introducing delivers mega support. Pampers. Unlike ordinary diapers with two layers, pampers have three absorbent layers to stay up to three times drier, Hillary Clinton and donald trump are taking some time off the campaign trail to prepare for sundays president ial debate in st. Louis. This will be the second of three planned debates. And it will be a town hallstyle faceoff with a lot of interaction with the crowd. Trumps advisers are stressing the need for him to remain cal his skin. They say he can take some clues from his running mate, mike pence, who didnt lose his cool in tuesdays Vice President ial debate with tim kaine. Pence discussed that debate on cbs this morning. I was very humbled, very honored to be on that stage to tell the story about Donald Trumps vision to make America Great again. It was my great privilege to go out. And to be honest with you, i know some people have said i won the debate. Ill leave that to others. Donald trump won the debate. It was Donald Trumps vision to make America Great again. It was Donald Trumps aspirations for this country. The policies hes been articulating that i carried forward well, he said it was his governor pence i also wanted to draw a contrast in this debate. And as i said, it was a privilege for me to be there. Governor pence, hes claiming credit. He says it was his good judgment in choosing you as his first hire. Yeah. As his first hire. Do you think thats an example of the good judgment, and are you giving him any pointers . People say you could give him pointers this sunday night. Well, look, i honestly obviously, im very humbled by his esteem and by the kind words of others. But i think the reason why donald trump has built an extraordinary business, an extraordinary career is because he has had the judgment to make it through tough times. You saw those tax releases that came out from 20 years ago. He faced enormous losses in his business. He led an incredible comeback. Him women and men of extraordinary ability and enteprise and i think its exactly the kind of judgment and exactly the kind of people that hes going to bring around him if we have the privilege of serving in the next administration. Governor, you said that in the debate you were speaking about Donald Trumps vision. However, you guys differ on a number of policy issues. so let me ask you specifically about those issues. Specifically on the topic of immigration. Mr. Trump said that he has supported a deportio do you also support that . Well, that came up in the debate and it was quite striking to me. All this talk about a Deportation Force. We have a Deportation Force in this country. Its called immigrations and Customs Enforcement. And for the first time in the history of immigrations and Customs Enforcement their union endorsed donald trump to be the next president of the united know he has a plan to end illegal immigration beginning with border security, strengthening internal enforcement you through immigrations and customs, identifying and removing from this country criminal aliens that are bringing violence and crime to our streets, removing people from this country that the law requires leave after they overstay their visa and then saying once weve done all of that got it. Lets then reform our immigration system. Daylight between donald trump and i on that or any other issue. I truly do believe the American People long for us to end illegal immigration. Weve talked about it for decades. Lets do it and lets do it in the order that donald trump described. Governor, let me ask you about aleppo. Aid groups say the situation there is dire. There are 100,000 children trapped inside aleppo without food, water, or aid. Would you support using u. S. Warplanes to enforce a zone, a could get in . Well, donald trump and i have consistently called for the establishment of safe zones under the umbrella of international approval. And we have to act. The fact that you had the assad regime with the russians in the wake the failure of the russian reset by Hillary Clinton, theyre literally on the edge of aleppo and you point straight to those familist 100,000 children. We have to act. We have to act now to establish and protect those safe zones. So and when i was talking the other night in the debate i said we absolutely should be prepared to use military force to establish and preserve the safe zones so and the ability for people to safely evacuate out of those areas. So governor we cant stand idly by while this humanitarian crisis so governor, your running mate, the man at the top of the ticket, has said this. I would have stayed out of syria. You guys have a different position on this issue. Well, i think Donald Trumps been very, very clear about his view of the syrian situation, that what we have is an administration that first said we were going to have a reset with russia. Thats been a total failure under Hillary Clintons leadership as secretary of state. President obama said he would draw a red line, that if syria ever used chemical weapons against its citizens that there would be consequences. The assad regime did and there were so just to be absolutely clear, governor pence, you and you only need to mention that isis just to be absolutely clear i do think i want to be in forgive me. I want to be absolutely clear. You and donald trump agree that you would use u. S. Military force, you have said, to bomb assad forces and to enforce a there is absolute agreement between the two of you . Well, where theres absolute agreement is we have to establish safe zones for people to be able to get out of harms way in aleppo. And if you dont back that up with military resources and our allies in the region, then you cant really guarantee that people and those 100,000 children will be able to get out of harms way. Syria has imploded into a civil war. Isis is headquartered in syria. Its all emblematic of the weak and feckless leadership of this administration governor, let me ask one question and make one distinction. And thats why we need change. But we cannot stand idly by. By the way, america has. Moving red lines, feigning resets with russia. Wringing our hands. Saying as the secretary of state recently said that were just out of talks with russia. All the while here we have the leader of russia, you know, the United States of America Needs to be there for those suffering families in aleppo. And at the same time we need to continue focus our resources as donald trump has on destroying isis at its source. Its headquartered in syria. Its headquartered in raqqah. And when donald trump becomes president of the United States, were going to put the safety and security of the American People first but were also going to be there to provide ma for people that are coming under the brutal, brutal results of this kind of action.

Bill geist paid a visit to the annual carnival trade show, where all the new fun and games are up for sale. . Reporter its the annual carnival trade show. Held in gibsonton, florida by the 4,500member International Independent showmans association. Not too fast.

That was frank lantini. He was the threelegged man, and reporter in fact, gibsonton was once the hometown of nearly every sideshow performer in the country. Which made for one strange little town. In the 40s and 50s there were 138 human oddities in this town. And you had the tallest fire chief and the police 84. And the police chief a midget. Hi, yall. Renowned former sideshow impresario. He vividly recalls old gibsonton. Over here on crystal street was a guy who had 15 big bears. Did the neighbors object . No. Because the neighbor was the guy who had two 24foot python snakes.

But in general there are no more freak shows. If i could find the freaks, id open a freak show tomorrow and make more money than ever. But where do you find the freaks . Theyre not here anymore.

The final resting place of the human cannonball and lobster . The carnivals are still thriving. Providing thrills to the bold Archbishop Murphy High School in everett, washington has a Football Team thats so good other schools refuse to play them. The three games murphy high has managed to play this season theyve won by a combined score of 1700. Carter evans has the story. Reporter the archbishop murphy wildcats are considered a powerhouse around these parts. Undefeated is an understatement. They managed to win their last three games without even stepping on the field. The archbishop murphy wildcats havent lost a game or even given up a single point this season. The school says its the result of hard work and dedication. Were not looking to hurt anybody in this game. Football by its nature can be a violent sport. Way. Reporter but the size and strength of archbishop players has some schools and parents worried their teams will get crushed. Literally. The kids were concerned about going against a team that was much larger, much more physical. Reporter Granite Falls high school forfeited tomorrows game against the wildcats. Its the third team to bow out this season. I dont care what other people think. Its our safety. Were playing, not them. Just one Football Player who weighs 250 pounds. Archbishop murphy has six, including three who weigh at least 300 pounds. Its like putting a vw bug up against a mack truck. Reporter stacy morriss son is a Granite Falls freshman and safety on the team. We have 15 seniors, and if any of those seniors get hurt our replacements are mostly freshmen and sophomores. That could mess up your entire season. Yeah. Its definitely a safety issue and its also strategic. Reporter there are growing calls around the league for archbishop murphy to play in a Catholic School has an advantage because it can draw bigger players from around the region, something Public Schools cant do. We have kids that come here for all variety of reasons. We have great academics here. We have great programs. And to be perceived as a school thats recruiting these huge kids, its just not reality. Reporter wednesday the wildcats wore their jerseys to a school press conference, hoping the next time theyll be suiting up for an actual game. Football. And thats the bottom line. Reporter archbishop murphy has three more games scheduled this month. Weve contacted all of those schools and so far the one weve heard back from still plans on taking the field. And thats the overnight news for this friday. For some of you the news continues. For others check back with us a little later for the morning the latest gayle take a peek the satellite. Since states offshore. It is offshore. Zoom in tight. This is Cape Canaveral right there. This is a little too close for comfort, okay . You could have a landfall within the next two, maybe three hours or so. Because right now 40 miles to the east southeast of Cape Canaveral and moving to the north northwest at 14 and could coast. As mark was staying. Curving around maybe transition is into a cat two and around georgia and cat one around South Carolina and big loop toward the bahamas. I got to point out this is the consensus cone not the only possibility. Just know a couple of models reliable models keeping it pushing to the north northeast we believe it will curve back down and the storm is a big deal with the storm surge. 7 to 11 foot possibili p st. Lucy to the savannah, georgia area and from there to charleston four to six feet. Rainfall the biggest rain in places like georgia and South Carolina and maybe North Carolina. These are projected numbers. Just projected. But the 9. 3 in savannah and 14. 3 in fayetteville. Because of the way the eye is situated and we are staying offshore the heaviest winds staying offshore. Right now looks like this becomes a storm. More about the water than the wind. Charlie, back to you. We will have full coverage of Hurricane Matthew coming up on cbs this morning. And scott pelley will be with the team of correspondents throughout the south. Our storm coverage continues right now on our streaming news network cbsn. This has been a cbs news special report. Im charlie who runs a group home for 15 residents with Cerebral Palsy and had to evacuate all of them. We need this facility not to flood. This is their home. We dont need it to flood. We need things to remain intact. Reporter another concern as the hurricane churns up the coast is the threat of tornadoes. Floridas governor has activated 3,500 National Guard troops to reporter im Mark Strassmann in Daytona Beach. Local officials worry the predicted ninefoot storm surge could collapse the main street pier. At sunset four bridges to this Barrier Island will close to arriving traffic. Most of the 20,000 residents here have left. But not all. Are you guys going to hang out or are you guys going to evacuate . Reporter michael chitwood, the Daytona Beach police chief, worries about the holdouts. And what would you call those people . Youre a fool. Because this hurricane is unlike any otherr reporter by chitwoods definition steve and judy lampe are fools. Theyll ride out matthew at home and hope sandbags and aluminum storm shutters will protect them. Weathers getting worse. I know. Reporter any second thoughts . Once the bridge closes its scary. You know, at 6 00. Reporter because then youre . Stuck. Reporter three blocks away les thompson decided this morning that staying was foolish. He and his wife, chris, will head inland to orlando to stay weve ever gone through anything like this. Certainly once in a lifetime. Reporter once the bridge is closed, holdouts will still be allowed to drive off the island but no one may drive on. Those holdouts have been warned if they call 911 after storm conditions get too dangerous emergency teams will not respond. Reporter im Omar Villafranca on exuma island in the bahamas. Hurricane matthew tore through p night. The wind and storm surge was so powerful, boats were smashed onto the shore. Hurricane winds over 140 Miles Per Hour ripped the roof off this house in the bahamas. We felt the wrath of matthew as the storm hit overnight in exuma. Beaches are empty. Homes are boarded up. And here on exuma island, most of the people are without 100 and rising. Two days after the hurricane hit the island nation as a category 4. In jereme, 145mileperhour winds decimated homes while flood waters swept away roads and bridges. The widespread damage prompted the haitian government to suspend sundays president ial election. Back in the bahamas crews immediately started clearing debris from the roads at daylight. Magnolia morely rode out the storm in the motel she manages. Blessed, that the eye passed to the south of us, and we did not get more intense conditions than we did. Reporter cleaning up the debris will take several days. Thousands of people in the bahamas are still without power, but many know the storm could have been much worse. Omar villafranca, cbs news, now lets go to eric fisher, chief meteorologist at our boston station wbz. Eric, wheres this headed . Well, scott, unfortunately weve spent the day watching matthew regain strength yet again. It is back to a category 4 hurricane. You can see those spiral bands as it moves through the bahamas and starts toak toward the state of florida. The inner eye wall right over freeport on grand bahamas, very destructive winds expected there. And it will start to make its way toward the coast of florida as we head into the overnight hours. Hurricane warnings are up from just north of miami all the way up the coastline. Thats a big factor in this storm, the fact that they go all the way up through the coast of South Carolina. And heres a look at the timeline. You see that center as it works its way toward the coast. It may move right along it, just off or just on, but the bottom line is the same. Very destructive winds moving winds, a big storm surge. If youre in an evacuation zone, heed those warnings. Wind is one thing. It is destructive in its own right. But storm surge is the number one killer. Theyre looking out for your safety. Listen to those warnings. The storm continues to track right along the coast as it heads up through south and North Carolina inundating it with very heavy rainfall, and thats one thing to watch. As we head toward the weekend, parts of eastern south and North Carolina have 10 inches of rain in the past month. When you add this much rain on top of it, scott, we could have a very significant flood event unfolding this weekend. Eric fisher, wbz. Eric, thank you very much. Most everything we know about Hurricane Matthew comes from the forecasters at the National Hurricane center in miami. Earlier today we spoke to the director, meteorologist rick knabb. I cant remember a hurricane on a track like this. I cannot either. One that has already impacted haiti and eastern cuba and is so many different land areas. It seems, though, with this track right up the coastline, that if the eye of the storm moves a little bit west you could take in millions more people very easily. Well, slight differences in the track of the hurricane could make a huge difference in terms of the magnitude of the impacts for particular locations. Even if the center of circulation stays just offshore, its easy for the hurricane to bring hurricaneforce winds onto the coast, even bring strong winds well inland. Every hurricane has its own dna, matthews going to write its own story. And i think folks in florida, georgia, and South Carolina could end up experiencing wind, water, or both. What kills most people in a hurricane . We know that historically, last several decades, with landfalling u. S. Tropical systems, 9 out of 10 people who have died have died as a result of water. The wind can be damaging and deadly too. All the hazards are in play in an extremely dangerous situation. You have enormous experience this storm that has surprised you . What has surprised me is how the scenario has set up such that so many people are in harms way. And its amazing how sometimes hurricanes seek out the worst possible paths in many ways and affect so many people. But thats the reality were faced with. Theres no denying it now. This is a serious threat to several states. Florida up through georgia and South Carolina. The time is now to act. You dont want to just hope the problem away. Dr. Rick knabb, the director of the National Hurricane center. Up the Atlantic Coast folks who live in georgia and South Carolina are clearing out of matthews path. Errol barnett is on tybee island. Reporter the hunters have called this Coastal Georgia Community home for 40 years. But today theyre leaving it all behind. The waters family is doing the same. I grabbed the boys baby girlfriend of mine made us and a couple important papers. And were out of here. Reporter fearing a storm surge of 10 to 12 feet, 15 inches of rain, and hurricaneforce winds, georgia joined South Carolina today in ordering mandatory evacuations for people on the coast. It also reversed 125 miles of eastbound lanes on interstate 16 to accommodate those leaving. I26 as businesses in charleston boarded up. Both states have deployed the National Guard and opened shelters for those with nowhere to run. We caught up with the mayor of tybee island, jason buelterman, just before he evacuated. You can replace your home. You can replace community buildings. But you cannot replace a human life. Reporter the mayor fears the shallow coastal shelf behind me could spell disaster if matthew as it is expected to do. He also tells me the last time a hurricane followed this exact track and gained strength, scott, it obliterated this entire island. Errol barnett, thanks. Well, the Worlds Largest cruise ship ports are closed. Some of those ships are riding out the storm at sea. And major airports in florida of course have shut down. Heres our transportation correspondent, kris van cleave. Of ft. Lauderdale left midafternoon, leaving workers little time to make final preparations for the looming storm. In West Palm Beach the checkin kiosks were wrapped in plastic. Judy baylyn managed to get a flight to washington today. We were the last night out. We were desperate but we were the last flight out. Reporter airports in miami, ft. Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and and orlando are closing. Canceled. George hobica tracks the airline industry. Not only do they not want the planes to be stuck in the path of the storm but they dont want them to be damaged. There are instances where planes actually get tipped off in a very strong wind. So theyre going to be moving the planes to a safe harbor. Reporter amtrak has also halted service in the southeast through at least saturday. In Orlando Disney world will be closed at least through friday. Just the fourth shutdown in the parks history. The airlines are offering waivers so you can make changes or get a refund without having to pay a fee. Scott, the airlines are hoping to slowly Begin Service as early as tomorrow afternoon but it could take a couple of days to get things back to normal and of course all of that depends on what kind of damage matthew brings. Kris van cleave, thanks. Our team will be back with the latest on the hurricane later in the broadcast. But right now lets go to Anthony Mason in new york with more of the days news. Anthony . Thanks, scott. Still ahead, how fast that new and up next, the president ial candidates prepare for a sunday candidates prepare for a sunday showdown. Sick, huh . Im good.

This one will be town meeting style, with the candidates taking questions from both the audience and the moderators in reporter after returning from a western campaign swing, donald trump spent part of thursday prepping for sundays second president ial debate, as he tries to right a listing campaign. Polls this week show Hillary Clinton ahead in battleground states. By five points in florida, four points in pennsylvania, three points in North Carolina, and 11 points in colorado. The race has tightened in ohio, but trump trails in michigan. Another midwest state he to make competitive. Complicating matters, a letter signed by 30 former republican members of congress that branded the gop nominee manifestly unqualified to be president and urged other republicans not to vote for this man, whose disgraceful candidacy is indefensible. The former lawmakers criticized trumps call for a temporary ban on muslim immigration, something running mate mike pence said trumps position now. Reporter the trumppence website still shows the press release announcing the proposed ban. While clinton also focused on debate prep, her running mate tim kaine tried to make the best of mixed reviews of his debate performance by needling pence for sidestepping many incendiary trump positions. I think theres a level of desperation in the Trump Campaign right now. Reporter clintons camp had to sidestep an embarrassment of its own, reversing a recent move to increase campaign ads on the weather channel. On twitter priebus said clinton was exploiting Hurricane Matthew for political gain and urged her to apologize. Trump is here in New Hampshire tore what amounts to a tuneup town hall in advance of sundays showdown with clinton. Anthony, on saturday trump will be in wisconsin at an event in the Congressional District of House Speaker paul ryan.

A data recorder shows the engineer applied the emergency brake less than a second before injured more than 100. Its hard for us here at cbs news to believe, but its been ten years since cameraman paul douglas and sound man james broe brolan were killed by a roadside bomb in baghdad. Senior correspondent Mark Phillips shared his thoughts at a Memorial Service today in london. Ten years, eh . If, to coin a phrase, a week is a long time in politics, whats ten years in the News Business . As far as paul and concerned, ten years seems like no time at all. Judging from our conversations, everybodys approach to this commemoration seems to be similar. Has it really been ten years . It seems like yesterday or last week. The shock was so deep and the loss so great that no amount of time can really diminish it. Ten years ago we promised we would never forget paul douglas and james brolan. Tonight we renew that vow. Back now in West Palm Beach, florida. This is the cafeteria of forest hill high school, one of nearly 50 shelters set up by the red cross to accept about 3,000 people who have answered the governors call to evacuate. Who are these people . These are people who have they were either in mobile homes or at vulnerable places. Theyre heeding the call from the authorities. Reporter Roberto Baltodano has volunteered for the red cross since 1992. Its the most important thing we can do is the peace of mind of knowing theyre not alone. Reporter megnalda espanina came with her 12yearold daughter jasraya. She said she brought the thing she needed the most. Top of her list, he had homework. Omar brother, sister, mom and dad. We live really close to the evacuation zone and to the shore. So we just wanted to come to a little bit more of a safer spot.

Hurricane andrew. They fed us for 17 days. So i came to know what the red cross does. Reporter and youve been volunteering ever since . We asked one man in the shelter if he feared losing his home. He told us, if i have my life, i am rich. And thats the overnight news. For the very latest developments on Hurricane Matthew, dont miss cbs this morning. And for all of us at cbs news all around the world, good night captioning funded by cbs its friday, october 7th, 2016. This is the cbs morning news. Breaking news. Hurricane matthew slams florida, gi conditions to the sunshine state. Good morning from the studio 57 newsroom at cbs news headquarters here in new york. Good to be with you. Im annemarie green. This morning, Hurricane Matthew is pounding the florida coast with a potentially deadly mix of wind and rain that is expected to last most of the day. Here is the latest. It is now a category three storm with sustained winds 120 Miles Per Hour. Hurricane force winds extend 60 miles from its center. Matthew is expected to remain a dangerous storm as it heads north and will be near or over the georgia and South Carolina coast tomorrow. At least 330 people are reported dead in three caribbean nations, most in haiti. More than 200,000 florida residents have already lost power. States of emergency have been declared in florida, georgia, and South Carolina. The wind and rain picked up near port st. Lucie overnight but the potential storm surge is the main concern. Dangerous storm surge could raise water levels by 11 feet in some coastal areas and producing devastating flooding. Greg angel, of our West Palm Beach station, wpec is in vero beach where flooding is a major concern. What are conditions like this morning, greg . Reporter good morning, as you see just from our shot, a little bit of moving around. We are, right now, in the midst of Hurricane Force wind. We are now here in vero beach. In Indian River County along the east coast. I want to show you behind me here. You see boats tied up here. This is part of the intracoastal. The boats are doing a little bit of bobbing. This is actually good because looking at the position of the storm out in the atlantic, we could of definitely gotten a more targeted hit from this storm and the damage could have however, the concern is far from over. Let me walk over here and kind of show you. This is the intracoastal and low lying area and the water is already creeping up to the edge. We will have Tropical Storm force winds through this morning and heavy wind will continue and push the water inward and creating a very potential for the surge and the flooding. Even though this is something we devastation doesnt look as catastrophic as it potentially could be, we have more time of experience in this winds, 95 to 115 Miles Per Hour, much stronger than that in some gusts. But it is a nighttime storm that adds to part of the danger. So it is going to be a very busy morning once the storm moves out of the way for assessment to start beginning. Reporting live in vero beach, greg angel, cbs news. Greg. Stay safe. Marlie hall is in Central Florida where conditions are much better inland. Marlie, good morning. Reporter good morning, annemarie. Matthew is expected to come ashore or very close to it, later today. The florida coast is bracing for a long day of punishing wind, rain, and storm surge. Overnight, the outer bands of rain and roaring winds. The storm surge from the category three storm sent boats in this harbor rocking sidetoside. Its really quite a sight. Reporter storm shutters were ripped off the front of businesses in West Palm Beach. In Daytona Beach, police were left patrolling streets as most residents listened to evacuation warnings. We can rebuild homes and businesses but we cant restore businesses a life. The storm is a monster. Reporter some People Living on the coast who couldnt get out of the town sought safety in red cross shelters. This one inside a school cafeteria. There were either mobile homes or vulnerable places and heeding the call from authorities. Reporter conditions here in orlando will intensify the next few hours. Matthew is expected to slam florida all day with Hurricane Force winds and then turn towards georgia. The state joined florida in ordering mandatory evacuations, reversing a lane of traffic on this highway yesterday to accommodate the exodus. South carolina did the same as this beach bar stayed open for one last party. We are closed after tonight. Reporter matthew is expected to move out to sea this weekend. The last category three storm to hit the u. S. Was wilma back in 2005 and it killed five people. Marlie hall in orlando, thank you so much, marlie. Even veteran forecasters dont recall a hurricane like matthew that took aim at so many heavily populated areas. Scott pelley talked about the power and the perils of this storm with director of the National Hurricane center rick knaab. I cant remember a hurricane on a track like this. I cannot either, one that has already impacted haiti and eastern cuba and is impacting the bahamas. So many different land areas. Reporter it seems, though, with this track right up the coastline, that if the eye of the storm moves a little bit west, you could take in millions of more people very easily. Well, slight differences in the track of the hurricane could make a huge difference in terms even if the center of circulation stays just offshore, its easy for the hurricane to bring Hurricane Force winds on to the coast, even bring strong winds well inland. Every hurricane has its own dna, its own characteristics. Matthew will write its own story and i think folks in florida, georgia, and South Carolina could end up experiencing wind, water, or both. Reporter what kills most people in a hurricane . We know that historically, last several decades with landfall in u. S. Tropical sy have died have died as a result of water. The wind can be damaging and deadly too. All of the hazards are in play in an extremely dangerous situations. Reporter you have enormous experience and history at this but i wonder, is there anything about this storm that has surprised you . What has surprised me is how the scenario has set up such that so many people are in harms way and its amazing how sometimes hurricanes seek out the worst possible paths in many faced with. There is no denying it now. This is a serious threat to several states. Florida up through georgia and South Carolina. The time is now to act. You dont want to just hope the problem away. As it moves up the coast, matthew is expected to be near or over the coast of georgia and South Carolina by tomorrow. Along with florida and South Carolina, president obama declared a state of emergency in georgia. There is a mandatory Evacuation Order for georgias six coastal counties, affecting more than 1. 5 million people. Highways have been turned into one way roadways to speed up the evacuation and along the coast, businesses and homes are being boarded up. Georgia has not had a direct hit from a hurricane in more than a century. In South Carolina, utility crews are preparing for widespread power outages, but with 8 to 14 inches of rain
