has come up multiple times. katie can, i want to hear from you. the notion that no one was talking about illegal immigration until donald trump is ridiculous. it s been an issue in the months since the 2012 campaign. i m not going to defend what president obama said. his policy on immigration has been a disaster. i do think we need border security. all of our candidates are calling for border security. but the rhetoric and the words that donald trump is communicating are a sure fire way to lose on election day in november because what he s talking about doesn t just turn off hispanic voters. it turns off young voters, family voters, it s a recipe for electoral disaster. that s coming from somebody who ran the romney message. who had a lot more votes than donald trump. we ll see when donald wins. it s like we re having an
strangled now by the regulation and you roll your eyes but that s what what are what are the regulations? you said it was effective. no, no. what i m saying messenger, also, is very for. and rubio is an amazing mess ensxwrer great communicator and that s why he is getting attack because if it was mediocre sort of response people would not care. he looked very mediocre. that s your opinion. 50% of the population thought rubio was awesome. he talks about things in a way that really bring it to real life. had comes from you hi it is the messenger. you think fundamentally basically the romney message which this was this is different vessel can work. you can characterize it all you want. obama said the exact same thing in the state of the union. same old same old. basically, yes. he just won an election. the thing is i know.
majority of the states will win. the romney challenge is to make sure his get out the vote effort maximizes every republican independent is for them. the obama campaign has been doing this a long long time. the thing i am fascinated by is every single national poll from ras muse ento gallup to george washington university political battle ground poll the fox poll are dead even. usually the person liked the most highest favorable rating wins. that s dead even. independents are dead even. it is one of these whose mott el is right. more seniors vote than young people the romney team wins. the romney message is up beat. the obama message is kind of negative. don t let these bad guys come in office again. with regard to these polls they weren t all in lock step
in charge. now that s the message. you have to decide whether you think that s a good message. i mean, i was watching this this storm has been tough on me being out on the road. i was in ohio and wisconsin yesterday. i ll be in florida today, north carolina, and virginia tomorrow. but my neighbors are all without power. my daughter and son-in-law s apartment building was vacated in new york. there are lots of new yorkers who are worried about when if ever they ll get back in their homes and they re supposed to actually vote in a presidential election in just a few days? in some places we can t stand one up in new york, new jersey, and connecticut. so this isn t very this is a very difficult time. i m just sick of all this big
the district, too much of a national figure. this happens when you try to be a national star and look like you re not tending to the home front. it does and it could. the district and redistricting got about a plus four republican benefit so a slightly improved district for michele. she has a history as luke said of running tight races. she has a few scares where she won by three or four points. that is probably the likely outcome here. your point is valid. i want to talk to you and i want you to both hit on this point. melissa, i just had sessions, the fact is you talk to the strategists on both sides and one thing everybody is sure of, with the presidency, the battle to control the senate controls the house. republicans are going to get re-elected to control the house. what is the message voters are sending if they re-elect a democratic president and senate and republican house? i think part of it is just as you were leading in with michele bachmann. the fact is voters collecti
