0 i m worried about the impact on families. the election will take care of itself next week. right now the number one priority is make sure we re saving lives. my question is: where was president obama a month-and-a-half ago when four of our americans were locked down, pinned down, about to be assassinated? he was in las vegas campaigning, picking up chec checks. be fair, maybe he learned something from a month-and-a-half ago. bob: a couple of things going on. one, early voting has been canceled in both ohio and maryland and virginia. three states. now that is going to have some impact. not good for obama. romney what to cancel appearances in ohio, which were important to him. he did go to iowa, which indicates how close iowa really is. we ll talk about that a little bit, him getting in the des moines register endorsement, which is important i think. the other thing romney decided to do is do fund raising in the effected states which make sense. in the end, the president of the united states is commander-in-chief. he gets to take center stage. it only helps him. kimberly: dana? dana: from a political standpoint, romney s e-mail that went out to i m not on the list but a friend sent it to me saying don t donate to our campaign, if you have time and resources available send it to the red cross. check on your neighbors. from a media standpoint, this storm is rightly going to stake center stage. my sister is in colorado. if you re in colorado, swing state or any of the other swing states, the ads are unbearable in terms of the amount of negative ads. i think both of the campaigns would be smart to take negative ads off the airwaves right now. my sister said it s so annoying because she wants to watch what is happenin happeninh the storm. every time they cut to commercial break, back to politics. kimberly: bill hememer said in ohio such influx of the political ads. it s crucial. and very close. slight romney lea now with the rasmussen poll. people could get turned off and not want to vote for somebody, if they are bombarded with negative ads. do you think romney made the right call with the timing of suspending the campaigning? greg: i guess so. makes sense. more about the media using the storm as a way to pollster obama. bolstering obama through like a full charm offensive. first, he will be there with the shres rolled up. then the tide will be gone. then the jacket by the third day. the fema offensive in boxers doing a briefing. i think a lot of this coverage is frightening. to the kids at home, don t be scared. monsters in the sky only come down to eat you if you talk back to your parents. eric: you make a good point, bob, turn-out. clearly across the board, you hear people saying a high turn-out would benefit president obama. bob: yeah. eric: a storm will put a damper on turnout. bob: probably not seven days from tomorrow. but damper on turn-out for people voting early. kimberly: maryland. bob: they re turned out already. dana: people who don t have power they don t want to take call from the phone bank. the last thing they want. they want to hear from the power company. bob: can i make a point about the negatives. i agree that it would make sense to put the positive ads on. remember so few people out there undecided right now. they are undecided about voting against somebody. not for somebody. thosthose are targeted to them. dana: a political thought to look to 2016, there are two governors right now talked about for 2016. they are both at the center of the storm. chris christie of new jersey and new york s cuomo. greg: we can t forget that bill clinton today said, what did he say? speaking of storms, if you don t vote for if you vote for romney that s a bigger storm. bigger disaster than sandy. i would say that bill clinton is a threat to anyone named sandy. kimberly: okay, than say tute political note we move on. new reports that contradict the administration story about the libya terror attack. we have details about what the lawmakers were told in a briefing, just two days after the attack. we are closely watching hurricane sandy. we have the latest as thecoast e megastorm. stay with us. starting to turn around because of business people like you. and regions is here to help. with the experience and service to keep things rolling. from business loans to cash management, we want to be your partner moving forward. so switch to regions. and let s get going. together.
