wake up. that is your first line. "wake up, but don't touch that snooze. it's time for "fox & friends" with the real news." [captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute -- www.ncicap.org -- brian: it's an off-year election but it feels like an on-year election. steve: it does. there's a headline in the "washington times." "g.o.p. eyes three-state sweep in key contest." there's a possibility they could win the gubernatorial races in new jersey the commonwealth of virginia, and a key district in new york that historically has gone conservative on the republican side but this time could actually vote for a conservative party member. brian: and you say great state of new jersey gretchen. you know why? you're not leaving because they pay you a tax if you leave. there's a tax for people who leave new jersey which might be the reason -- steve: what tax? brian: there's a you want to leave in pay me. it's almost like the mob. gretchen: taxes are going to be a very important reason why people go to the polls today, specifically in new jersey virginia, and upstate new york. let's take a listen to the candidates in new jersey jon corzine, the incumbent, the democrat. and chris christie, the republican challenger. >> you know it's an important election when our president comes here three times over four months. >> will get the votes he's going to get. i'm not worried about it. my job is to get as many i can get. brian: you know it's an important election and you know you're doing poorly, governor corzine, when the president of the united states has to give some of his best poem to your campaign and appear three times in the midst of some very critical decisions. steve: but mr. christie touched on something important. the key to new jersey hangs in how many votes chris daggett, the third party candidate can siphon off. latest shows he's polling at about 12% which could doom chris christie's chances. gretchen: i thought maybe daggett would drop out of the race and throw his support in one or either of the directions which would probably mean a win for chris christie. let's take a look at the latest polls. this quinnipiac university poll has chris christie two percentage points ahead of jon corzine. believe four polls were released within the last couple of hours. all are within the manchin of error -- margin of error. some have corzine up by one or two points. some have christie up by one or two points. there are more registered democrats in the state of new jersey than republicans. so the one word that's important today is turnout. who will turn out? brian: and a lot of people think the minority community will not turn out in the numbers because barack obama is not running. he got everybody out. he got 12,000 people in newark, new jersey. if they don't come out, governor corzine is in a lot of trouble. that's why he closed a 14% gap ex-made it a dead heat. he seems to have lost momentum. can we talk about new york district 23? steve: absolutely. this is the crazy case where the republican candidate dropped out a couple of days ago and then threw her support behind the democrat. then you've got the fellow who was energized by the tea party movement, doug hoffman who had just been a regular guy, as he described himself. and now yesterday up in the 23rd district of new york, joe biden was stumping on behalf of the challenger. also, hoffman -- also, joe biden yesterday suggested that rush limbaugh had, quote, hand-picked hofman to run. and hoffman yesterday called that notion ridiculous. he said, "i've never spoken to rush limbaugh. i have no idea where he got that information." gretchen: you have to say hat's off to a guy, or gal who decides, hey, i'm just going to get into political office because that's what we need in this country. if that's what those tea parties did to invigorate the democratic feeling from within the gut of all of us, then great. then absolutely great, because so many people are sick and tired of the people who we continue to elect into office. talk about term limits. thinking about some of these congresswomen and congressmen who have been there for years and years. this could rejuvenate the interest in politics within our nation. brian: the republican that dropped out had a democratic position on abortion, democratic position on gay rights, was for union card check and voted for the stimulus package so that sound very much like a democrat which is why she endorsed in leaving the democratic candidate there. the memo to the republicans from the vice president of the united states was, hey, moderates, come to us, we're much more tolerant. gretchen: he said hoffman is a right-wing clone of former alaska governor sarah palin. and speaking of sarah palin, a lot of people got phone calls in the state of virginia and they heard from sarah palin. and a lot of people were surprised. even the candidate that she was stumping for because she was stumping for the republican candidate there, bob mcdonnell. but apparently he asked her to come onboard at one point a couple of months ago and she determined she was not going to do that. now suddenly she's on what we call these robo calls. brian: originally the word was mcdonnell wasn't sure if governor palin would help because she's more of a value candidate. the experts say he now has a huge lead. 54-41%. he's up. he says i'm talking about money, about roads, about education and governor palin maybe talks a little bit more about traditional val yiens conservatism -- values and conservatism and feld as though i think it may be a mixed message so she went out to put these calls together. is it necessary? he's already got a 14-point lead. think she could be used in the new york -- gretchen: nothing she ever does is predictable. this is just another example of not being asked to do it, did it. i guess the voters will have to decide whether or not that was a good idea. steve: as long as she doesn't call during dinner, that's fine. you know those robo calls when you got to get up from the table, go over to the phone. oh, it's sarah palin again. brian: it's the long pause before anything goes on. that's when i know i can hang up now. steve: in the state of virginia 25% have already voted ab sen sea.b.a.sen tee, more than -- vd absentee, more than 2005. as brian mentioned, with the polls right now, it does look like it could be a big night for the republicans again in virginia. gretchen: we do have other news for the day. we're going over to the taliban. they say they are the real winners of the afghanistan election claiming the cancellation of the runoff proves their recent attacks were successful. the taliban specifically pointing to last week's deadly attacks on the united nations guest house as something that disrupted the process. that attack left nine people dead. meantime, president obama did call afghan president hamid karzai to congratulate him on his election victory and says he wants afghanistan ready to defend itself when international troops withdraw. gretchen: police need your help finding this missing baby. 7-month-old shannon was last seen in her florida home when her parents went to bed saturday. her parents reported her missing late sunday morning. shannon is two feet tall, weighing 11 pounds, brown hair and blue eyes. if you have any information, call the number on your screen. brian: what a nightmare. gretchen: the 20-year-old woman allegedly run over by her own father for becoming too westernized has unfortunately passed away now. she had been in the hospital in arizona for the past few weeks. family members say her father hit her with his s.u.v. because she wasn't living up to traditional iraqi values. police arrested her father after he tried to flee to mexico and then to london. the former gitmo detainees just transferred to the pacific nation of p palau speaking out. they were told it would be a place to study english and look for a job. since arriving, the six chinese muslims have been meeting with officials there. the president of palau is scheduled to give them a tour of the island. those are your favorite people down in gitmo, the -- brian: who get to go to bermuda and now palau what are they going to do there? i'm not sure. steve: it's interesting the u.s. government told them it's a temporary stop so don't buy a house. brian: where are we sending them next? steve: good question. where is hillary clinton be? she is busy. hillary clinton was on greta's program last night. and just like her boss, barack obama, who continually blames george bush for everything that is not going his way, hillary last night blamed george bush for letting al qaeda slip through our fingers. listen to this. >> al qaeda left afghanistan and we let them out. we should have taken them out when we had the chance in 2001 and 2002, and they escaped. and they escaped into pakistan so to that extent, you know if we had done a better job going into afghanistan and captured the people who attacked us or killed them, you know, we would be maybe in a different position. brian: that's a great point. i don't know if we cut it off, but she might want to say and my husband should have taken them out and maybe after the cold bombing -- and when he was in africa and could have capped toured him -- instead of calling saudi arabia, maybe my husband should have grabbed him did we cut that off? gretchen: i agree with you, brian. but i do believe that even president bush may agree with what hillary clinton said there. think if he had to do it over again, he would have loved to have captured osama bin laden. i think a lot of people said some people screwed up. i'm not so sure she's saying a distruth but your point well taken about her husband. brian: no one said let's let bin laden go maybe in retrospect the pakistanies shouldn't have been paid off, maybe the special forces should have been allowed to go in. but it wasn't president bush going, let's not let the special forces in, we don't have fresh face paint for them. it was the situation on the ground. there's a bunch of general who's wrote a bunch of books about. it's more complex than we should have stopped them. do you want to let al qaeda out? there's also the mysterious plane that flew into pack -- afghanistan as the invasion got closer and a whole bunch of people got out. we don't even know why they got out who put that plane in why it was allowed to fly. but there is controversy there. if she's going to keep look back -- even though she did a wonderful job in pakistan, letting the pakistanies have it the way she can and made so well, i thought she was way out of line look back again instead of looking forward. steve: she is looking forward at the job of secretary of state. last night she also told greta that she enjoys her job because america is important in the world and she's helping. listen. >> why do you like this job? i'm not kidding. why do you like this job? it is so complicated. >> it is. it's really complicated and it's very hard. first of all, i believe that the united states has an essential role to play in the world. there's not a problem we can walk away from that we have to prioritize because we can't be all things to all people. but we have to be out there trying and working to solve problems and convincing people to come to our side and understand how we see the world. and i believe it's absolutely critically important. probably more complicated today than it's been in the past. but even more important today. steve: there you go. another good reason to always watch fox news channel at night. you get all sides of all the stories. greta last night with that exclusive with hillary. gretchen: an organization that represents thousands of doctors. up next, the five reasons why members say they cannot support the baucus. remember that? the senate health care bill. brian: that has yet to merge. and a mother's anguish caught on a courtroom camera. brian: that story behind the attack coming your way. # gretchen: a new york mom accused of tipping off suspected terrorist zazi. well, the feds were after him. that's what he told that guy, apparently. he has pled not guilty now. facing eight years behind bars for allegedly lying to f.b.i. agents. zazi faces charges he plotted to blow up trains in new york city. ground beef being recalled because of a possible e. coli contamination. the beef was sold in eight states from massachusetts to north carolina. the company says the meat was packaged between september 14 and 16. so be sure to check your freezer for that. steve: while most doctors support some form of medical reform, a growing number are seriously concerned with the bills being pushed through congress. they say these proposals may jep diedz quality care and compromise their profession. brian: is one of those people dr. zuckerman? steve: yes. brian: a group of doctors that oppose the doctors' bill. doctor, as we pointed out before, they're still merging two bills. but what bugs you about the baucus bill? >> the bill that's currently in the senate or that will be brought to the senate floor we think has significant problems with respect to the impact on medicare beneficiaries. medicare beneficiaries function under what's called a sustainable growth rate. that's how physicians are are reimbursed. now, that has been a flawed formula for a long time now. brian: you're not getting paid for the services. you don't feel you're getting paid enough money for the services you're rendering. >> this is about having a system that reflects the cost of practicing medicine. if you look at what medicare reimbursements have been over the last 20 years, they've gone continually down. they don't even reflect the impact of inflation. that becomes increasingly more difficult for physicians to practice. steve: let's go ahead and put up -- we've got some graphics that show some of the things that you and your associates are worried about. why you oppose it. you're against medicare, its of the commission. what is the commission. and what would it do? >> a medicare commission is an appointed group of individuals that would make decisions about reimbursement, about issues related to medicare oversight. steve: doctors or bureaucrats? >> it's unclear at this point. however, these are functions and responsibility that fall under the heading of congress now. so you're taking it out of the hands of elected officials and putting it in the hands of appointed officials. we think that's problematic. brian: it might be someone, oh, he's 81, needs a new hip. >> it's more the broader policy issues. brian: let's look at eat thing that bothers you about it. the medicare fees need updating. and the next one would be against the absence of medical liability reform. steve: you got to fix the malpractice situation in this country. >> absolutely. this has been a continuing problem. there are states in this country where you have successfully enacted liability reform. brian: texas. of. >> texas. so physicians were moving out. access to care was a problem. you put in liability reform, physicians move in, access becomes less of a problem. it becomes morrow bust health care system. >> and guess what is the yum brella. you're not happy with medicare paying out. it's paying less and less and moving money. so the medicare system is not working for anybody. >> it needs to be redone, absolutely. one point with medicare reform. $54 billion is potentially saveable. that's a conservative estimate. brian: because of fraud. >> defensive medicine, anything you want to call it. that's the impact. and it's significant. steve: dr. joseph zuckerman, we thank you for joining us live today. straight ahead on this tuesday's telecast, president obama was elected one year ago today on the promise of change. so where's the change? a fair and balanced debate, both sides, next. brian: then did goldman sachs secretly bet the housing market would crash, walking away with billions of your dollars? result of a special investigation straight ahead. steve: in less than an hour governor mike huckabee joins us live. brian: i've met him in person. #ñ gretchen: can you believe it? tomorrow already marks the one-year anniversary of the 2008 presidential election? and many are wondering when we can expect the change we were promised by president obama. is he falling short of his expectations or living up to them? here for a fair and balanced debate, bernard whitman, and a conservative columnist. all right. i'll refer to bernard first, the democrat on the couch. has barack obama lived up to his expectations of promising change? >> absolutely. he's done an extraordinary job given the fact that he inherited an economy on the brink of disaster. he stabilized the financial markets. he's created or saved 640,000 jobs through the economic stimulus plan without a single republican vote. and that's on the way to creating or saving a million jobs. because of that, the economy this year in the second half of 2009 is expected to grow by 3% compared to a 6.2% contraction when he came into office. so i would say by those measures an extraordinary achievement. that's not even to mention -- remember the stress tests for the banks, those 19 banks doomed to failure and nationalization? today all of them are alive and well and breathing on their own. many have repaid the money from tarp and the taxpayers made a profit as a result. gretchen: those job numbers are debatable, which is one thing i want to point out. and also, when you infiltrate companies with a lot of government money, isn't that how you grow? and what does that say about the future of those companies needing mormon? >> right. it's a little bit of artificial demand. it was done in the auto industry as well. think we're going to see there's going to be a huge falldown in the next few months. the problem isn't so much what hasn't he done but what was promised. he was supposed to come in and do a great many things in a very short period of time. he was supposed to bring troops out of afghanistan, bring troops home. he was supposed to pass health care reform, close gitmo, end military tribunals, restore science to its rightful place, whatever that means. and he's really fallen short. when you look at the intangibles, the idea that this was supposed to be a transparent white house, the idea that he was supposed to be a uniter and in fact he's been incredibly polarizing, i think it becomes even more clear that voters might be thinking they got played a little. gretchen: let's take a look at some of the promises then that the president has broken. reduced spending, national debt, government transparency, no health insurance mandates. we should have in par parenthess yet on that. >> i think this president came into office when 10% to 15% of the public thought the country was headed in the right direction. we still have a ways to go, but today 40% to 45% think we're headed on the right track. we're about to pass comprehensive health care reform which for the first time will finally cut costs, improve the quality of care, and expand coverage which is something that presidents for literally 100 years have been trying to do since teddy roosevelt a republican, first proposed it. gretchen: so in the spirit of free and balanced, the promises the president has kept. sent two to three brigades to afghanistan, foreclosure prevention and outreach to the muslim world. >> i think worst of all has been the systematic dismantling of the c.i.a. i think that's going to be the larger problem that's going to be so hard to undo over the next few years. dangerous for the c.i.a. and dangerous for the country. gretchen: a very interesting conversation. thanks for joining us. let's check out what steve and brian are doing in the greenroom. steve: thank you very much. brian: we'll tell you what's coming up. i'll give you half of what you want. steve: weighs continue on on -- as we continue on, coming up, a mother goes after her daughter's accused killer. and the mother says more strubl ahead. steve: and you, the taxpayer, forked over billions to chrysler. you expected to get that money back. right? the answer next. steve: don't hold your breath. happy birthday to our pal dennis miller, the comedian and talk show host and feature on "the factor" turns 56 today. sing it. >> a one. a two. a three. ♪ take me out to the ball game ♪ the great taste of splenda no calorie sweetener and added a little fiber?

"monday night football." the perfect saints take on the almost perfect falcons. several turnovers, including drew breec --drew brees fumble . the saints would go on to win 28-14. but atlanta would come back. matt ryan, who's been really good, is good again. 35-27 the saints remain undefeated. listen closely and watch even closer. it's one of the craziest tackles you'll ever see. semi-pro football. the football player returning a punt gets flattened by his own teammate. comes out of no where forgets what team he's on and tackles him. this team is a developmental team designed to help improve players' skills so h they can go to the next level. steve: i don't think he's going to make it. brian: he couldn't tackle the other guy so he decided to tackle the other guy. steve: i think he's embarrassed. brian: looking on the bright side. he tackles well. gretchen: it's hard to find a bright side in this story other than if you work for ford. ford did not receive any bailout cash. they turned the company around and were not with their hand like this looking for a turnout. brian: they knew they were saving for a rainy day. gretchen: they reported they made $1 billion in the third quarter. a lot of that could be due to cash for clunkers. so i worry a little bit about their fourth quarter earnings. but in the meantime, what about the money by gave to g.m. and chrysler? $81 billion. interestingly enough, they probably will never pay back any of that money to the government. steve: here's what it hinges on. the g.a.o., the government watch dog, general accounting office, what they said yesterday in a report was there's a real good possibility that the taxpayers would never get that money paid back. the way they figure it is this. for the federal government to get the $58 billion that we lent to general motors, general motors would have to have a market share value, a market value of the company, of $66 billion. right now they don't have anywhere near that. but if general motors is able to boost its value to $66 billion, the united states federal treasury will get the money back. now, they are thinking about having an i hope i hope, an initial -- an i.p.o., an initial public offering as early as next year. but the g.a.o. says, slow down, you're not healthy enough yet. brian: the g.a.o. says that's not ok with us. the governor owns 60% of general motors and the union basically owns the rest of it. so can the union run a company for profit? we'll have to see. steve: we better hope they can. brian: and chrysler, a 9% stake in chrysler. gretchen: i was shocked at that number. chrysler is doing worse than g.m. yet the government only owns 9.5%. is that because of fiat? brian: fiat bought it so the government didn't have to do as much. i feel responsible because i'm half italian. get it torkts together, fiat. gretchen: goldman sachs, there's a story released yesterday that had a lot to do with betting on the u.s. housing market, betting that it would crash? dagen is here to explain. this is a huge accusation. >> it is. it's based on what is an in-depth series, gretchen, the newspaper company has done about goldman sachs. to boil it down, essentially goldman sachs was selling tens of billions of dollars in subprime mortgage securities to investors. and at the same time selling those securities off of its own book, getting out of a bet that it had placed. and also hedging its risk in advance of a housing market downturn it raises the issue of what is legal. what does an investment bank have to tell their investors? how much do you have to disclose? it's something, frankly, that will probably be played out in the court for years to come because there are at least a number of civil lawsuits that have been filed by investors against goldman. brian: so the government had to give money -- those are one of the nine banks so he gave the money on an institution that's already made money over the reason for the collapse. that was the housing market. gretchen: that's right. >> goldman sachs got billions of dollars along with other firms and it has paid that money back. but then we get into potential conflict of interest. remember han hank paulson ran goldman sarchgz at one point. there were many many other people working in the government. it just all remains to be seen. did the american taxpayers essentially bail this company out? and the answer is, yes. brian: we're going to follow that and watch fox business channel. >> thanks. steve: goldman does have friends in high places. meanwhile, they may be local elections but they have national implications. a closer look at the races that could shape washington. gretchen: and neil keating, he lost his firefighter brother in the september 11 attacks. yesterday he got to pull the u.s.s. new york in to place. this amazing ship built from the steel from the world trade center towers. he's going to tell us what it was like. brian: and we'll be doing our show from there on thursday. time for our "quote of the day." brian: e-mail us with the right answer and you could win some fox stuff that we've used, but it looks like new. what's our favorite part of honey bunches of oats? the sparkly flakes. the honey-baked bunches! the magic's in the mix. my favorite part? eating it. honey bunches of oats. taste the joy we put in every spoonful. we call the bunches in honey bunches of oats the prize in the box. well, now there's a prize inside the prize. pecans! pecans! baked into crunchy oat bunches. taste the delicious surprise in every spoonful. new honey bunches of oats with pecan bunches. beautiful. brian: important elections today including governor races in new jersey and virginia. we have two reports now starting in falls church, virginia. sarah? >> you know, it's very interesting, brian, steve and gretchen. this is a state that everybody was look at the fact that in november this went for president barack obama, a democrat, the first time a presidential candidate, a democrat, won since 1964. so now everybody's wondering what is going on here in virginia? of course, the democrat here, creigh deeds, has been trailing in the polls. a double-digit lead as the republican, bob mcdonnell, has had for some time now. everyone is wondering what is going to happen today. we talked with some voters here as they were coming out. a lot of them are saying, you know what? this is a different election. this is a different candidate that we're talking about here, in different times since president obama has been in office. there's been some people in virginia that have kind of looked unfavorably at some of the things, the performance for president obama. so at this point we're look at this could possibly go for a republican here. we're just going to have to wait and see until the end of the day here. brian: there could be a double-digit victory for the republican. meanwhile, the new jersey could come down to the wire as the three caned dates make a -- candidates makes a final ush. you have jon corzine and chris christie. they're in a statistical tie. and the third party candidate will be the spoiler. what's happening behind you as we turn out to our reporter? >> we're here in hoboken. the incumbent governor jon corzine just cast his ballot here in his hometown. we've been seeing a lot of people already come in here and cast their ballots. the polls have only been opened about 45 minutes. the candidates are hoping for a big turnout. this is a very close race. the polls have showed both governor corzine and his republican challenger, chris christie, neck and neck. and corzine has pulled out all the stops here. president obama has dom campaign for him as has the vice president. also, former president bill clinton, they've all been here for him. chris christie's had his share of big republicans, including rudy giuliani. and now they also have the independent candidate, chris daggett, who has been making waves in this race and causing a little concern for both campaigns. they're saying that he could take up some of their votes from them. he's been getting about 12% of the votes in recent polls. so we'll see how this works out. back to you. >> it's going to be a late night until we find out who's going to be the winner. that is just my hunch. now, judge napalitano joins us. very few people know more about the new jersey governor's race, the senate races, the local politics than you, judge, because you call it home and grew up there. >> i was involved in new jersey politics before i went on the bench. when you're on the bench, you can't be involved in politics. but they don't just knock on your door and say do you want to be a judge? you are involved in politics before you get there. i know governor corzine. and i know chris christie. this is a real profound choice for the people in the state of new jersey. brian: you say this is the most important race in new jersey in a generation. >> i do here's the reason why. the labor unions in new jersey are on the cusp of literally taking over the legislature. that is, having a majority of voters -- of members of the legislature be holden to the labor unions. and the new new jersey senate president who will start in january is an official of the afl/c.i.o. if a liberal democrat is in the governor's office as well as this labor union attitude amongst the legislature, taxes will go up, money will continue to be wasted in the schools, and the labor unions will continue to get all kinds of benefits. abortion will be permitted up to the moment of birth. new jersey is the only state that permits abortion up to the moment of birth. and this sort of agenda that has been ruining new jersey with high taxes, high unemployment will continue. brian: if four of every five democrats are happy with president obama in new jersey why is it chris christie -- why is chris christie doing so well? >> the governor doesn't like his job. the governor didn't like his job when he was head of goldman sachs when he was a united states senator from new jersey. he doesn't like his job now. he can't get along with the democrats in the legislature. it's an assault on his manhood if he doesn't get re-elected. but there are all kinds of rumors going around that if he gets re-elected, he's going to ask president obama to give him an ambassadorship. yesterday the governor dispatched new jersey state lawyers to go into court in philadelphia to block fox from polling people as they leave the polls. brian: that is incredible. great job as usual. straight ahead, a brother honors his foirlt brother who lost his life -- firefighter brother who lost his life in the september 11 attacks. he pulled the u.s.s. new york made from world trade center steel. next to share that story. . . gretchen: now it's time for our answer to the quote of the day. who said it? i actually knew this one today. brian: did you? gretchen: that should go down as once in a lifetime: the sean jessica simpson, talking about the new melrose place show on the cw network and her sister ashley's role and she was canned from that show. her sister was stick up for her. the winner is mike. steve: way to go. there has been a provision inserted into one of the health care bills on the senate side by orrin hatch, the senator from utah with support from john kerry and before he died, with the support of ted kennedy. and what it essentially would do is put christian science prayer treatments on the same footing as clinical medicine. it would also prohibit discrimination against religious and spiritual health care. with christian scientists they do a lot of playing, hoping that people will be cured. brian: a lot of time foregoing medical treatment, correct? steve: exactly right. every once in a while there will be a terrible case where somebody dies and then whoever prayed for them would be brought up on charges. this essentially would give them -- release them of any liability if it were to pass. gretchen: cover prayer as a treatment. there has been a lot of amazing studies out there whether you are christian scientist or christian or muslim or buddhist that any kind of prayer helps a person to get better. tons of doctors have come on this show to say whether it goes. whether it should be a state or federally son sored situation is a different story. does violate that church-state separation. brian: do you get reimbursed for the $20 that you put out? that is why it would go on the books and maybe alleviate insurance companies from being sued or parents from being sued in the future. joining us now a guy -- gretchen: a pastor who might know something about it. great you were around. >> just happening to be showing up. >> in the neighborhood and here i am. brian: hurts my feelings. roaming around the naked. >> i came into the upscale setting in i don't know when with the nicest person on earth. brian: better than that dumb studio d. steve: talking about the provision, prayer treatment -- could they be paid for if government takes over the health care situation? >> the real question is, first of all, if anything you have to have sound science behind t i think prayer works but i don't know that you have to pay to pray. i don't know anybody who says i'm not going to pray for you unless you pay me to do so. not one someone pays a clinic to do for them like you are going to the doctor. something that truly imunited states from the spirit of one's heart. i can't see a person going down to the drive-in prayer clinic and puts in american express and say. hail mary. many doctors believe prayer does work. >> mishts have faith. patients were w. optimistic spirit and do pray believe in something other than themselves in fact do better. there is validity to that. there has never been any science that says if you pay for it it somehow gets better. that's almost like well, i don't know to go there too far but the point is if you pay for love, is it love? if you pay for prayer, is it even prayer anymore? steve: that's a good point. the governor is here. it's a big day for him. we'll talk to him in a couple of minutes on the other side of this time out. a brother honors his firefighter brother who lost his life in the september 11th attacks. he pulleded u.s. s new york made from trade center steel into dock. phil keating. we will hear from him. brian: do your kids need a personal trainer. some parents are paying up to 95 bucks to whip their 5-year-old in shape. that vacation in france put on a few pounds. i'm 40. vefse em ds e de l ng tigin m er s wh t. bitnlriim t. ece fostvele gretchen: good morning, everyone. we hope you are having a fabulous day so far. already tuesday, november 3, 2008. that means election day. voters head to the polls this morning. big question one year after a democratic landslide which way will the voters swing today? brian: all right. don't like the trillion-dollar health care proposals? going through congress right now? well make a capitol hill house call. one republican congressman -- or congresswoman offering to help you get your voice heard in washington. she will be here live to explain. steve: meanwhile, parents paying personal trainers nearly $100 an hour to whip their children into shape. is that just fine or is it over the line? you be the judge. meanwhile, our slogan this hour comes from jane in ball ground, georgia. i love my coffee every morning. it gets me up and gets me going. but without my "fox & friends," my whole day would be just boring. thank you. [captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org-- steve: today, one of our friends here on the couch is mike huckabee, former governor of the great state of arkansas joining us. you got a big announcement today. >> well, i have a new book coming out called a simple christmas. i start a 60 city book tour. this is a fun book. this is my favorite. it's not a political book. i think even liberals will like this. brian: we should throw the other six out or get a refund. >> no get awful those and get two of these others. gretchen: you are a book veteran and we will talk about this amazing book. i have to do a couple of quick headlines. gretchen: trial for a man accused of murdering arkansas anchor woman. finding a jury panel is proving difficult. 100 jurors were summoned to court yesterday. out of that pool only one not heard of the crime. she was brutally beat in her home last october. trying to ban laptops from the cockpit. a senate committee is working to introduce a bill to prevent pilots lap northwest airlines pilots. 60 miles because. mp 3 players during flights when when. republicans boycott members of the environment and public works warning senator boxer no shows unless details how it impacts the economy. boxer says she'll go forward and create a bill with just democrats. accountant is expected to plead guilty in a new york courtroom. david friehling could get more than 100 years in prison on securities fraud and other charges. struck a deal with prosecutors. blot lid off the madoff case by telling the feds which madoff associates were in on that ponzi scheme. another 10 million doses of the swine flu vaccine this week because drugmakers now increasing production. the obama administration has been criticized for overestimating the number of doses. 40 million. remember we told you airlines were charging $10 surcharge during the holidays it's now been doubled to $20. american, del tax northwest, and u.s. airways are boosting surcharges for flying on the busiest travel days. dozen dozen peek days. less command demand and fuel costs contributing. those are your headlines. brian: so-called off year election got 12 mayor's, cities new mayors. one going up to the 23 reasonable doubt district in new york. what is happening with the new jersey governorship and virginia governorship. governor mike huckabee, have you been through this process before, can we start in new jersey? what's the most intriguing thing about this? is it close. >> the presence of the independent. this is a great example of why when people get all excited about a third party they need to remember that a third party typically will tip the hand toward the candidate they like the least. that's normally what happens. you got incumbent who would have been crushed by chris christie. the presence of the third party candidate is what is keeping this thing close. otherwise it would be a run away away. jon corzine has not been above 42% the whole time: it will a strict issue hough gets their voters out there. if the unions and acorn and those special interest groups gin up the effort, corzine stays in it because ever the independent. otherwise, chris christie wins this one in a squeaker? steve: how about in the commonwealth of virginia it looks like a run away for the republican. >> virginia race is pretty much settled. i don't think there is enough votes they can bring in even from the cemetery to pull this off. they will run the tables on governor, lt. governor and attorney general. obama got 57% of the vote and two consecutive democrat governors. this is a big, big turn in virginia. gretchen: yesterday i found myself being amazed that just in a year's time or even less since president obama took office that we are actually having this discussion. he won by a landslide. >> it was a landslide in a state that is typically purple. gretchen: i was talking about the whole country the idea that virginia and new jersey could go to a republican. would you have ever predicted that last year? >> i wouldn't have predicted that his policies wouldn't have been as radically left as they have been. it's the bailouts, the stimulus money, the unbelievable debt that we have racked up. the fact that jobless rats have gone way beyond what he promised if he did the stimulus. lack of transparency, indecision in pakistan. people are sensing that we may not be ready for prime time here. steve: if the republicans are swept into power in new jersey and in virginia and maybe even in the 23rd district of new york, what does that say about the president of the united states? >> it says that congress is going to have to dial it back that they cannot continue with this mojo of thinking they have this unbelievable, unfettered mandate to go and transform health care to upend every policy that has been cap and trade probably put on a slow walk a whole lot of things that change what happens blue dogs get a little bluer after this. gretchen: you think so? we did that story about senator boxer and climate change go ahead with democrats and forget the republicans. >> she will try. there will be a time in which democrats like staying up there more than they like loving on nancy pelosi. they know if they want a ticket to retirement. quickest way is to thumb their nose at the people who vote for them. brian: senator john mccain was on the radio with us yesterday he said what astounded him most is the inexperience barack obama is showing in afghanistan the one area. as much as senator mccain and you ran against president obama when he was candidate obama knew he didn't have the biggest resume, do you think inexperience is the right term or is it also a lack of judgment? >> it's the lack of executive experience. it's not just experience period. a lot of people read books and had ideas. they have never had to be in the chair where the decision is on their back, they have got to make it. they can't wait three weeks. that's what an executive branch person has to do. you don't have the luxury of long periods of deliberation like do you in the senate in the house. you make decisions, pull the trigger and you live with the consequences. you have to be ready to make that decision. gretchen: one of the things that the president said he was waiting for in afghanistan was to have this run-off election on november 7th between harmid karzai and abdullah abdullah. it seems like they were trying to depower karzai's win that they thought he wasn't a stable government and run off involved. now that election isn't going to happen. lo and behold we have karzai back in power. what does this say about the decision that barack obama will make. >> the real mistake about it, this wasn't about the election in afghanistan. this is about whether you are going to contain the crisis there and deal with the tall badge and al qaeda. the fact of the matter is whoever is in government comes less in consequence than whether there is a presence of taliban. and are you going to give the troops enough support to protect themselves. that decision is independent of the elections and -- brian: this shows the leadership again. buys time. delegitimize karzai and didn't want to talk to him when he was a candidate and didn't want to talk to him when he is president. now he con yat lats him yesterday and dealing with a situation where he guy that's going to be counted on. now what is your reason for delay? >> well, his reason for delay is he doesn't want to make the left mad by sending 40,000 troops. in on the other hand, he has a general that he put there this is what has got to be remembered. this isn't george bush's picked general this is barack obama's personally picked general. mcchrystal says i have got to have some troops or we can't move forward and now we are dithering on the third month and we still don't have a decision. it's really very troubling. don't minimize the fact that we have troops that are flat worn out. they have been on sixth and 70 tour of duty. you can't keep asking folks unless you are going to give them resources and gin this thing up. steve: you are going on a 60 city tour because today your new book "a simple christmas" is hitting the bookstore shelves. >> yes. steve: this is different. it's not about policy or losing weight this is about you and christmas and growing up. >> it is. it's a collection of stories and framed in the fact all of news our lives sort of have christmas as our year-to-year milestone. i try to make it that people need to remember that the first christmas was not this elaborate affair with great production. god didn't bring the message into the world with good staging and catering it happened in a barn with animals. i say silent night. silent night my foot. mary was an unmarried pregnant teenager hanging without a scrag gli boy away from home. no mid wife no, epidural, no lamaze class. had that this is a real birth. this is more jerry springer than oprah. if you look at the real christmas, the first one, it was anything except the sanitized version that we have at church pageants. brian: look at more at historical? >> no. the setting is that but then all these stories are stories of -- what i would say is when people read these stories some of them are going to make them laugh. some of them may touch their hearts a little bit there are tough moments we experience. last christmas since then that grandma died. in all of those people will see their own families and will see themselves. gretchen: i want to give the cliff hanger, i'm not going to give it away. >> ok. gretchen: you wanted a guitar when you were 11. i believe this was younger than 11. >> i was like 5. i was trying to do my best elvis pose. you came down christmas morning and under the tree there was nothing. >> nothing. gretchen: you will have to read chapter 2. >> you will. steve: you eventually became a little rocker. >> if it hadn't been that whole experience at 11 i might not be on fox news playing music with the likes of lori morgan and will pryce. brian: it is a great christmas story. it? >> is. gretchen: simple christmas, that's what the whole point of it is. >> thank you. great to be here with you guys always a pleasure. gretchen: brother honors his firefighter brother who lost his brother in the attacks on september 11th. phil keating here next to share his story. brian: plenty of adults use personal trainers to trim the fat. hiring personal trainers to trim the weight from their kids, too. is that really necessary? ♪ kelly saunder's nature valley. ♪ the place that inspires her to go faster... ♪ and slower. ♪ elk mountains, colorado. where's yours? 100% natural nature valley granola bars. the taste nature intended. gretchen: this is an amazing story. a tribute to a fallen brother on september 11th, 2001. firefighter paul keating was one of the first men to respond to the world trade center along with thousands of others his life was sadly lost that morning. yesterday neil keating was able to honor his brother. is he a port pilot. he took over the reigns of the uss new york and guided the ship into new york harbor and neil keating joins us here on the couch. good morning to you. >> good morning to you, gretchen. gretchen: about a year ago you found out that the uss new york made of world trade center steel was going to be coming up here to new york city and you did, what? >> well, i reached out to the president of my company to ask permission when the ship did enter new york that i would lining to be considered the pilot of the ship and he granted that wish. gretchen: what an amazing experience for you your brother one of the first responders, first firefighter at 9/11. to pilot this ship coming back home so to speak. >> i can't describe. it was such a great honor. my brother would be very proud, i think. and he responded that day as all the firefighters did. he lived right next to the trade center and went down there to 1010. and he was killed in the south tower: my father was a pilot 47 years. i'm extremely honored and overwhelmed by, you know, being granted permission to pilot the ship yesterday. it was great. gretchen: tell us exactly what you did and what your reaction was the moment you saw this ship coming towards you. >> well, i had an opportunity to meet the captain earlier at the 9/11 yankee game. we attended together guest of the yankees. i had familiarity with the captain. that made things a little easier. but as i boarded the ship out there, we get on about 20 miles from the bridge and as i boarded the ship and climbed up the ladder i got goose bumps all over. just -- i can't really descrint feeling i had. like a connection to the ship. gretchen: of course. as i mentioned, much of the ship is built from world trade center steel. >> yeah. very powerful symbolism there. gretchen: it was not only your brother who died that day. you knew 15 people personally? >> well, 15 people from my high school were killed among other people down the jersey shore where i live. there was a lot of connections. an interesting story, after 9/11, president bush came to town and i had an opportunity to meet him. they set up the gentleman very much center and they had an jerry cordoned off with four curtains around. the curtain opened up and president bush was standing there. we looked at each other and he embraced me and i will never forget that day. it was really special. gretchen: what should people remember when they see the uss new york? >> the fact that the boughs made from that 7.5 tons of steel. the boughs is the strongest part of the ship that trudges through the waves and re resilient and keeps going and this symbolizes new york and the families. gretchen: what a beautiful tribute. neil keating, thank you so much for being with us today. "fox & friends" will be broadcasting our show live from the uss new york from 6 to 9:00 a.m. thanks for being our guest. >> thank you for having me. gretchen: five g.o.p. lawmakers are getting ready to make a house call at the capitol today urging voters to speak out against the reformed health care bill. he calls it the most expensive give away ever. peter johnson jr. big pharma and seiu are getting them. ♪ you better watch out ♪ you better not cry. steve: ho ho ho. some believe that health care reform could come to a congressional vote around christmas time. if that's true, then what surprises could americans find under their tree when santa pelosi comes down the chimney? fox news analyst peter johnson jr. takes a look at the christmas list. these are political friends pelosi? >> apparently. you know, bureaucracy is expanding to meet the needs of the everexpanding bureaucracy as they say. and, according to congressional republicans, there are 111 new boards, bureaucracies, commissions and programs in the pelosi bill. steve: ok. >> so this is kind of a fun way of looking at a very serious question the issue becomes is this the gift that not keeps on giving, are these the gifts that keep on taking from americans? and so when you look at the 111 bureaucracies, commissions, programs, pilot project, demonstration projects, it's daunting. it's staggering. you are saying, you know, we have all been christmas shopping or hanukkah shopping. we know when the credit card bill comes january 7th or 8th, when we have spent a little bit too much in terms of robust items for christmas or hanukkah, the bill needs to be paid. steve: let's look at the gifts. >> presented to the seiu, to big pharma, to the white house courtesy of nancy pelosi. the program of administrative simplification that is something that you would certainly want to have. simplify things and have a program to simplify things. steve: why not simple ply it. >> receipts and disbursement for public health insurance option, appairive aeffectiveness and research commission. commission decide which tests you need and which surgeries you don't need. the public health workforce loan forgiveness program. so we should forgive some loans. that's not going to cost any money after christmas passes in 2013 rolls around. the granted program for research and demonstration projects, related to wellness incentives. steve: and there is more. >> there is more. just pick one. pilot program to develop anti-frid compliance for medicare providers. we are told that billions of dollars are going to be saved in terms of medicare fraud. so now we know that there is a pilot program. the democrats say, listen, republicans, you are out of control. you are trivializing what we are trying to do here. what you call bureaucracies, commissions, programs and boards, you know what they really are? they are demonstration projects. they are not new agencies. they are pilot projects. these are not new bureaucracies. these are tests projects. so the question becomes is this a petrie dish for the holidays. protest of bow tan calls for christmas? we are going to report. you decide. steve: sure. >> see what the christmas gifts are going to cost. steve: on the this election day it looks like christmas. good presentation. >> coordination. >> health choices administration. you are nigh my secret santa. you want that? steve: i know there is a lot of them. all right, peter. straight ahead g.o.p. lawmakers holding a town hall outside the capitol to protest health care reform. one of the lawmakers representative michelle balkman is going to join us live shortly. $95 an hour for a personal trainer for preteenager? parents accused of taking fitness too far. that's straight ahead on "fox & friends." ho ho ho. gretchen: hope you are having a great tuesday so far. couple of quick headlines. new video of secretary of state hillary clinton struggling this morning. having a hard time figuring out how exactly the translater works. secretary clinton is in morocco meeting with middle east advancing in the region and resolve the federal conflict. she ought to be confused. she has been to from pakistan to north korea to morocco. brian: she should not have to work her own head set that's what holbrook is for. steve: it's all greek to me. could hold a vote today on a new 20 billion-dollar package of aid. the bill includes home buyer and business tax breaks along with a major expansion of unemployment benefits to help carry people through the holiday season. the national unemployment rate is now at 9.%. new numbers due out friday. brian: roman polanski's fate in the hand of california judges at this hour. they will hear arguments on why charges against the fugitive director should be dismisz dismissed. he acharges on having sex a 13-year-old girl and drugging her. he has been fighting extradition back in the united states and also finishing off a script in prison. gretchen: ford is reporting unexpected profits of $1 billion in the third quarter thanks to cash for clunkers program. only major automaker not to take bailout money. this as a government watchdog group warns taxpayers they are unlikely to seat $81 billion invested in general motors and chrysler. the government now has a 60% equity stake in general motors and nearly 10% stake in chrysler. steve: meanwhile unusual fall flooding is swamping parts of the midwest causing rivers to spill over their banks in missouri, illinois as well. in fenton, mers, some people are being forced to leave their homes. >> not too many people can get here unless they're coming by boat because it's a little bit more difficult to come around the back street. but we're lucky down here on the lower part of the river that we have got about four or five day notice. steve: a flooding like this is usually only seen in the spring or summer. not smack dab in the middle of fall. meanwhile nasa says the mars recovery spirit is suffering from amnesia again. the 6-year-old recovery robot suffering a memory lapse for the fifth time this year. the spirit failing to save recorded data from the day's activities. scientists on earth try to nail down the cause. jiggle it back to life. all right, brian. gretchen: we're not going to blow your cover, brian. who won the game last night? brian: i just wanted to tease the game, gretchen. i don't have that much to hide. gretchen: i didn't blow it. brian: unlike steve. you did a very bad thing. steve: yankees lose. brian: 27th world championship in philadelphia last night. one problem. the phillies continue to pay the second base utley. he says i got a pitch on three days rest. he didn't have it phillies went up 3-1 at that point. they took the lead they would not relinquish. in the 7th utley would tie reggie jackson for mom most homers in a world series. far from over perhaps. gone. later in the ninth, it would be interesting, but derek jeter would ground to a double play with two men on. phillies would get a run there but go on to lose by a final score of 8-6 with the yankees. jumping ahead a little bit. the philadelphia enquirer, look what they put in the paper. back-to-back championship for the phillies. the philly at the time were down three games to one. they say they deeply regret the error. game six is back in new york. tomorrow night. first pitch 8:00. pregame show at 7:30. now basketball. yes, basketball starter. remember over the weekend taking a one handed swat at a bat. down goes to the bat. now he has to go and get a shot. a rabies shot as a precaution. the bat was never found. doctors's to protect him just in case. no word on how he found his way into the at and t center on halloween. must have a nasty headache. speed skating on the fast track. get. this he just announced that his show will be the primary sponsor of the u.s. speed skating team at the next year's olympic games in vancouver. take a listen. >> olympic cup. is this possible? can the colbert nation sponsor u.s. speed skating? >> yes, absolutely. >> where do i sign? >> right here. [shears -- [cheers] [chanting: usa] brian: colbert will not pay the team directly but ask fans to donate the money. gretchen: another bailout. brian: sponsored a treadmill in space. steve: called the colbert. brian: publicity getting his fans to pay for it. steve: here is a very troubling trend. we have been talking about childhood obesity. well, here in new york city, a number of parents who have apparently overscheduled their kids. they have got spanish lessons and then they have got ballet lessons or piano lessons and soccer around stuff like that. there is no time to work out, really. so they are hiring personal trainers at a charge of $95 an hour to do what the parents should be doing. and that is work the kids out. gretchen: they don't even need to work out that much. the little soccer game here and there might help. how about just running around outside. that's what we all did when we were growing up. also how about just eating a couple healthy things every day. i'm all for the ho hos and the donuts and the twinkies in moderation but a little healthy eating might be a good idea and a little running around outside just playing. brian: i have been anti-ho ho for a while. and i have come out publicly against that. i'm for. this it's fantastic. steve: you are for the 95 bucks? , i'm for the $95. if you have the money and you are working two families working all the time. worried about little billie sitting on the couch all day because you are afraid to let him outside because little billie could get kidnapped as he goes to ted imr's house. work out little billie in your house with just towel and dumbbell. steve: here is the problem. gretchen: not at all. steve: psychologist by the name of john roseman he calls this trophy parenting. they are trying to raise kids who they will have something to talk about at cocktail parties. you know my son's personal trainer. is he 10. gretchen: oh, please. steve: when it comes to responsibility, it's a math problem. you have got to do a little working out to burn some calories. you have got to ingest fewer calories. why would you spend 9 a dollars to have the kid work off the 350,000-calorie banana split. brian: this is why i feel. i hired a trainer for my son when he was younger. here is a shot of him right now. it really paid off. steve: that looked photo shopped. brian: that is brian. he has since put on a lot of weight. gretchen: that is not brian. that is a 5-year-old body builder from romania. apparently this kid will be in the guinness book of world records for finishing a 10 minute walk with a weight ball between his leg for 24 seconds. brian: weight ball between his leg? gretchen: one psychologist they talked to got it right, i think. the way to deal with chubbiness is to feed a kid properly and have fun outside. not micromanage every inch of their lives. don't we want to hearken back to the good old days. some of it we can't do. we can't let her kids run willy-nilly. brian: you can't play ring around the rosy alone. gretchen: invite some friends over. get a little exercise. brian: maybe he doesn't have any friends in his high rise. gretchen: let me know how the training sessions go. brian: ok, fine. steve: email us whether you think this is a good idea. anyone who was a move van in the 19 0s remembers the teen classic "say anything." 20th anniversary of today's movie release. we spotted some fans out on the street. they're all dressed like john cusack at lloyd done ob ler's. glass in your ice. that's funny. >> one guy is in a guess jeans commercial. the other in the movie. steve: released on "definitely downtown" and blue ray. gretchen: i wonder if those guys had personal trainers? brian: not sure. going to look into that at 5:00. gretchen: jon corzine casting his vote right there in the contentious gubernatorial race in new jersey. there is already talk of recount will be needed? brian: we're going to find out about possible corruption in new jersey, yes. don't like the trillion-dollar health care reform proposals going through congress, perhaps? then make it a capitol hill house call. one republican congresswoman offering to help you get your voice heard. michelle balkman here to explain. ale nt thaveayci y t od tha nty wa branme faf aiz leh ii grnt faf aiz ked kalm leh ii eas sh dcaro,t faf aiz ep wutbyd oll ked kalm f f aiz faf aiz ep wutbyd oll ked brthme f f aiz steve: the white house is keeping a close eye on two key governor races today. in new jersey republican chris christie is trying to unseat jon corzine in virginia republican bob mcdonnell has been leading in the race to replace tim kaine. two reports. christine is live in hoboke in new jersey and sara is live in annandale, virginia. first, let's go to sarah. >> intit the spacket this state went blue president barack obama we are seeing quite a lead in the polls for the republican in this lead. bob mcdonnell showing him at a 12 point lead over the democrat creigh deeds who has been trying to make a last-minute push campaigning with tim kaine. also last week president obama was here campaigning on his behalf, who we have also seen in a lot of creigh deeds' television advertisements as well. now at this point we are really kind of looking at whether or not to is going to be a litmus test for the rest of the country. the outcome here. if it does, indeed, go republican, what does this mean for the rest of the country? what does this mean for the performance of president barack obama? also we're looking at this as a possible prediction for the 2010 congressional races. we're going to go live now to new jersey where christina is covering the hotly contested governor's race there christine? >> thank you, sarah, yeah, there has been a steady stream of voters here in whohoboken. the governor spoke with us after he came out he said it's a great day that he feels optimistic about voter turnout. that's really important here. this race has been so close. the polls have r. showing governor jon core zint democrat and his republican challenger chris christie neck and neck. there is an independent candidate in this race as well. the latest poll show him getting about 12% of the vote. that's got both campaigns a little worried because they say he is taking votes away from them. but corzine, like i said, said he felt optimistic said he had a friend in the white house. president obama has come here to new jersey and campaigned for corzine a number of times this summer as has the vice president. also former president bill clinton so he has had a lot of big wigs in the democratic party come here to try to save this state and keep it with the democrats. that's what president obama wants but republican chris christie is really giving him a challenge here so. we have to wait and see what happens. steve: all right. christine reporting live and sarah thank you very much for the report. all right, good. meanwhile, new jersey's next governor will most likely be decided by the end of the day, could widespread fears of voter fraud in the state potentially lead to a recount? brian: "wall street journal"'s john fund joins us live to explain. john, what do you mean we are heading to a recount? are you worried about the new jersey voting process? >> the polls are very close. so we could have a recount like we had in 1981 where tom kaine became voter after 1800 vote victory. if there is a recount, we're going to have an enormous amount of controversy about absentee ballots. the state legislature and governor corzine passed a new law in july, much easier to cast an absentee ballot. the problem in new jersey is individuals can go collect absentee ballot applications, can distribute them to people, collect the applications and then get the ballots delivered to people and then they can deliver the ballots to the election officials. third party messengers any call them. steve: what's extraordinary and i didn't realize. this i live in new jersey. somebody can go in to the official place where you pick these up and say give me 10 ballots, so if you had 100 people each asking for 10 and then they disappear and come back in a couple of days. i can see where a recount could be called for. >> camden, new jersey, the number of absentee ballots in 2005 last time we had governor's race 200. now it's 3700 and climbing. 15 times more there are more ballots already cast absentee this year in newark and in cam item than in the entire election, presidential election. brian: two places where president barack obama went on sunday. >> yes. and obama has been here three times so the get out the vote effort is dramatic. jon corzine is spending millions of his own fortune is he doing street money. pay people to get out and vote. knock and drag they call it there is a concern of voter fraud. hospitals near newark where people have been seen entering and helping patients filling out ballots. steve: wow. brian: right now it looks very close. 42-40. >> i talked to two voters in cam item who told me personally that they have had people cast absentee ballots in their name and they never requested them and they haven't voted themselves yet. steve: sounds like fraught with peril. john fund thank you. >> thank you. brian: republican lawmakers getting ready to make a house call on capitol hill. they are urging voters to join them. we will talk to representative michelle balkman a rising star on the political scene. she is one of the organizers. she joins us next. that's her live. steve: plus karl rove joins us at the top of the hour. today by the way is november 3rd, election day. the number one song back on this date in 1971, reason to believe by that guy, rod stewart. ♪ . . gretchen: welcome back. do you still have concerns about the democrats and their health care bill? michelle bodman is asking americans to come to washington on thursday to make a house call on health care reform. she is joining me live from washington, d.c. >> good morning. good to be with you. gretchen: i know that you and some other republicans are having a town hall or this get- together error, asking people across america to join you. join you in what? up to let the congress know that the messages from the tea party are still relevant. people do not want the government to take over their health care. they have kind of forgotten that message. this is it, this is the super bowl of freedom this week. this will change our country forever, dramatic tax increases the cost citizens $500 billion in health care. truly, the only way that they are going to listen is if the freedom loving americans come to washington at noon on thursday, look into the whites of the eyes of the members of congress and say don't you remember, do not take away my health care. we will have john polite -- the actor. we have other guests, it will be free and open to the public. then we are asking people to go into the office building to find their member of congress and tell them look, you have to vote no. with very few options. we do not have to vote to stop this, but the american people are the strongest voice that we have. gretchen: let me ask you this, these people might have some kind of impact on conservative democrats, right? >> that is the point. they are squarely sitting on the fence right now. if they see their constituents coming to washington, d.c., it will make a difference. it made a huge difference in august. if the vote had happened in august, of no question that the vote would have failed. but speaker pelosi has been able to bring down the hammer over the last few months. we need to remind them that people do not want their health care taken away. gretchen: people can find out more information under foxnews.com -- more information on foxnews.com. >> thank you. gretchen: karl rove knows all about the midterm election trends and he is here live. try to look like you are interested. [laughter] he played a father on television, alan thicke is here to tell you how to raise kids that will lead hate you. @@ do [captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org-- gretchen: good thursday morning to you. it is election day. polls are opening around the country in three big races that could reshape the future of american politics. karl rove is breaking it down for us. he brought a dry erase board. steve: very nice. hillary clinton is calling out the bush administration. >> we should have taken out al qaeda when we had the chance in 2001. they escaped into pakistan. steve: what else did she have to say? straight ahead. brian: enraged model on the attack. more trouble could be on the way. a little bit of news and a little bit of fun with "fox & friends" at no. 1. steve: live from studio e for election. gretchen: [laughter] brian: election. steve: off key. gretchen: bringing the excitement back. steve: what are you writing, carl? brian: you cannot give it away. steve: you will find out in two minutes. gretchen: the search is on for three missing college softball players. they had been missing since saturday night. one of them called another friend for help, they all come from dickinson university in north dakota. all of the women have mobile phones that go directly to voicemail. the 24-woman -- 24-year-old will and allegedly run over by her old father for allegedly becoming too westernized has passed away. her father hit her with an suv because she was not living up to traditional iraqi values. a fox news alert, warren buffett, making a deal this morning that he called an all in wager on the economic future of the u.s.. the deal has been approved by the board, it is the biggest acquisition for berkshire hathaway ever. 500,000 pounds of ground beef are being recalled from possible e. coli bacteria contamination. two people have died so far. the company says that the meat was packaged between the 14th and the 16th of september. 20 high school girls have been given a chance to learn life skills from the first lady and her staff. a mentoring program launched by michelle obama, the program is designed to inspire 10th grade and 11th grade girls. several members of the first lady's staff will serve as mentors. in new york city firefighter killed on september 11, his brother took over the reins of the uss new york and guided the ship yesterday. earlier on "fox & friends" we talked about that experience. >> i am extremely honored and overwhelmed by being allowed permission to pilot the ship yesterday. gretchen: do not miss our thursday show, we will be broadcasting live from the uss new york. gretchen: four weeks president obama has been actively rallying around democratic candidates running today. with his presence make a difference at the polls? ok, what is the president planning for today? up >> and nothing related to these elections. he has got a series of meetings today, meeting with angela merkel, lots of foreign affairs on his schedule. he will be meeting with blanche lincoln, probably talking some health care. nothing active on the campaign trail, he has done his work in that regard. plenty of people will be watching those races. steve: what does the president have at stake? he has actively campaigned for some of these candidates. >> expect the white house to say that these are based on state and local issues. there has already been suggestion that people at the white house do not think that the democratic candidate in virginia has run a good campaign. chances are that they will say that whatever happens today will not have a huge impact on 2012, but larry said that for the president to win reelection in 2012, he needs virginia to stay in the democratic column. certainly the white house does not want to see virginia sibling bay in the republican way. steve: mike, you are the greatest white house correspondent in the world. thank you very much. >> thank you. steve: one of the greatest advisers ever in the world, karl rove. that is what he told me to say. >> a bad habit, do you not think? gretchen: you are sandwiched between us. let's talk about this very important election in new jersey. this could be a stunner with the republican winning. it would probably be a big win if it was not for the independent candidate. >> it is a deep blue state that barack obama won one year ago. last week jon corzine was winning at the beginning of the week by five points. as pointed out earlier, this is a state where if you are a republican, you had better be wellhead. lots of funny things can happen. brian: why you think his big lead shrunk? why did it come back? >> he was in a state where there is a campaign finance law that limits his expenditures to $11.5 million. gov. karzai has a lot of personal wealth, -- gov. jon corzine has a lot of personal wealth, he is a goldman sachs banker. most of the money has come from his own pop -- from his own pocket. chris christie got his mojo back by talking about taxes and corruption and the waste that had generated low economic growth in new jersey. steve: it looks like it is a runaway for the republican in virginia. interestingly, northern virginia has suddenly kind of turned around. >> this will be one of the three keys to mcdonald. it looks like he will run an extent -- significantly ahead in northern virginia. it is not about who wins and loses, but the question this morning is how people do. let's say that you have a 5% swing. if the democrats do 5% worse than they did last year, that could have big consequences. if the republicans had done 5% better last year, it would not be 60/40, it would be 54/46. a small swing can have big consequences. what we are likely to see in virginia, barack obama got that state by six points and mcdonald's looks like he is about to get a 14. victory. gretchen: the republican candidate for governor in new jersey, when he sat on this couch she said to me that he did not believe it would be a referendum on barack obama, the eupepsia otherwise? -- do you see it otherwise? >> i agree. but i think the new jersey is a different case. the effect will be less on barack obama then save virginia. but the biggest problem is that jon corzine has been a lousy governor, otherwise he would be running away with this state. it means that the election is more about new jersey. obama is still an issue, but not like in upstate new york. brian: upstate new york, the motto from joe biden was to come join us, the republicans do not want you. >> that was outrageous. in northern virginia they called the republicans in virginia the taliban. that is the kind of lunatic rhetoric we should not have. particularly undignified for the vice president of the united states. steve: switching topics, the president of the united states knows he is going to be dealing with karzai over in afghanistan because abdullah abdullah dropped out. in the meantime, the president has got on the back burner the decision to send more troops. you would think that now the decision would be pretty simple. >> did he not spend years talking about how we were not spending enough resources in afghanistan? steve: it took him six months to figure out what kind of dog to get. >> i am troubled by the way that the administration has handled the relationship with tommy karzai. they started with their new approach to afghanistan, which was correct, increasing troops. but they started badmouthing him then. they sent to james carville to handle the campaign of the third candidate. i have been told by a confidante of karzai that after the election, bars i tried to call obama and obama would not take his phone call. after the election joe biden told karzai not to expect him to call more than a couple of times for year. gretchen: now they are stuck with it. >> imagine world war ii where we only talked to churchill a couple of times per year. gretchen: now they are stuck with him and forced to make a decision. stick around, $1.20 trillion, that is how much the house version of health care bill is expected to cost. why is nancy pelosi saying it will only cost $900 billion? brian: parents want to keep track of their kids. should they be using a special gps device to do so? luke: moving my mind and my hands at world record speed. i'm luke myers. if you want to be incredible, eat incredible. announcer: eggs. incredible energy for body and mind. (guitar music) thaveaycit y t od tha nty wa branme faf aiz leh ii grnt faf aiz ked kalm leh ii eas sh dcaro,t faf aiz ep wutbyd oll ked kalm f f aiz faf aiz ep wutbyd oll ked brthme f f aiz steve: the house health care reform bill is likely to go to debate this week. now we know that it is not the $900 billion plan requested by the president. instead it could cost $1.20 trillion or more. karl rove, a former senior adviser to george h. w. bush, continues with us. north of $1.20 trillion? that is way off. >> i have got the congressional budget office document right here. this says that it is $1 trillion dollars, plus $5 billion. this thing is in deficit by at least $400 billion. if there are some assumptions in here that assume, for example, that we are going to tax the high wealth individuals, two- thirds of whom are small businesses. it assumes that those revenues are going to grow at 5% every year. if you are going to tax the small businesses heavily, we are going to get less profits. steve: i thought that they had gotten this back down. everyone said that this would never work, that we cannot penalize the most successful people in the country, otherwise they will never create new jobs. call rove which is why this is a nonstarter in the senate. let's be clear, this is to get the process to a point where the house has passed a bill, the senate has passed a bill, then we go right the real bill, the one they really want to pass. remember, this bill does not bend to the so-called health care curb. remember, everyone said that a big part of why we are doing this was to slow down health- care costs in america. premiums will rise as a direct result of this bill. steve: would it ever gets so big that it would force print -- premiums down? >> the public option will be higher than the premiums for private businesses. steve: what? that is in there? why have we not heard about this? >> my column in "the wall street journal" talks about it. this thing taxes and our jobs, repeating the big problem from earlier this year, a tax on small businesses that the cbo cbo says will result in more taxes for small business people. steve: thank you, karl rove. straight ahead, the little body, a tracking device for little children. is it a good idea? a fair and balanced debate on big daddy who is watching, or big mama. hillary clinton goes on the record. what does she think about her job and how the bush administration handled the war in afghanistan? straight ahead. brian: news by the numbers. $4.5 billion, that is how much black and decker was sold for. how many plants and animals are in danger of becoming extinct? 17,291. 28 hours 45 minutes, that is how long it took the final runner to finish the new york city marathon. her name is zoe, a motivational speaker who suffers from multiple sclerosis. congratulations. gretchen, take it away. gretchen: a new personal tracking device is designed to keep tabs on where your kids are. drop it in the backpack of your child, or their lunch box, it uses gps technology to signal their exact location. a great way to keep your kids safe or parental supervision gone too far? a free -- fair and balanced debate this morning. good morning. >> good morning. i know that you think that this device is a great idea. you came up with a similar situation where you had a program that allowed police to get information about their child immediately if they were a bucket or lost. what parent would not want to know where their kid is at all times? >> that is exactly the idea. we give parents the opportunity to of load photos and the data that can be easily retrieved by law enforcement. kgo tracker -- a geo tracker that parents can afford. i highly endorse this kind of product. gretchen: one would assume, lenore, that you are not in favor of this kind of supervision. what is wrong with this idea? >> not that we do not want our children to be safe, but we believe in training children to be independent. to know how to ask for help, to know how to talk to strangers, to know how to check in with mom. the idea that we need a chip on the child as if they are a delivery that has gone awry, it plays into this fear mongering that our children are in danger when they step out of the house. this is not true. if we make them independent, the children are even more safe. gretchen: over the weekend my 4- year-old son went to the door, even though i told him never to open the door for a stranger. he took a package. we had a very important meeting after the fact. he is four, he could have been gone. i agree with -- >> absolutely. i agree with lower. you should teach them the information that makes sense at their age. that being said, children are not perfect, your own experience shows. this is just an added level of security. gretchen: rapid up. >> i do not think that your child was in danger. the child could have been taken away, but by the ups man? we have to remember that the world is safer than we think. we are imagining friday the 13th scenarios. gretchen: maybe, but we report on these stories all the time and they do not end up good. >> thanks for having a son. gretchen: a mother goes after her daughter's accused killer. the mother says that more trouble ahead. want to make sure that your kids do not hate you? we will ask a famous television father who has three kids of his own. alan thicke is going to join us on the curving couch. >> congress has another hour to not read the new health care bill. [laughter] gretchen: a good point. one of those health care bills is 2000 pages. might take a couple of years to breach that much bling go. [laughter] -- lingo. [laughter] steve: hillary clinton said that the administration of george w. bush messed up big. watch this. >> al qaeda left afghanistan. we let them out. they escaped into pakistan. to that extent, if we had done a better job going into afghanistan and capturing the people that attacked us, we would be in a different position. brian: amazing. she did such a great job dealing with it the pakistani press, and for her to go back at a time like this is foolhardy. it will make people say that you are blaming the past administration for not getting rid of all about qaeda, and at the same time during the clinton administration nothing was done about the embassy bombings. we were afraid to pick him up, but we were afraid? there would have been no attack. why would she do that. steve: you made a great point about pakistan. she said that pakistani is -- you know where they are, help us out. gretchen: to a certain extent she is saying what the president's himself would agree with, president bush. he would say that he had wished that he had been able to root out more of the taliban. i do not think that she is calling them out like they did nothing, i think she is making a general statement that she wished, as others do, and that we would have been rid of them. brian: you know what i would say to that? that unfortunately we did not capitalize that -- capitalize on it. you do not talk about 2001. steve: she was very specific. brian: what about the first time that the world trade center was bombed? steve: it was handled simply as a criminal thing rather than as terrorism. of course, all of that changed. another exclusive with hillary last night. top headlines for this tuesday, lawyers for john allen muhammed are said to file an appeal to stop his execution. he is scheduled to die by lethal injection next week for his part in the shooting spree in 2002 that left 10 people dead. his teenage accomplice is currently serving a life in prison. gretchen: looking for a missing baby girl in florida, she was last seen in her chifley home on saturday. 2 feet tall, 11 pounds. the sheriff said that they have identified i person of interest in the disappearance but that if you have more information, please call the number on your screen. brian: voters are being urged to protest the proposed health-care overhaul package. michele bachman is the organizer of this so-called house call. >> this is it, the super bowl of freedom. personalized medicine is the crown jewel of socialism. dramatic tax increases that will cost senior citizens $500 billion in health care. brian: fox wants to remind capitol hill how many americans are opposed to this reform. gretchen: drug makers are increasing production of the h1n1 vaccine. drug makers say that it does not pose any dangers to children and that children having a children's those are adequately protected. brian: a mother lunges after the woman accused of killing her daughter in court. this case has another heartbreaking twist. moments before, her other daughter faced the judge. she was charged in helping to cause her sister's death by leaving her in the backseat of a freezing car after a night of drinking. gretchen: marilyn monroe's final resting place has been put up for auction, but no one put in a bid. the crypt is located in los angeles. brian: i am not sure. the yankees will be playing against the phillies in new york tomorrow. burnett was pulled out early, pitching off three days. in the seventh, not another home run, did you not know it? the second baseman had an eyeball on the outfielder. it was a double play in the ninth. a double run. going down swinging. philadelphia jumped the gun a bit. look at what it says in the paper -- congratulations to the phillies on back-to-back championships. they said that they deeply regret the error. they are two games away from going back to back. game 6 is tonight, 8:00, no word yet on if the pitch will be a strike. gretchen: steve has gone outside to check the weather. the first indication that it is surely, he put on a coat. >> oddly, it is not my coat. what have we got cooking today? a little bit of rain off the coast and in kansas city, otherwise the balance of the country is nice and dry on this third day of november. why am i wearing a trench coat outside? don't look like these guys. usually when you see a bunch of guys in times square wearing trenchcoats the 20th anniversary of a movie is not what comes to mind. but it was 20 years ago today that the john cusec movie, "in your eyes" came out -- the movie, these guys -- the movie called "say anything" and this is in a modest, playing peter gabriel's "say anything." which is the song they played in the may -- in the movie. how old are you? >> 25. steve: how did this movie change your life? >> ah, um. steve: pass. >> how did the movie change your life? i had just graduated high school. it was so typical of a high school kid. he was in love, he had have her. steve callahan had a big impact on this man! dvd and bluray comes out today from 20 a century fox. thanks, guys. brian: if that movie were to be done today, it would be a lot easier on the models, it would be tiny little speakers. let's talk about politics. gretchen: just one year after a democratic landslide, which way are the voters swinging? brian: bringing football to the troops, the gang from fox nfl sunday is headed to afghanistan. we have the details coming up next from the premier sports reporter in the world. gretchen: how do you make sure that your kids do not grow up to hate you? famous television dad, alan thicke, is here to share his personal experience. gretchen: republicans and democrats across the country are keeping a close watch on the governor's races in new jersey and virginia. we have reports coming from new jersey and virginia. let's go first to sarah. >> donothing like a lines we saw last november. this race is much different we have seen the republican in this race, bob macdonald, with a 12 point lead over the democratic candidate, who is trying to make up some ground here. last week it was president obama, who we have seen in quite a few of the advertisements. everyone is wondering which way this will go. is this a litmus test for how president obama is doing? christine has more from new jersey. >> of this race is it so close, a big deal for president obama. the president came here to new jersey to campaign for jon corzine. he is urging his supporters to come out and support jon corzine. and republican has not won a state election in this state for a dozen years. chris christie has really been putting up a fight, he has been neck-and-neck with jon corzine throughout the campaign. kress that it is also making waves in the race. he should get about 12% of the votes, both campaigns are watching. we will have to see what happens. gretchen: we will wait for those election results to come in tonight right here on fox. brian: the number one pregame nfl show on the planet is leaving the confines of their studio and heading to afghanistan to honor our troops live. they will be broadcasting their show from the u.s. military base in afghanistan, so give us the inside story. you are a valued member of the team, jake, thank you for getting up with us. how excited are you to go to afghanistan and see the men and women that are serving? >> probably the most exciting thing that has happened to me in my career. we in the football sports entertainment world, we are just in the state, providing an escape from the real world. these people are the real world, saving lives and laying down the line over there. we are hoping to raise spirits and morale. i could not be more stoked. brian: this is probably a lot of information that they are going that hit you up for. all you guys had it over there, what is your itinerary? >> we have also got the gap guy. brian: the guy with the sitcom? >> right. brian: you can tell me where you are going? >> i do not have the security clearance to provide that information. it is on a need to know basis. do you like how i can use military terms? brian: i do. >> i do not know we are doing. we will be going around to different areas. i have not really been told. we do none know where we are going or what time we are getting there. like you said, a two hour-long special. we were told about how incredibly excited those guys are to meet us, but i think we are more excited to meet them. brian: the think the saints are going to win? >> -- do you think that the saints are going to win? >> remember, it is a violent sport and they are a violent team. i think that they are the best in football. brian: this is a great thing that you and your team are doing. thank you for giving us in sight. straight ahead, we are wrapping up this show by answering this question -- how do you talk to your kids? alan thicke is here, there is talking to steve. martha: at the top of the our boating is well -- at the top of the hour, of voting is well under way here in america. the white house has laid it on the line and is watching closely. who might be the below the radar winner today bil? reid. . . steve: he played one of the most beloved dad's on television on "growing pains." alan thicke is also a crab pot but to three sons. gretchen: he has taken his parental with them and throw in a dash of humor in his new book, "said how to raise kids who won't hate you -- new book, "how to raise kids who won't take you." don't we want them to hate us a little bit? >> they will hate us if we are doing things right, because we have blocked their path to the cookie jar. the point is better to have them hate you now for a week than later for a lifetime. steve: you played a perfect father on television. what is the biggest mistake that parents make? >> the flip side is communication. we have always known that the way that you talk to your kids is the key to raising children, but what they are telling us not to wait until the hormones kick in, they have a loud voice that will be heard by psychologists. i do not really know anything, i have gathered it from other people and spun it with my own anecdotes. within six months they are starting to feel you out, starting to get you. steve: is that a part of the defense of parenting that you are talking about? what they're hearing from peers and teachers, it is also the internet. your voice needs to be heard above them. do not be afraid or ashamed to concentrate a lot on spying and lying. we need intelligence. we need boots on the ground. we need opinions, hillary clinton famously said that it takes a village. this book identifies to the villagers are. group we need to talk to. how we get our information. gretchen: a lot of times parents in this generation think about letting the kids be independent and do things on their own, but the parents needs to be that guiding force and no matter what. >> and it must be age appropriate at every age. this book seeks to identify every possible scenario that could ever come up, from the tantrum of a 2-year-old to a 6- year-old with a cat. steve: thank you for sharing those great pictures and stories. alan thicke, "how to raise kids that will not hate you." >> it cannot be done, but it is worth trying.
