wife and i would like to invite you into our home and that's moments away. but squarely it's in the national spotlight recently with the elections of two prominent elected officials continuing to thrive despite negative stories that might have crushed other politicians in other times. one is being sued by the feds for refusing to cooperate with their investigation into allegations of racial profiling, and most arizonaiance like him over washington. and there's the deer in the light debate moment might have hurt a lesser candidate but the last poll we have on her governor's race, it has her crushing the democrat by 57-38%. while that poll admittedly was done prior to brewer's recent stumbles, scott rasmus son told us today out-of-state critics might as well shut up. it's similar to a family where members can say stuff about each other but outsiders cannot. so there's really nothing that could happen where she could lose that seat to a democrat this year. which leaves me, folks, to the larger point, watch. >> absolutely no doubt at this point, it's a republican year. and very probably a big republican year. >> which brings us to republican strategist noel and susan. welcome. you first. welcome both of you. how dumb was it for the obama administration to take janet napolitano, a democratic governor from arizona who led the last race by 2- 1, take her out of that safe seat, put her in homeland security and allow the republican, jan brewer, to become the incumbent, gifting them with the state house in arizona? >> well, first of all let me state to another 40 great years congratulations. >> thank you. thank you. >> and you haven't changed at all. you look exactly the same to me. you know, hindsight is 20-20. i don't think the administration when they pick the governor to be homeland security secretary had any idea arizona was going to end up in such a bright spotlight and the doings of the arizona governor potentially were going to become a major national issue and in a way hurt this administration. so hindsight is 20-20. >> give the job to a democratic in line, it would seem to me. >> usually we do that but clearly they wanted governor ma poll taken no. what can i say. >> and the fact she was so ill-prepared and still continues to prosper, is that a symptom or a symbol or an example of how bad it's going to be for democrats in november? >> absolutely. this is a sampling. she blundered the debate. she made a goofball out of herself we all thought. but it's a year for the republicans. even on a gallop poll they are basically saying that any republican running against any democrat is ahead. i think everyone that voted for a democrat or voted for obama pretty much as voter remorse. and they are look for a republican to actually make the change now. >> is this all, susan, about immigration in arizona? >> well, i think she became a symbol. you know, this is not all -- all politics is local. i know nicole is referring to the generic gallop poll. but generic candidates don't run or they don't win, it's real, live people n arizona somebody like jan brewer has become a powerful symbol, and that's why even if she has a senior moment in the debate or comes up with be headings that didn't happen, i think that scott rasmussen is probably, as usual, right that people like me aren't going to have any impact on that race and we shouldn't. >> relevance of the discussion is a new hit movie out that some see as having a secret agenda. here's greg. >> the special cinco demayo message. >> "machete" has garnered plenty of attention with over the top sex scenes and gore but also a sub scene and that's immigration. >> every time they cross our border it's an overt act of terrorism. >> and steven is a fox news contributor, and he's also an actor. so tell me about "machete" and its message. what is it saying to people? >> like you said, you are dealing with a film that's 90% decaptation, so you have to take it with a grain of salt but it deals with immigration. >> do you think what you are doing is right, taking your brothers and sisters in, transporting them back to their own personal health. >> it's the law. >> all americans, particularly white americans in this film, bad. the mexicans are supposed to be the heros who happen to be illegal immigrants in the movie. >> number two in the box office, critics say machete is deadvice i have, beyond the norm. >> and they say let's examine immigration seriously. people are going there to see some smut. >> the scavengers, leeches, parasites are walking away with your money while you are left with the change. >> it ain't right. >> go over the characters here. "machete" is the illegal immigrant coming to better his life and he's fighting off american joe, the vigilante, led by john johnson. they want to kill anybody with pigmentation in their skin. and many decaptations, stabbings and boobs. >> how did they get lindsey lohan to stand up straight? >> i have no idea. they probably asked her father, can you nudge her along? >> obvious references to minutemen who hunt and kill illegals, including a pregnant woman, who say welcome to mesh, are sure to garner controversy and headlines. but it is meant to be camp. >> now you want me to help you kill all these men? >> yes, padre. >> this is what i can do. >> he's a close personal friend. >> he makes great hot sauce. if you have watching, i love your hot sauce. >> it's part after series. the director calls it his movies. over the top movie scenes in terms of sex and violence, and he was also making a political statement. >> with a sledgehammer. >> and a machete. >> and a machete. thanks nicole and susan. up next, as you enjoy -- no, as you enjoy your holiday on vacation or at home, my wife and i would like to invite you into our house. that's coming [ female announcer ] se is the only furniture lish with febreze freshness. it helps eliminate odors while you clean and condition. you may never go back to your old furniture polish. ♪ science!
