Isnt this a discussion . See the moments getting a lot of attention this morning and how the president ial candidates are now reacting. Were live with the details. Good morning, everyone. Were going to start this wednesday with Hurricane Matthew. The powerful storm spinning in the caribbean and prompting action here in the u. S. Right now matthew is threatening the bahamas with sustained winds of 125 miles an hour. Today those islands will see heavy rain and powerful storm surge. Parts of cuba have received more than a foot of rain. At least 11 deaths are being blamed on matthew but that is expected to rise. Property the worst of the damage so far is in remote areas of haiti. The heavy rain caused flooding, driving desperately poor residents from whatever was left of their homes. Officials say matthews aftermath is haitis worst humanitarian crisis since the catastrophic earthquake there in 2010. And there are hurricane warnings posted now for portions of floridas east coast, as well. From there all the way up to North Carolina. Officials have been getting the word out. Their message, the storm is on the way and needs to be taken seriously. Overnight, preparing for a direct impact. Officials sounding the alarm as Hurricane Matthew puts the u. S. In its bullseye. This is very serious and you need to prepare and protect you and your families. Reporter people from the florida keys to North Carolina boarding up their homes and filling up their cars. At this gas station near miami theres only premium left. Its kind of mad a mad house. So i dont have a choice. I got to get a little to get me to the next station. Reporter and at this costco station, drivers are waiting in line for more than an hour. This morning this is what Grocery Stores like like up and down the coast. Empty shelves as people stock up on the essentials. Its crazy. All the water gone. Reporter the governors of four states, florida, georgia and the carolinas declaring states of emergency. If youre able to leave and go today, do that. Dont take a chance. Reporter evacuations will begin this afternoon in south carolina. Governor nikki haley has closed all schools along the coast and ordered more than 1 Million People to get away from the shoreline. Wherever you are on the coast, we want you to get 100 miles away from that. Reporter farmers in North Carolina fearful of what matthew could do to their crops. Its got the potential to just devastate the crop entirely. The good lord is going to do what hes going to do to us and were just going to have to keep the faith. And luckily we should say there is still some time to prepare for the hurricane before it begins affecting the southern Atlantic Coast. Lets get some details now on what to expect from accuweathers paul williams. Good morning, paul. Good morning to you, as well, diane, kendis. Taking a look at all these Spaghetti Models following whats going to be expected with matthew across the bahamas and right along the east coast. We have a few models indicating it may go straight up. All of them looking pretty favorable that its going to hug right along the east coast and while its marching through the bahamas, flooding rain, damaging winds, dangerous storm surge and Power Outages specifically for extreme risk areas which include freeport as well as nassau and actually looking for a modal risk right over towards miami. Then were expecting that to ride right along the entire coast friday going into saturday up towards myrtle beach with massive Power Outages and coastal flooding. Diane, kendis. All right, paul, thanks. And we turn now to the Vice President ial nominees repeatedly clashing on that debate stage. It was really intense. It was a show down that was intense last night between mike pence and tim kaine. Taking on the issues and taking their best shots. Abcs maggie rulli joins us now from farmville, virginia, with the highlights. Maggie, good morning. Reporter good morning, kendis and diane. Like you said, many were expecting a more mildmannered conversation between the Vice President s last night at the debate, but what we got was anything but quiet. That is absolutely false and you know it. Its absolutely true. You know that, governor. Gentlemen, please. Reporter elbows flying, insults at the ready. Last night turned into a fiery battle. Hillary clintons running mate tim kaine becoming an attack dog forcing republican mike pence to defend donald trump. On the economy, there is a fundamental choice for the american electorate. Do you want a youre hired president in Hillary Clinton or a youre fired president in donald trump. Reporter pence didnt take the debate and unlike the criticism against his boss last week, trumps number two remained steady. Im happy to defend him. Most of what you said is completely false. Reporter the pair clashing over trumps tacks. He used the tax code just the way its supposed to be used and did it brilliantly. How do you know that . We havent seen his tax returns. Reporter and immigration. Senator, we have a deportation force, its called immigrations and customs enforcement. Reporter kaine also challenging pence over what he claims to be trumps laundry list of insults. I cant imagine how governor pence can defend the insult driven selfish me first style of donald trump. Reporter pence ready with a response. For you and Hillary Clinton would know a lot about an insult driven campaign. It really is remarkable. Reporter as the two vp candidates sparred on stage over which campaign was more insulting, donald trump was active online retweeting this about kaines looks. Kaine looks like an evil crook out of the batman movies and the Clinton Campaign quickly responding, donalds literally doing it right now. Clinton and trump will get the chance to face off again in person at the debate this sunday in st. Louis. Kendis and diane. Absolutely, and then they have another one after that. Maggie rulli, live for us in farmville, virginia. Thank you. And like most debates, the selection, the candidates and issues are being discussed on social media, as well. Yeah, on facebook, most of the posts were about taxes, russia and isis. Then on twitter, pence gained 22,000 followers. During the debate kaine gained 15,000 followers and were also getting a sense of the publics reaction to Donald Trumps assertion that he is smart for not paying taxes. A new poll shows 46 of americans side with trumps statement, but 67 say a president ial candidate who doesnt pay taxes is selfish and 61 say its unpatriotic. This as trump tries to shift the blame over to Hillary Clinton. She complains about how i have used the tax laws of this country to my benefit, then i ask a simple question, why didnt she ever try to change those laws so i couldnt use them . First Lady Michelle obama also weighed in on the issue while campaigning for clinton in North Carolina. The first lady called on voters to elect someone who would close tax loopholes for the wealthy. Because not paying taxes for years and years while the rest of us pay our fair share doesnt make you smarter than the rest of us. Well, the first lady also railed against trumps late night twitter rant against a former miss universe, and she tapped her microphone, an apparent nod to trumps complaints about his mike during last weeks debate.

Time to check the pulse starting with the republicans getting a little ahead of themselves by prematurely declaring the winner of the debate. The humble brag before the debate, you might say.

Now, the page was taken down but the site later declared pence the winner once again, this time waiting until after the debate. All right. So bed, bath beyond is trying to move away from its coupon program. The retailer is testing a new 29 per year Loyalty Program. Those 20 off coupons you get in the mail are apparently costing the company some money. Analysts say customers have reached the point where they wont buy anything without a coupon. The beyond plus Loyalty Program would still allow shoppers to receive discounts. Of course, you have to pay to be part of the Loyalty Program. So, its all one way of getting you to go into the store there and hook you again. Yeah, i mean, i do have to say, though, i understand their point because im a little reluctant myself to buy things in bed, bath beyond without the coupon.

For those counting which i love that. By the way by the way, its less than a banana. Around 90 calories. Uhhuh. Skinny prosecco is available in a growing number of british stores. No word on when it could be launched in the u. S. But the takeaway is, prosecco healthier for you than a banana so we should all start our morning off with prosecco. But it makes you wonder, if thats 67 calories, how much does a normal glass of prosecco have caloriewise . I dont think i want to know that. I dont know and then when you add the orange juice in there because you have to for your mimosa. Why would you contaminate prosecco with orange juice . It just gets in the way. Its great.
