That doesnt mean the wizards shouldnt expect a win. And right after the break im going to talk with face the nation host John Dickerson about the president s comments on face the nation and maybe a curve ball or two because hes als were watching this action to the west. Well give you the hour by hour forecast on that and talk about happened to be majority black and latino. Turns out the immigrant from africa is a lot more likely to have a College Degree than an american. Hoping the president s comments dont tarnish it. And why dont we take this opportunity to update you on tonights poll question. Are you offended by President Trumps alleged vulgarity spelled out on your screen . Weve seen a big swing in the last 30 minutes. 88 of you say you are not. President trump reportedly using vulgar language described nations thats dominated social media. Im sure youve heard by now. Face the nation host John Dickerson. So john, i wonder about the practical effect of these comments. We know were talking about it. We know that politicians are talking about it but is it taking time away from talking about and doing the important things that need to happen right now . Government shut down . Daca . Border security . I guess the practical effect is not just bad language its just the mind set of grouping people based on the color of their skin or where they are from is amp thet cal in the way that most americans think of their country and certainly that kind of vulgar language talking about groups of people in that vulgar way is not a way and most people associate that behavior with the president. It puts republicans in a tricky spot because theyre running for reelection in 2018 and they worry about being tied to the president. A president that might turn off lots create a lot of enthusiasm in democratic voters who see this kind of behavior and who get offended at a deep personal level and then turn out to vote against republicans. Thats the worry for republicans. For democrats they worry do they want to do any kind of a deal with this president. Because their voters may say why are you agreeing to a deal with the president who has said these kinds of things and this is of course in a context which is not the first time the president has done this. He started his campaign by saying that mexican undocumented immigrants were rapists and murderers and has had a series of incidents between then and now in which hes characterized people often or almost exclusively people who have a different color skin in these kinds of ways and so for democratic voters who find that offensive they dont want to see that. Were also dealing with youre leaving the dmv for new york city. Hosting cbs this morning. I just want to ask you, why does that job appeal to you . Well, thats right, i was born here and ibeen here for the last 22 years. Im moving up to new york. It appeals to me because i get to wake up every day and look at all the stories in front of us and for two hours get to talk about those stories, what interests me, what i want to find a little bit more out about and i also get to join gale and nora who are kind of equally curious in whats happening. And if we dont get to some issue or topic weve got two hours the next day. Politics will be a big part of that but then theres all the other parts of the american story that we dont get to talk about. Were all looking forward to seeing more of you and were going to see you actually for face the nation. See you then. Now wusa 9s first alert weather. Live look outside.

It went live last wednesday. The next morning on the apple charts it was the number one pod cast in the country. I was pretty quickly told im going to be a texter and that weve hit number one. This week its held steady at 2. Imagine that its wednesday october 24th, 1962. We dont know apples algorithm and were waiting for the company to call us back.

Not bad for a guy whose day job is fundraising at smu. This is number one favorite hobby in the country. In a 12 by 16 room. Which is becoming the problem for a lot of america.
