nobody would believe it. incumbent democrat joe donnelly has run as a moderate. analysts say he has to run as a moderate in a state that voted so heavily in favor of president trump. now, donnelly said he voted with the president 62% of the time. donnelly voted against the confirmation of brett kavanaugh to the supreme court. that prompted both mike braun and the president to say is he a liberal in sync with schumer. out of sing sync with voters. guys, back to you. katie: mike, thank you very much. ed: ever president before a big midterm likes to get out on the road. i have never seen a president of either party. pete: every president does. sometimes they hedge their bets or only go here. is he going everywhere. ed: he has been to some of these places twice, florida, indiana, state big senate races. big senate and gubernatorial battles. he promises, look, it s not
kavanaugh she was really one of the first democrats in a tough race to say i won t support brett kavanaugh. she didn t even hear him out and listen to the entire process before she came out opposed to him. what joe donnelly and claire mccaskill realizes is that their on stoition brett kavanaugh and their support of schumer in this crazy agenda is not popular back home. ed: susan, let s turn to the house. nancy pelosi would be the speaker if democrats take the house and there would have to be a vote. here is how confident she was on the colbert show the other night. watch. let me say, this up until today, i would have said if the election were held today, we would win. now i m saying we will win. he haded what he struck me about that susan, is stephen colbert very anti-trump called her out and said where are you going to do this celebration on the fireworks barge that hillary clinton rent the thought 2016? he is not buying it.
candidate tries to set out and point out what s unique about their particular race. and it s not throwing people under the bus. it s saying what s unique about me? and i think, unfortunately, what s happening in politics in general, is that we talk about people. we name-call. and i think it s just gotten nasty all across the border. so it s not a new strategy. it s just what can i too to win? ed: well, sure. it s been nasty. matt, i want to bring you in, where was claire mccaskill when ted cruz and his wife were being run out of a restaurant? where was claire mccaskill when there were gang rape allegations without any evidence at all? that s right. ed: lodged against brett kavanaugh. where was claire mccaskill. i just came back from kansas last night. we had kansas city cpac. people are really fired up in missouri about claire mccaskill because she does this every six years. she goes back to missouri and acts like she is a moderate. do you know what? she has a 4% rating with the am
our campaign. todd: that said joe manchin did vote for brett kavanaugh for the supreme court. a very popular decision here in west virginia. how do you overcome that? i think the president talked about it yesterday. the president said that joe is never there when you need him. and, in fact, the vote occurred, the decision was made and then joe piled on. and voters want leadership. they don t want someone who is just going to waffle all the time. people know my record. i have actually taken the lead, the point on so many issues whether it s fighting the power plant to help protect our miners or really working fighting opioid epidemic more aggressively than anyone. i think voters know that they are going to go into the polls. i think the president gives us a huge turnout lift. todd: we did invite senator joe manchin to be with us on fox & friends we have not heard back yet. thank you very much. folks who want to know more patrick morrisey.com. we are going to win and help this pres
the radical left and cost of healthcare, border security, and people are actually worried that social security and medicare are not going to be there when they need it. ironically jobs and the economy, the thing i know the most about is so good, that it s ranked in there about the same. normally that would be almost double the concern of any other issue. so it s a unique year and we, as conservatives, i think, need to tout that a little more. katie: what has been the turning point in this race? justice kavanaugh and senator donnelly voting against him? is it the economy? is it president trump getting in and really getting his hands dirty and campaigning on your behalf? whats would really crux here that has pulled you so close in the polling? the measurable difference would have been the kavanaugh hearings. from the time that senator donnelly was out there talking about voting against it, we could see the dynamics start to change. i think that gave a boost to every race across the
