of the mid-term campaign, this incident, and i hesitate to say it will be, it s october 25th these days. i apologize for my space time 12 days, caravan was october surprise one. this is october surprise two. where does this go? you know, is this going to be a motivating voting issue for people? it s hard to see that. except it does shine a light on what president trump s biggest deficiency is, and he just doesn t step forward and do what s needed. and i think this has been something that s been made abjectly clear repeatedly and most recently 12 days before the mid-term. does that affect how people are going to vote? hard for me to see that. especially as you say 12 days is trump time. i had a colleague share with me something a strategist shared with her who said the most important group of people right now are remorseful women.
