you could have a very different election. so far it s all been in the democrats favor. in the last four weeks, it may shift. here s one pole. job approval is out today and job approval for the president, 41-53. at that i ll approval number, how does that play across the country? each state, there is a different trump approval and how it factors. the president is back to sort of the upper end of his range, approaching the upper end of his range. he has lived essentially 38, 42 or 43%. if i can pause at this, and this is just a theory i have and i don t know if it will hold but i think arguably, the best part about the cavanaugh kavanaugh t all this explosion, the biggest political news story i can remember certainly in two years was this. we were talking about all of the
