the house is in play. both sides are brainstorming. i can t wait to run ads against democrats saying they want to abolish the va, medicaid part d, complete government control of your health care and raise a trillion dollars in taxes. republicans had a chance and blew it is the counterpoint from the left. they had unified, controlled government and haven t been able to get a single thing done. democrats are going to contrast that with a better deal. as democratic congressional candidates hope for their best showing at the ballot box in a decade, the democratic national committee just had their worst earning july in a decade. numbers show the dnc has raised half as much money as the rnc so far this year. bret: peter doocy in california, thank you. up next, a major development in the barcelona terror investigation. here s what some of our fox affiliates are covering. fox 11 in los angeles, someone has placed a piano at the cobra
