i ll show you the real clear politics average of this race right now. keep in mind that this is the average of polls before those debates took place. but it does show debbie stabenow in the lead 54%. you are trailing at 37 1/2%, john. how hopeful are you that you can flip this seat blue to red? very hopeful. i put my hope in the lord and the thing is the result is not up to us but the race is. but the thing is the momentum that we re feeling. we cut that lead in half. the most recent poll shows me in single digits nine points and doubled her up in fundraising. our 3.6 to her 1.8. we ll have the resources down the stretch. people with our message is resonating. not a black or white message but a red, white and blue message. we need leadership in washington that will bring us together to bring resources back to the state of michigan. i look forward to my leadership
