that s different from delaware. that s a fascinating race. we ll see how that plays out. brian: the thing in delaware is that the word is, according to guys that watch, it turns out that o donnell is not electable when it comes to the general, they don t feel, as opposed to where castle would have a better chance. well, delaware is an odd state, it s more like new hampshire than alabama. so it s a different state. look, i say this to the establishment republicans who are busy trashing christine o donnell. they created this situation. all right? they created a situation, an atmosphere where people are fed up with the party favorites. that s what s happened. christine o donnell walks into the situation in delaware where people say, okay, mike castle, been there, done that. he s part of the problem. we need a new solution. and it remains to be seen whether christine o donnell could win in a general election.
he s not going to say he s for it. the president is not going to say anything. the last time he said something, it ended up looking like a flip-flop. the imam kind of doesn t agree with his own comments himself. after he gave those comments at the council for relations he came out and said he was still exploring all options. which one is it? you want us to build the mosque there or you don t. his wife was questioned by reporters and she said we re still exploring all options. the whole thing remains somewhat still in the air. a new book out and you just saw the clip from his show, pin heads and patriots. joining us in about 20 minutes. the most important thing to emerge yesterday is the imam may be looking to delay the project. a delay could be out there. going to consult everybody
today a $6 billion arms deal with saudi arabia, biggest in our history, we sell saudi arabia f-15 fighter jets and black hawk helicopters and other weapons that will one day be used against us. planning ahead, thinking ahead, yes. that s a good point. if it weren t so funny, right? part of the thing with the jets, i think they stop working in a certain amount of time, like three years. just stop working. stop working. need us to keep it going. you make it sound like a taxi cab, it s got a meter in it. you need a new one, you gotta come back to us. congratulations, $60 billion of that stuff, you got three years. headline, today the president heads to philadelphia to make his second back-to-school speech this year. remember how well it went last
thought he was going to coast. do you think he was coasting, saying i ve got this thing? i just think it s an anti-incumbent mood. anyone in office now is going to be at a disadvantage. that s why these ads matter so much and why they re spending millions of dollars. more money will be spent on political ads than mcdonald s, burger king, g.m. more spent than we ve ever spent on political advertising and it s going to make a difference in races like this. still television the medium. even though we watch less tv we pay attention to the ads and those ads work. frank, you work. we appreciate it. coming up straight ahead, we forge ahead. michelle obama said she d stay off the campaign trail. why the first lady could be playing the role of food police. laura will join us the top of the hour. and also this guy named bill o reilly joins us on the couch. that s the guy in the back. vo: what is the good egg project?
what they wish they were dealt. peter: why is he taking a shot at the advisors for the president? here is what i say about him, number one, he seems to be such a nice guy. good guy. number two, where was all of this criticism when it counted? frankly, when he voted for obamacare? there were a lot of us who are saying to people like evan bayh and jim webb who are supposed to be these great forces in the democratic party, stop the madness. this thing is going to implode. it s a disaster for the country. they went ahead and followed the party line. so now for him to come forward and say, well, maybe they bit off more than they could chew and these guys were dealt a tough hand, you know who else was dealt a tough hand in the fall of excuse me, spring of 2001? george w. bush. stock market collapse, then we had 9-11, then later on we had katrina. i don t remember people feeling sorry for george w. bush, with all due respect to evan bayh. it would have been nice to hear this a year ago.
