Recapture the senate, and they have some inadvertent help from the president. This is a referendum on obamas hyper liberalism and were six years in, we see the results of obama care, we see the results of the stimulus, i dont have to go through all the scandals abroad and here at home. This is liberalism on trial. Liberalism on trial, and barack obama on the ballot whether he likes it or not. Should we call the first witness for this trial, bob beckle, i like these results, but dont through the special election coverage on fox news, bob and i are going to be seated with charles krauthammer, so bob will get a chance to talk to one of his five heros. When charles says liberalism is on trial, you know, hes usually not given to hyperbole, but this is ridiculous. Every cycle has somebody in the white house and somebody gets beaten and so you say, conservativism is on trial, liberalism is on trial, its not on trial, very few people are going to be voting, if that was the case, liberalism won then three years ago didnt they . Its a referendum on failure, because the fact is president obama, he actually did not he got all of his ideas through, he chased his dream, which turned out to be our nightmare. Whats interesting, the amazing feature of this administration is that no one cares. Nobody cares. How many people voted for obama who have no interest in his success or his failure . To them the election was a one night stand and the rest of the country got knocked up. But theres nobody who really gives a damn. Thats what blows my mind. Youre hitting very close to home when you say things like that. The balance of power in play, key states will be coming in in about an hour and we may know what direction this is going to go. What do the republicans need to get and what do you think they have so far . The republicans need to pick up six to get the senate back. All 435 constitutional seats are up, 233 now in the hands of republicans, it looks like there could be 10 more, that will be good as bob well knows, if there are 20 to 25 tea party voting caucus, you can actually pass it up in the house without the tea party. The 26th gubernatorial race, that one, the democrats may pick up one, maybe two. Is barack obama on the ballot . If theres no better indication that barack obama is in fact on the ballot, look no further than North Carolina where kay hagan had an ad that she was playing on tv. Tom tillis was smart enough to realize there was a referendum in the senate race. If you want more of barack ob a obama, elect kay hagan. Would you agree that Barack Obamas 38th or 37 Approval Rating is definitely on the ballot across the country . You have to look at where these radio spots were played. They were on the black belt on the virginiaNorth Carolina border where theyre about 90 black. And it makes a lot of sense. But for tillis to play it . I mean whos going to care about tillis except for tillis people . The point is, he realized that was a negative for kay ha zbrks the cbs news poll says the number one thing that the congress should address immediately, the economy by 38 , next is health care, 23 , and if you go to usa today poll, saying if theres one thing a Republican Senate should tackle, it would be a job creation bill, next would be national security, immigration would be third. Another bit of news today that i thought was interesting, i had an interview this morning with orman, the independent candidate, he backed off from are you going to caucus with the democrats, and then you had Vice President biden make these comments, lets take a listen and get your reaction. I think we have a chance of picking up, you know, an inspect who will be with us in the state of kansas, so i think well end up with 52, about in that range, democratic votes. Then what happened from that . Well, kansas has been normally, you wouldnt even talk about kansas, because it would be a reliably republican state. Pat roberts, whos the incumbent is in the race of his life, and i think hell probably pull it out. But this orman character, because hes an independent and he refuses to tell the voters of kansas whether he would caucus with the democrats or republicans as if he is waiting to see who the winner is and thats who hell decide to caucus with. Maybe the voters in kansas, who are on the fence, they may not like roberts, maybe well give this independent guy a try. He may not be so independent. But the white house, the political operation has not been so tight. They had several mistakes including bruce braley in iowa. Theyve got a lot of other things going on in the white house, and this campaign is probably the last priority on their list. Sure enough, you can put your money on it, if orman gets in, hes going to caucus with the democrats, so biden just tried a little bit of uncle joe truth serum. He underlines the fact that we brought up many times before, that for a democrat or a liberal to win, they have to wear a disguise, because they know they are so unpopular, they have to pretend to be Something Else in order to get through the door. They run right and then they act left. Its also safe to say that the republicans are not in terribly good shape. This is not a race on parties, if there were, nobody would vote. Thats not the case all the time. Not all the time, but i think in kansas, i think this guy will actually caucus with the party that has power. If for no other reason cant you just watch your language, dana. Is that another one of those words i dont know the origin of . Lame. I would like to see somebody say some principles, what do you stand for, who are you going to caucus as . You got the prom date on the brady bunch, who was waiting and then when marsha got her nose broken, he decided to go with another girl. The question of obama care, minimum wage, he wont take a position, because he says when he gets there, hell figure out where he wants to caucus. Joe biden, for joe bideni to be right, they would have to pick up North Carolina, kansas with orman, but they would have to go with the democrats. Louisiana and iowa, that would be a very, very big night for the democrats if that happened. Oh, sure. But conversely, if democrats lose in New Hampshire and North Carolina, its katie bar the door. The arremargin of getting there appreciably smaller, youre probably going to have a 50vote republican number in the senate, and you have to wait for a runoff, some of these states trigger automatic vote recounts with in 1 or less, and when you talk about alaska, you got to get some votes out there from ways out there in the tundra, it could be a very late night. It will be interesting to see what the caribou have decided. I would vote for them. One thing we havent talked about is state legislatures. And the republicans have the majority of governor ships, they might lose, the democrats might pick up one. But the governors races have actually been pretty good for republicans, but we dont talk too much about the state legislatures. Those are almost going to be uniformly republican majorities across the board, and that matters because state legislators that are republican, that help a republican governor actually can get policies put forward. That matters then for the future. Because governors that have experience of accomplishment and management tend to make good candidates, as we look ahead into the future, to 2016 and 2020, these governors races will be important. There are five states that have a minimum wage initiative. I bet republicans vote for it. Marijuana in a couple of states, district of columbia, alaska, oregon and florida, medical. Medical marijuana to make it legal. Do you think, bob, actually greg, i was going to ask about that d. C. Legalization of marijuana, do you think that will pass in d. C. . You have lived there for a while. I guess so. The tide is turning, i think people are less inclicned to lok at it as something that isnt so evil. On Animal Planet right now, they are going to have a marathon of finding bigfoot, they have had sightings in new jersey, santa cruz and massachusetts. Pretty sure its a shirtless shepard smith, hes hairier than a turkish bath shower drain. Thats going to go over well. Theres going to be pay back for that. Youre saying its low turnout, low turnout. Why is it going to be low turnout and where are all your democrats . The turnout is going to be different state by state. You always hear this during the day, gosh, its the biggest turnout ever. My point is, the liberals have been saying, well the reason why this is so skewed to the republicans this time is because its going to be a low turnout. If thats the case democrats dont have a lot of first of all, most democrats are running in some very difficult states and they dont have a whole lot to be out there cheering about. But the good news for democrats is if they dont vote today, they have until tomorrow to vote, thats the new rule, so 8 00 tomorrow, democrats can still vote. Republicans need to vote today, and democrats need to vote tomorrow. I just wanted to get that out there. Before we forgot. If i was still in the business, this would be an easy call. I was serious. Next, republicans are poised to make history with a number of races tonight, danas going to tell you how when we come back, stay with us if you dare. I make a lot of purchases for my business. And i get a lot in return with ink plus from chase. Like 50,000 bonus points when i spent 5,000 in the first 3 months after i opened my account. And i earn 5 times the rewards on internet, phone services and at Office Supply stores. With ink plus i can choose how to redeem my points. Travel, gift cards, even cash back. And my rewards points wont expire. So you can make owning a business even more rewarding. Ink from chase. So you can. Hello. Im an idaho potato farmer and our big idaho potato truck is still missing. So my buddy here is going to help me find it. Here we go. Woo who, woah, woah, woah. Its out there somewhere spreading the word about americas favorite potatoes heart healthy idaho potatoes and the american heart associations go red for women campaign. If you see it i hope youll let us know. Always look for the grown in idaho seal. If aunder a microscope, put we can see all the bacteria that still exists. Polidents unique micro clean formula works in just 3 minutes, killing 99. 99 of odor causing bacteria. For a cleaner, fresher, brighter denture everyday. By playing that song, we have guaranteed any friend Nick Gillespie will pin. They could also make history in a number of races, elise ste stephonic. Sewn and tim scott was appointed to senate in South Carolina last year, but today hes expected to be elected to the post. The first black senator ever from the state. And, greg, the first two have served in both the house and the senate. You could say, i think you would even say that they have done a better job this year. Yes. The party needed new blood and i dont mean a transfusion from chuck grassley, they need more women, they need more blacks. The big zeal is that the people who are coming to the Republican Party, are coming despite the abuse they get. The way liberals hate black conservatives more than they hate white racists, they are called horrible names, even british jerks like Russell Brand go after them, its open season on black conservatives, for women, conservative women, i mean youre not really a woman unless you adored lena dunham. So it takes incredible bravery, those are the trail blazers for the Republican Party to with stand the abuse that they get from their peers who are generally in their age group or within their group in general, who are not like them. So these are the real brave people and we should salute them. Its not easy to run for congress, bob. What do you think . I was accused of being too low key in the first block because i was trying to be analytic analytical. You said the first, the first, the first, but it should have started years ago. If you had enough of them in there, you wouldnt be abusing them. Remember when tim scott was nominated to the post and the terrible things that were said about him . Today, we cant do anything got the past, the past is the past. Remember when we started the kkk . Oh, yeah, that was the democrats. You cant do anything about the past, but the fact is this is 2014, and this should have been done earlier, but its a start. I dont think its going to be a ground swell, were talking about a very small percentage of people and the democrats have been doing this for a long time. You got to be positive about this tremendous accomplishment. I encourage anybody who wants to be involved in politics, and think they can serve, have the courage. I could make some comments about scott which were terrible, i should havent said them, but i said it because our view of this is that republicans have never set foot in black territory, they have except for rachbd paul. Thats totally unfair. The whole faith based initialive because trying to help the you cannot cam pain in black if you have a democratic candidate and you taking a black message to if republicans have a successful night, theyll have ten women, four women, three gays, and three millennials, the latin america vote is starting to move to the gop because its a natural fit, but theyre frankly upset for the last six years they have been promised Immigration Reform and they havent gotten it. Every single month, 66,000 latinos turn 18 years old. So their average voting age is 27 years old. Whereas the american electorate is 40 years of age. If you get the latinamerican vote to move over to the gop what is your emphasis on their moving to the Republican Party. Bob, have you not heard that they have wanted Immigration Reform and have been promised they blame the republicans who are denying it to them. Took it off the table, absolutely. Promised them, they took it off the table and now theyre looking to be courted for a party thats going to be in particular Pay Attention to the wants and needs of the latino community. The best thing the Republican Party can do, whether its far right or center rice is to embrace that vote, there are a Immigration Reform is not the only policy. There are ways to encourage hispanics to vote for republican policies if theyre explained in a way that shows them that you want better schools, the teachers unions are a problem but were willing to try to fix that. You want to keep more of your money in your own pocket, in our state thats why the governors are actually so successful, republican governors and two governor who is arent getting much credit this time around, nikki haley, shes a governor, shes going to sail away with it tonight and suzanna martinez, new mexico they dont get any attention because their races were easy, but it shouldnt have been necessarily that easy for them. A republican would have to drop dead in front of the railroad when you think about it, what a disadvantage conservatives have, imagine if you play pro football and you hated the sport, thats a conservative politician. You are playing a game, a realm that you despise. And thats what that stop whining about this and do something about it. I saw you whining all last week. I beg your pardon. I got to run, should republicans compromise on the president s agenda if they win back the senate tonight . Why would they. Man i know the name of eight princesses. Im on expert on softball. And tea parties. Ill have more awkward conversations than im equipped for, because im raising two girls on my own. Ill worry about the economy more than a few times before theyre grown. But its for them, so ive found a way. Who matters most to you says the most about you. At massmutual were owned by our policyowners, and they matter most to us. Ready to plan for your future . Well help you get there. Anything short of a blowout for republicans is bad and heres why. After six years of anything, america gets bored, thats why president s should only get one term. If you had a breed of dog that stayed a puppy forever, you would eat it by the six years. At least the president would. I kid the dog eater. Lessons must be earned the lessons, you won now not because your vision rules, but because obamas so weak. If this were lets make a deal, the republicans are whats behind door number two, after door number one revealed a bag of snakes filled with spiders. The demsr losing and a republican victory is still somehow a win for obama. What are they going to do about immigration, what are they going to do about minute mum wage, both parties have taked out positions at either end of the spectrum, and refusing to meet in the middle. The country votes thumbs down on obama, which really means thumbs up, and when a republican wins, you if only putin, air rain and isis felt that way, we would be losing our way to victory, so the opponent is already prepping your democrat mize, 2014 is not actually the 2016 is where your head must be, skip symbolic battles and small skirmishes, theyre just traps. Instead, find a candidate and their message. The pass is clearing, people are ready, now get to work and get the big one for a change. She said, this is the worst thing you have ever read. No, i didnt say that. And actually listening to it wasnt as bad as when i read it. I didnt like your opening line, where you said that anything less than a blowout is i sort of feel like we have to look at the facts in context. Since 1980, republicans have never been able to pick off more than two incumbents at a time. Incumbents are very, very hard to beat whether youre a republican or a democrat. I agree with you about the tom brokaw point, why isnt the question, what can president obama do now to meet the republicans partway on some of these issues, because i do think theyre going to send him a lot of legislation and hell have to decide whether to vote for them or not. I think we should not jump on the republicans, one night, say you won some races, but a candidate will emerge, but that doesnt have to start tomorrow. Shouldnt democrats be hard on republicans so they dont blow it in the next two years . The republicans get the house and the senate, and then theyre going to come out and be very blustery, theyre going to get impeachment, start that lawsuit, assaying theyre going to fund obama care. What would be nice if they came out and said, we have a couple of things that maybe you could meet us, barack obama at least partway, Keystone Pipeline, offshore drilling, things
