that was a good one. if you are in the obama hotel suite, what is one thing you d tell him to do? bob: take as many chemicals as he possibly could. no. i think what happened, he was prepared the last time. he didn t show up. something happened when he stepped out on the stage and he wasn t focused. this time he is focused. i talked to people around him and said he is focused and understands that this is the big deal for him. i suspect he will be aggressive with romney. but i think he is going to use self-deprecating humor. at the beginning of the debate about what happened in the first debate. he will push romney hard to explain himself. dana: same question to you in the romney area. eric: i d do what i did the last time. romney came out and hest aggressive. he stuck to the facts and script. but i think romney, you have
brian: question for greg. have you been embraced by the other members of the media. be honest. they are huge fans. more fans of me than the show. they can t stand the five. they seem to love me. eric: we re weighing you down, gutfeld. greg: they really hate, they hate dana. they just can t stand her. eric: we got to go. you know what you will hate? you ll hate the fact we re here now and dennis miller is standing off-camera over there. dana: it is him! eric: next time. one more thing coming up next. bob: there is not a right winger. at all.
format to engage voter one-on-one. he can t do it. eric: i trean question, i ll remember that question. you know what we ll do? poll the response. i don t remember it being excellent. dana: i think if she is tired imagine how bob feels. bob: tell me about it. bob i don t believe that romney can t engage with people. remember at the republican convention they had the personalest to moanials of people who had been touched by romney? both of them have the ability to do that. romney might have the better advantage on that, because he has been out on the campaign trail talking to people a lot more than president obama has been able to. brian: greg, ask you a question. with all of your sources on the ground in hempstead, how you keep them straight i don t know. i have a hunch. president brings up wall street against main street and romney s taxes again, all the same thing. the best of as in front of everyone because he knows
very hard to go negative. brian: i will be nice to you, you asked the question. i m mean to you because you re the opponent. bob: one thing we forget from the poll, romney is not getting as many men as republicans do. he needs more men. eric: doesn t matter. doesn t matter. you know it doesn t now in states decided now. what matters is the swing state. if you look at swing state polling women are 48-49, obama/romney. men are heavily skewed. dana: can i get greg back in here before we go? bob: must we? dana: yes, and i have one more question for him to answer. obama has a tough job in the campaign and debate. he has to do what the liberals want to say the four years are good and talk about the record. at the same time, he talked to skeptical public who does not think it s been good.
and the man for change i voted for. deeply disappointed with where we are right now. my husband and i joked for years we thought we were beyond the hot dogs and beans era of our lives but frankly it s starting to knock on our door and ring true that might be where we are headed again. quite frankly, mr. president, i need you to answer this honestly. is this my new reality? eric: weigh in on that one? andrea: he is much more apt to get a question like that than romney, i think because of the economy. but he has to be careful not to go too aggressive on romne romney. he has to be negative by going positive. that s hard to do. he has to have a decisive win this evening. it cannot be another tie. a lot of voters have already made up their minds. bob: what we didn t do as usual is to show obama s response, which was excellent to that question. i think he will do very well in that format. that requires romney, this
