	Okay, as a friend of mine says the mammoth poll, the mammoth, it's the Monmouth, Monmouth University poll, Indiana, Trump plus 11.
	It was 402.
	Indiana, likely voters, the margin of error plus or minus 4.9%.
	11 points.
	Indiana.
	One week before the election.
	You know, there's there's action in Florida, too, uh, folks.
	The Democrats have poured all kinds of money in this state to try to defeat Rubio because they think Hillary's gonna walk away with Florida.
	That doesn't look like the case now.
	And they thought she was so they weren't they they actually taken some money out of Florida and put it in Schumer didn't put it some other Senate races.
	And Rubio is still dwarfing somebody named Patrick Murphy, who is his uh is this the guy.
	You would know you watch local news and sports.
	You don't, okay.
	Then no, it's not the same guy or you don't watch it.
	It's it's not, it's it's not the sports.
	Okay, I thought maybe a sportscaster here had become a candidate.
	It's not the conservative Democrat.
	Okay, I didn't know.
	Well, anyway, they initially had poured a lot of money in here to defeat Rubio because they figured Trump's gonna take Florida down a tubes, and they want to make sure they took Rubio down a tubes, but now neither of those are happening.
	Rubio's still gonna win a 10-point lead.
	Is that right?
	So they take some money out of Florida and they're shifting it around in blue states.
	They're they're taking the money to Wisconsin and Michigan in Senate races.
	The Democrats are.
	And we got this 11-point lead in Indiana for Trump a week before the election.
	Somebody once said that the polls start getting more accurate about now.
	Uh no, it wasn't the never trump, never Trumpers didn't say that.
	I said, oh yes, that's right.
	I said that.
	I thought you meant somebody else might have said it too.
	No, I said it.
	That's true.
	Uh so let's go to the audio sound bites here.
	I want first before we get to the Pat Cadell, 1980 association.
	You just have to hear this.
	This is a montage from over the weekend of a bunch of people.
	See, oh, by the way, if you missed it, if you missed it, because I had to throw this in the last 30 seconds of the first hour.
	Maybe it was the last, yeah, last 30 seconds of the first hour.
	Donna Brazil will not be back on CNN, at least for the foreseeable future.
	The latest WikiLeaks document dump indicates that Donna Brazil has been sharing questions of upcoming debates with Democrats, Hillary Clinton, for a long time.
	Now she said that she knows persecution because she's a Christian woman.
	That didn't help Christian bakeries.
	It didn't help Christian photography shops.
	It didn't help Christian pizzerias.
	It was okay to persecute them, but Donovan, as a Christian woman, I know what it is to be persecuted, and I will not be.
	Well, now there's information that she didn't do it just once, but a whole bunch of times.
	CNN has said she won't be back, that they are very uncomfortable learning what is now coming out.
	Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't CNN, when this first happened, deny ever giving Donna Brazil a questions on debates that they were having.
	Didn't CNN say it can't possibly be true about Donna Brazil?
	This is after the first WikiLeaks leak, which indicated she had passed on one question.
	This was last week.
	And my memory is that CNN exonerated her by saying, no, no, no, no, no.
	She couldn't have, because we didn't give her the questions.
	Well, now they're troubled at CNN, to the point that Ms. Brazil will not be returning to CNN.
	so I guess she's now got to be content running the Democrat National Committee.
	They're blaming Roland Martin.
	Roland Martin being blamed.
	That's the guy over at New York one.
	He used to be at CNN, right?
	And they got rid of him at CNN for some reason.
	I don't know why the guy wrote.
	Oh, he said something about gays.
	Right.
	So they threw him in his Budweiser out of there.
	And so he's now over at New York 1, and now they're trying to say that Roland Martin is the one giving Brazil a questions.
	Well, Brazil's denying it left and right, doesn't matter.
	But CNN's very troubled now, folks.
	Very troubled.
	CNN's very nervous.
	And so she won't be back for a while.
	I'm sure they think it'll all be okay after the election.
	Anyway, montage, bunch of people from all over the place.
	CNN, Washington Post, New York Times, you name it, over the Comey announcement on Friday and what it means.
	This email scandal, is it baked in with voters?
	Most of this is baked into the cake.
	The damage of the emails, that's all baked in.
	The people who are for her already have this baked in.
	I think most of this is baked in.
	This is something that I think is relatively baked in.
	One of the things that we're saying, hoping, praying, is that what they say is that these views are baked in.
	Baked into the polling, they're baked into voters' perceptions to a certain sense already baked in.
	Right, because this is baked in a narrative that's always baked in the cake.
	Yes, there is a largely baked in factor.
	You've probably baked in the email stuff already.
	This sort of goes to what's already baked in with Hillary Clinton.
	We're also at a point where this issue seems to be baked in.
	I think a lot of them are baked in the cake about how people feel about Hillary Clinton.
	Sixteen different people.
	All saying that doesn't make any difference when he said it's already baked in.
	People supporting Hillary already factor in, already baked in the emails.
	They already baked it in.
	And the people opposing Hillary, that's not going to change anything.
	They've already baked it in.
	Now you even heard some Republicans in this.
	Carl Rove was in this list of people.
	Robert Cotton, well, he's not a Republican.
	He used to write it National Review.
	He's a Washington Post now.
	Uh yeah, that's the only so-called Republican I can find in Mark McKinnon, who ran Bush's media, but he's that no labels bunch now.
	How many we know how this happens, by the way, this all comes from the Clinton campaign.
	Do you realize, folks, there's a letter from Eric Holder and signed by a hundred other such dignitaries condemning and opposing and crucifying and whatever comey.
	You know who wrote it?
	The Clinton campaign.
	It has been learned the Clinton campaign wrote the letter over the signature of Eric Holder and these other sycophants who signed on to it.
	It's already baked in.
	It doesn't make any difference.
	It doesn't matter.
	You couldn't have a group of people more out of touch.
	You know, it's it's amazing the links that they are going to stay in denial.
	If if I were in the established play a game with you here.
	If I were in the establishment, and I held the view of Trump that they hold.
	If I were in the establishment and I didn't want any outsider, I wanted to maintain my position in the establishment, I wanted to make myself a power broker, stay in it, I would still be, because I'm an observant and realistic guy, I'm the mayor of Realville, I would be really alarmed, curious, concerned over the size of these Trump rallies.
	It's undeniable that there is something happening in this country.
	And these people in the established want to act like there's nothing going on.
	That doesn't mean anything.
	Those crowds, it's just that's just a bunch of people.
	It means a hell of a lot, and they want to act like they're unmoved by it.
	It's not natural.
	It is, I guarantee you, when your side's drawing 300 people, or in case of Tim Kane, 30 people.
	When your side can't sell books, when your side can't book its cruises, when your side can and the other side's drawing 15,000 people every appearance and three or four times a day, and you look at that and you ignore it, or you discard it, or you say there's nothing to it, you are living in sheer utter denial, and that's where they are.
	Oh, it's already baked in, it doesn't matter.
	Hillary's gonna win this isn't gonna change it.
	It's nothing but wishful thinking from these people.
	I mean, this is real on the ground evidence that we have happening in this country.
	There is something going on out there, and Trump is getting better, folks.
	I don't know how many of you have taken my suggestion to actually watch one of these Trump rallies on YouTube or via a drudge link or wherever you find it.
	But he's for the most part this past week it was on message.
	He was from the teleprompter, and he was hitting a ton of different issues.
	It wasn't just NAFTA and trade deals and jobs.
	It had all of that, but he was touching on a lot of issues, substantively, for over an hour at each one of these rallies.
	Do you know what it takes to go to a Trump rally?
	Do you know what kind of time?
	It's an all-day thing, folks.
	First you have to drive there.
	That's gonna take you some time, and many people are from out of town, wherever these rallies are.
	So you've got the traffic of getting there.
	Then you have to park.
	You have to get there early because of security.
	You have to get there early.
	You have to arrive early, you have to stand in line, sometimes for hours.
	Then once you get in, it could be another two hours before Trump arrives and actually begins his portion of the rally.
	Then when it's over, you don't just stream out of there.
	You wait around and you talk to other people there because you've got 7,000 to 10,000 like-minded souls that you're meeting and getting to know.
	They clear the deck so Trump can get out of there with no hassle with no traffic, then they let everybody else go, so you've got to retrace your steps back to your car.
	You have to get in the traffic that ensues leaving this event.
	It can take hours to show up at a one and a half hour Trump rally, and people have been doing this three and four times a day for this entire campaign all over the country.
	Doesn't matter where you go.
	And these people at the establishment look at this and say nothing happening there.
	That's nothing.
	That's just anecdote.
	And the AP can do that story where they found one 29-year-old farmer in Warren County, Ohio, to say that he was voting for Hillary to save the GOP.
	Stop and think of that.
	A 29-year-old farmer from Warren County said, I so hate Trump.
	I'm voting for Hillary to save the GOP.
	And the AP ran with that, and that one guy, he was a stand-in for millions, they wanted us to believe.
	So in that anecdotal case, oh yeah, we're supposed to take that one guy and understand that it means and represents tens of thousands of people, but 15,000 people to Trump rally doesn't mean anything, Russia.
	It's just you can't equate people showing up at a rally with voters.
	There's no science there, Rush.
	You don't even know that they're all gonna vote, much less for who.
	But then they turn around and try to tell us that one guy in Ohio stands for represents a million people.
	It's just absurd.
	Now let's move on to 1980.
	This Indiana poll.
	I don't want to get ahead of myself here.
	But I have to tell you, and I know it's Indiana, uh, but Monmouth, they're at the top of the poll in terms of uh respect and credibility in this particular polling season.
	I don't know, maybe some of you expected to see a state poll with Trump up by 11 a week out, but I didn't.
	And I will guarantee you the Hillary camp didn't expect to see it.
	And they may try to, well, of course it's Indiana, of course it's what do you mean, of course?
	As far as the Clinton camp can campaign's concerned, Trump is unsuited.
	He's unfit, he's ill-tempered, he's a boer, He's crass.
	He's a misogynist.
	He curses, does all these low rent things.
	And according to them, nobody ought to have anything good to say or think about Trump.
	But then they see this poll of Trump up a little bit.
	Oh, well, of course it's Indiana.
	What do you what do you mean?
	What do you expect?
	It's Indiana.
	I'm just telling you, my considered opinion is that there are people all over this country, the Democrat Party who are literally upside down with fright and panic over what Comey did Friday.
	But more than that, it's not just what Comey did.
	I think the truth is that most of them know she did it.
	She did something that's not kosher.
	She did something that's wrong.
	She did so did Obama.
	They know Obama lied.
	They know Obama lied about her server, and when he knew about it, they know he lied about not using it.
	They know he made up a fake name to communicate with her on it.
	They know he lied about Obamacare.
	They know how unpopular that is.
	If they're actually telling themselves that they're sitting at the top of the heap, and there's this country cannot wait to elect Hillary Clinton, they are in a state of denial.
	So here is we move forward.
	Audio soundbite number nine.
	Pat Cadell was on the Fox report last night on the Fox News channel, being interviewed by Harris Faulkner.
	Here's how it went.
	I think we're already seeing signs that this could be like 1980, which is the previously, and I was on the wrong side of that one.
	The only election which went in close and came out big because the bench started pushing the boat.
	And I believe, given the structure of attitudes against what's been going on overall in the country, that helps.
	Okay, so let's go back to 1980.
	We dug up even more soundbites in 1980.
	Back to NBC, November 4th, election night, 1980, John Chancellor, and he's talking about Helen Thomas, because they're in a state of shock.
	They expected Carter to win all the polls, had Carter up by nine, and Reagan has come, he's won a landslide.
	They announced it an hour and ten minutes after going on the air at 810 PM.
	California still had almost two hours left to vote.
	Three.
	Three hours left to vote.
	And they'd already called it a landslide.
	So now they're talking about what the hell happened.
	Well, let me tell you what Helen Thomas of the UP reported tonight.
	She learned that the president was informed Monday night that samplings taken by polster Pat Cadell showed it was all over in those quotes.
	Pat Cadell was Carter's pollster, and they knew the weekend before the election that it was all over.
	But Pat Cadell didn't tell John Chancellor.
	They didn't tell anybody else.
	But uh Helen Thomas of UPI found out about it.
	And then Brokaw and Judy Woodruff discussed it, but what I have to take a break here, we'll get to them when we get back.
	Don't go away.
	Okay, very quickly, because I've got other things.
	This stuff that has nothing to do with the campaign, but everything to do with what's happening to America.
	I want to get to some of those in the next half hour.
	Here's uh Tom Brokaw and Judy Woodruff discussing uh Reagan coming out of nowhere, ostensibly, and beating Jimmy Carter in 1980, and they're referring to Pat Cadell, who says that he is beginning to sense this election has the same feel that he had in 1980 when Reagan came out of nowhere to beat Carter.
	Here's Woodruff and Brookhoff.
	Pat Cadell was saying that it broke bad for them over the weekend of the Iranian hostage situation was the final undoing.
	They can't believe it was only that, though, do they?
	Well, that is what Pat Cadell is saying.
	I'm sure you're aware that there are other pollsters who will have other points of view on that.
	I know that Bob Teter, who has done some polling for the Republicans, has said that the trend was obvious early last week when the undecided voters started breaking uh toward Reagan, most of them toward Reagan and not toward Carter.
	And that was exactly what the Carter campaign had been counting on all along.
	They're very heavily negative Reagan.
	The speeches the president was making, the commercials on television they were running, were anti-Reagan, anti-Reagan, and they hope that that would in the end, with the pressure on bring the undecided voters and the Anderson supporters back to the president.
	It didn't happen.
	They've gone to Reagan.
	That's why Cadell seems to feel it's it's it's somewhat.
	I look, nobody's predicting 1980 is going to take place here.
	It's just Pep Cadell was there as a Carterite, and he says he's getting the the same kind of feeling.
	Back in 1980, with all these negative ads here running in the last week against Reagan, and again, I remember them.
	And folks, the the Democrats' strategy hasn't changed.
	Reagan was yesterday's racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe.
	Uh no business being in politics, the B-rated movie actor.
	Yeah, he was Governor of California, but that didn't count for anything.
	Reagan was was a uh a slow thinking, uh plodding, amiable dunce kind of name.
	Never ever took him seriously.
	And it dovetails uh with the same tactics that Hillary and the Democrats are using about Trump.
	He's no business being in politics.
	This guy's a reality TV star, hotels and casinos.
	He's got no business being in politics.
	He's a reprobate, doesn't know what he's doing.
	And and yet there are people uh daily now moving into the into the Trump camp.
	So it is what it is, and nobody knows yet how this is going to end up.
	Let's be clear and remind everybody of that again.
	We will continue in mere moments.
	Hillary's in Ohio.
	She's in Kent, Ohio.
	And she's out there.
	The FBI's got nothing.
	The FBI's got nothing.
	We should focus on choosing the next president.
	That's exactly what we're doing, madam.
	That is exactly what we're doing.
	The FBI's got nothing.
	It's the exact opposite.
	Although, although, you know, I was as I have been totally purposely distorted and lied about and misrepresented in all kinds of conservative media.
	It was never my theory.
	It was a cynic's theory who had emailed me that this whole thing is trumped up to take wiki leaks off the news, that there's nothing to see here, it's all a joke.
	That got purposely attributed to me as something I actually believe when I clearly stated, if I said it one time, I said it ten times.
	This is a cynic's view, and that I'm not a cynic.
	But let me ask you a question.
	I asked this as a just a test question when people came up to me over the weekend.
	Let me ask you a question.
	What happens?
	Because they're all excited about it.
	Oh, this is great.
	This comey guy finally doing something right, and you know there's something there, Russia, you know they wouldn't do that if there's not something.
	There's got to be something really there.
	I said, maybe.
	But let me ask you a question.
	How are you gonna feel if next Wednesday or Thursday, Loretta Lynch bops out, or Comey bobs out with another appearance and says they have wrapped up the investigation and they found nothing?
	How are you gonna feel?
	No, next this Wednesday or Thursday, before the election, if they announce, if this week, if they announce, if Comey comes back out, hey, you know, we've gone through those 650,000 emails on the PERVs laptop.
	And while we thought we saw something and it warranted an investigation, there's nothing there.
	And everybody I asked that question, their faces fell.
	And they said, Do you think that's what's gonna happen?
	I said, No, I don't know what what's gonna happen.
	Now that's what they said.
	It can't happen, Russ.
	This this investigation, it can't happen one way or the other before the election.
	They can't conclude it one way before the election.
	They can't.
	Who are we talking about here?
	Who are we talking about?
	No, we are not talking about the FBI.
	We're talking About the establishment.
	We're talking about the elites.
	We are talking about the people who run the country.
	You telling me they can't do something like this?
	Do you know?
	Just it's it's unrelated.
	And I'm no, no, no, no.
	I'm not predicting it.
	Do I need to shout this?
	I'm not predicting it.
	It was a question, you know.
	I love to probe people's minds.
	I am a critical thinker.
	I like to make people think rather than just react.
	So I throw out contingencies, possibilities to get their thinking on things.
	Their faces fell.
	And they all said, you realize what the reaction if if people would realize they had been had that they had been, yeah, but that and and more.
	But the idea that it's not possible, you had better broom that.
	You think it's not possible?
	Uh but again, I'm not predicting it.
	It's not my actual prediction.
	Nothing more to think piece.
	But just to show you, unrelated, you know my tech blogs?
	My old tech blog buddies got totally scammed today.
	A whole bunch of them reported that Apple had released iOS 10.1.1 with an upgrade in a health app.
	It turned out to be a joke.
	Apple has not released 10.1.1, but whoever released it made it look exactly like Apple's website where software updates happen.
	I grabbed my phone.
	It's okay.
	I don't use the health app, because I think it's bogus stuff, but I'll I'll update anyway.
	Who knows there might be other stuff in there?
	And it said your software is up to date at 10.1.
	So I went to the Apple website.
	There is no 10.1.1.
	They have there's no beta.
	There's no nothing.
	There's no release version.
	It's new, there's just 10.1 is it.
	And those tech sites have not said another word about it.
	Apple doesn't release things at 10 o'clock in the morning Eastern Time anyway.
	So, and these are the smartest journalists in the world, young tech bloggers, and they got scammed.
	It appears.
	Okay, now I said there's other news out there that has not really a whole lot to do with the campaign, but I want to get this stuff in rather than have it go by the wayside, not get mentioned.
	You know, I've always told you that advertising is one of the greatest indicators of our culture.
	The reason is advertising agencies and others who come up with ways to separate people from their money, have to be good at it.
	There are an infinite number of products and services out there, all vying for your money.
	And they they produce advertising commercials designed to get you to spend your money on their stuff.
	Socialists hate this, by the way.
	To them, this is unnecessary rampant consumerism, which is destructive and unfair because not everybody has the same amount of money.
	So it's it's it causes hurt feelings.
	People that can't afford to buy that new car still have to watch the commercial.
	It's just not fair.
	It creates longing and desire that they can't hopefully, and it may even inspire crime since they can't have it, they go steal it.
	I'm not kidding.
	That's how socialists look at it.
	Liberals.
	But nevertheless, advertising will tell you where the culture is because the people come up with these ads have to know, or have to be good at detecting what's cool, what's hip, uh, what's persuasive, which means they have to be very good at identifying where we are socially and culturally in a given moment.
	Well, Bud White.
	Have you noticed there are a lot fewer beer commercials in NFL games, by the way.
	You haven't?
	I have.
	Do you also know that World Series Game Five last night outrated Sunday Night Football for the first time in like 30 years?
	I am not, and the Sunday night game was not a dud.
	Dallas and the Igles.
	And you got two perhaps up and coming star quarterbacks, and it was a good game.
	Went into overtime.
	It was a good game, and the World Series game outrated it in the overnight metered market.
	Well, Anheuser Busch inBEV, the parent company of Bud Light, Budweiser, Mikelobe, and all that.
	They have pulled their latest commercials, starring Amy Schumer and Seth Rogan.
	They have pulled these commercials weeks ahead of schedule.
	As sales of the beer declined in the third quarter.
	Adweek reports that Anheuser Busch in BEV pulled the ads a little earlier than expected.
	Though a spokesman said they had nothing to see here, which they always say when there is a lot to see.
	Canadian actor and inside uh Amy Schumer comedian urging Americans to join a mock Bud Light political party in a play on this year's presidential race.
	One advertised when the campaign, Equal Pay, received negative reaction online.
	In it, these two, Seth Rogan and Amy Schumer, bemoan and whine about the gender wage gap.
	While Amy Schumer plugs Bud Light by suggesting that it costs the same, whether you're a dude or a lady.
	The ads are ineffective.
	So you have two liberal actors, a liberal comedian, and a and a political premise resulting in declining sales of the beer.
	Now obviously a leftist ad agency put this together, and they produce ads for this, you know, foreign-owned uh inBEV, Anheuser Bush is now not owned by an American company, and they push a leftist political agenda, trying to do this humorously, and it doesn't work.
	What does that tell you?
	I mean, does it tell you anything?
	I mean, it could.
	And ESPN.
	Are you ready for this?
	ESPN lost 621,000 subscribers last month.
	The worst month in company history.
	What has ESPN been known for lately?
	They've gone all political all the time.
	And what have they been doing going all political?
	They have been ribbing into Trump.
	They have been laughing at impuning making fun of Republicans and Trump, and look what's happened.
	Have you noticed the baseball World Series pregame shows?
	They do the anthem as they always do.
	Not one player is sitting down, standing down, taking a knee.
	Not one player's just and the American flag is so big it covers the entire field.
	In Chicago and in Cleveland.
	Major League Baseball's doing the exact opposite what the NFL's doing and their ratings through the roof last night over the NFL Sunday night game.
	And ESPN, which you can't deny, it's gone all political.
	They can't do anything without having a political overtone or some snide snarky political comment, usually about Trump.
	621,000 subscribers canceled.
	Now that's not all due to Trump or politics.
	A lot of it is people cutting the cord, cable TV too expensive.
	They're trying to find cheaper ways to watch.
	But like the NFL trying to say, no, our ratings aren't down because of Colin Kaepernick and a bunch of players disrespecting a country.
	No, no, no, that would have nothing to do with it, right?
	The signs are all there, folks.
	That a lot of Americans are fed up to the gills, with where the arrogant left is taking the country and how they are behaving overall.
	Man, I just watched something funny on CNN.
	There's some guy on I never heard of him before, but he's some constitutional lawyer and scholar they dredged up somewhere named Pate Pale or Pale Pate or Pate Patel Pate, whatever his name is.
	And he's just livid with what Comey has done.
	Comey shouldn't have gone out there in July.
	Comey should have read one issue paragraph.
	Hillary Clinton is innocent.
	No crimes have been committed.
	This is an outrage.
	And he's an outrage, what Comey did last Friday.
	And he's, and all these Republicans and the Democrats and the Department of Justice all agree.
	And it's a that's a every time the Democrats are in trouble, Obama does it, Hillary Dubb, they all create these straw men.
	And Republicans and Democrats everywhere both agree that blah, blah, blah.
	And that's just not the case.
	But anyway, the point is this guy is being rude.
	He's interrupting the host at and the other guests, and he's just livid over this.
	They're hit me at a crime committer.
	There's no crime here, there's no crime with this.
	This is a violation.
	I just love seeing this because it means there's something there.
	These people are used to getting away with everything.
	And there must be something there, because this guy is uh he's he's giving away with his rudeness and his unwillingness to let an opposing point of view be heard.
	Ah, folks, I have to, you know, it's frustrating.
	The end of every show because there's so much here that I didn't get to.
	But you don't know that, because you don't have in front of you what I have in front of me.
	So I just fall back on the comforting reality that there is always tomorrow.
	I mean, we are loaded here and we're going to be.
	So I appreciate your being here.
	I appreciate your patience.
	And we'll see you back here tomorrow.
