-- developments on the campaign trail Fox -- digital politics editor Chris firewall.
Our Chris good to see you I was interested in the the pastor there -- talking about African Americans is not a one issue people as he put it.
But they certainly seem to be in in this country -- one candidate.
People.
Any sign that have anything to the -- -- A witness.
President Obama's gonna win ninety's.
0% or more of the black vote evangelical and all kinds he does have to worry about her now.
Especially in states where it's gonna be close and there's a significant black population Virginia.
And Ohio come to mind but now he's -- when the black vote overwhelmingly.
And the business vote looks like it's in play here with the -- president releasing ads attacking our governor Romney.
And his role.
-- Bain Capital and capitalism itself.
Yeah they -- vampire they said that he would come -- to what used to be the old Kansas city bowl.
A hundred year old steel company and Bain Capital came in instructed drive put everybody out of work.
Here's what's surprising about that bad it's a two minute spot they're running it on Wednesday it's fairly limited by their it to test balloon they're gonna try it out local newscasts and swing states on Wednesday see how works.
To make Mitt Romney into this -- sure.
That -- that fed off of these folks but Lou here is the challenge and here's the problem for President Obama and doing this.
In politics you don't ever want to -- your opponent.
-- central strength what the Obama campaign is basically saying here is yes we grant you that Mitt Romney has a lot of business experience we gray issue he is good at making money.
But he's -- he's a bad person he's a mean guy he was mean to these folks.
But I want to think about that for president that doesn't have economic experience and that most Americans think has mishandled the economy.
Seating Mitt Romney this issue even if they're saying he isn't a -- capitalist may be a little dangerous.
-- -- was supposed to be a a positive economic engine and talk about either President Obama -- governor rob.
If you do I stand corrected quite so.
Let's let let's turn to this money issue which fascinates me always and that is -- to one out.
Out raising.
Governor Romney right now cash on hand they can spend ten to one against -- Romney.
From the Chicago headquarters there.
Is that insurmountable is it necessary to to match or to -- the president that fundraising.
Well he you don't need to match and you just need to get to the point that you can super saturate the airwaves after Labor Day that you can that your in the arms race.
That you have parity.
So that is -- challenging right now Romney is raising money hand over fist the money is now flowing in that he's locked up the Republican nomination you -- Ron Paul is not gonna campaign going -- there's no.
There's no more argument really about Mitt Romney being the nominee the money is pouring -- but here's the other thing I wanna point this out this may go unnoticed sometimes -- which is this.
The president is running an incredibly expensive operation.
He spending twenty million dollars a month even before he starts running ads in this current ad campaign.
Of which this vampire ad is a constituent part.
Is a 25 million dollar ad -- to the president is gushing money this creates a lot of pressure to raise money.
To raise that money -- to keep your constituent groups happy.
That is probably factored into his thinking that before this swing.
-- fund raisers that he's been having across the country wanted to be out with some of those donors to be happy about.
Or today we understand that day in an interview he raised -- that JPR I'm I'm sorry that Goldman Sachs was one of the best managed banks in the country.
They are he's trying to send a message.
To the financial sector keep the money coming because he's burning through it.
Or are oil is burning out of business community over the course of just about grew up faster and have years.
The that gay marriage a position that he's taken in which he matches up exactly.
With vice president Dick -- There there's just no there's no daylight between the two positions there is no new policy direction for the federal government here.
Are yet the national media has fallen in line just jobs gushing over the president.
As is is the liberal base of this president.
What in the world is going on here.
Well what's going on here is first got the money and then you have the base.
But then you have this other consideration.
That for the president look.
I think there were all coming to understand how couple pulled north Carolina's gonna be for the president when -- they just had that same sex referendum.
That overwhelmingly ban of voters overwhelmingly chose to ban same sex marriage.
But you look in states like Ohio you look in states like Pennsylvania you look around the country where there's a lot of these voters.
I think you know Brit Hume said it on Sunday I think he was exactly right that net net.
It's a negative.
-- are what we're.
