Morning it's here I don't know that everybody -- did the next guess that was coming up the just saw the studio this on the back of the head the thinning hair and then or.
-- -- -- -- -- -- Statements this PS Stewart started his segment by the way about three minutes ago.
And now we join him in progress yeah.
Presidential election taken what you wanna talk about their president -- -- course we do I don't believe the polls that.
I was generated by Stephen call that the other not because I don't believe the polls material that -- I was it was very look it was a funny a funny guy and I'm the first to admit it and it was very very fought -- But he pilloried me because -- said on Hannity actually I don't believe the polls it's not that I don't believe Obama is ten points ahead.
I don't believe is ahead I don't believe that these polls are really giving us a sense of wed the electorate it's.
I don't think they're falling down -- what they're supposed to do if you look at the I know you've been through this before you look at the in tunnels of these polls right just doesn't add up.
Munis in the amount of people identify themselves as Democrats rich Republicans they are using precisely the same methodology.
They using the same voting results from 2008.
And assuming but going to be exactly the same voting -- in 2012.
And then they're adding even more Democrats on to those existing voting patents.
That's ridiculous about that in about get and present value his judgment into the polls which is not valid they had not scientific that not valuable and and not creating an accurate picture of where we -- What -- designed to do this is the establish -- media putting out these polls that ups its all over.
Obama's gonna -- -- Actually want to win by ten point but it certainly -- so you Republicans.
It got all the doing answered yes yes yes I do think that but -- the -- all that would have got five in the fox Paul look at.
Can receive your -- neither of -- that's it but neither of us.
But I'm prepared to cite the vast majority of polls okay now -- and every single one of them -- vast majority of polls are skewing deliberately.
Left they want Obama to win.
They won't Republicans to feel discouraged they won't Republicans to stop giving money to Mitt Romney they want Obama to win that in eight to win it.
For Obama you cannot argue that Mitt Romney's running a terrific campaign I wouldn't -- into the sort.
A lately ultimately -- to a at least it would light a fire on what motor city well inordinate get them to the polls -- talking about.
Well they and it did my news showed the economy at the overarching picture but he's been it does as long as you take -- election coverage from the establishment media.
And that broadcasts and newspapers as long as you take -- coverage from them you'll think that Mitt Romney is running a -- campaign.
If you look at it objectively.
You might think otherwise for -- just for example.
A -- showed a similar objective -- coming up this morning I think it's in the 9 o'clock now on Fox Business Network.
I've got -- going on the -- who -- Mitt Romney worked with -- on a daily basis but many many years knows the -- -- Look at a talk about his taxes not to talk about how Richie is I'm gonna talk about the man himself Mitt Romney right loses temple as -- got a backbone to go on the attack.
Look at a couple of easy easy to not cement steel point easy too nice to go on the attack now I found that out.
Not what I said I said he's running I said it he's running an ineffective campaign strategically a strategic this -- strategy.
That it it's been that that campaign has been polled in myriad directions.
In the wrong direction just bought what did it's the 47%.
Video whether this empty chair we brought this up with Bret Bair.
I've been all over the -- to the point that Paul Ryan was gonna talk about the specifics of getting the debt down and then we didn't hear about it and then last weekend -- on the campaign trail.
With a PowerPoint presentation.
Even that would bore you to tears this.
You know beyond downcast didn't -- its novel -- -- -- no I'm just saying that if you know what we're watching an uneven pace of bank.
She's a second Obama to don't it's definitely into bankruptcy is not inevitable for a lot of argued I don't think this is and this is a pent -- -- that -- -- -- -- what effect which I don't agree with pulled up I will agree with you.
That the campaign run by Mitt Romney has not been as effective as -- would like dogs -- agree with that got.
Autograph one piece of -- -- pieces actually data so that these what's -- which is we were talking with Brett.
These web sites that average all the polls right one's real clear politics they've given to -- 65 electoral votes to Obama so far aboriginal -- and we need to seven and went.
The other 538 dot com has an 84% chance -- Obama reelection again averaging all the polls and making this projection based on data so let's data on one side right.
What would be the data you would point to -- other side that says hey you're wrong it's not a scientific methodology within the polls which skew left.
Every one of them.
Think it's because but it is what the whole that I have seen yes welcome no you're right there board Democrats identified the pollsters will to say hey we have a wide.
Sample that we're taking a more people -- identifying them.
Crafts look at it should try this the two polls that I follow most closely right applies also likely voters Rasmussen -- at this point Gallup has now moved to likely vote that's who they pulp and that's a more accurate -- -- registered voters just days.
If you express a likelihood of voting for that counts more than that hold these -- look at them more closely right maternal that was likely much more close that it's much more close if you fall of those two polls the fox was likely voters also was up five Natalie.
But -- it anyway we got.
We could go for hours -- beat up there we actually passed the heart out I don't know I think we'll be right back -- product TV terms like you know -- right back story.
Morning 9:50 am happy I -- I love it thank you -- back thank you.
