Bad until joints is -- I put himself under the care protection -- If you want to I'll learn more about the protesters -- real clear thinker dot com I've got all the details Joe that result from fox when he five joins us every week how are you Joe.
Good how are you guys to muddle I want to remind you just do what the governor's staff about you know maybe supporting that -- don't believe everything they governors that know. Oh I know that you know that already.
Millones Y -- how can you say that semi.
Prime example. I just yesterday when the governor came out all the buttons you very upset about these. Republican Governors Association had better targeting ten K -- yeah they're not even targeting him. Couple weeks -- the governor comes out all the sudden he wants to complain about the -- that told baker. You know let's get though they you know demand the baker although bad off the air what got what I just want under the Drudge Report a couple minutes ago and right on the front page of the Drudge Report what you vote is there. And -- from the Republican Governors Association that -- governor Patrick OK hill.
There it is able even been I would say governor it's his team can't -- even worse then them all -- exactly that's the media saying -- anyone's ever said about Tim Cahill president I. -- while it.
Pretty tough but you know the funny thing is is that -- the governor was complaining about these -- for years ago. The governor I happen to benefit from a very similar ad that was run by its patriotic independent allegedly independent group which is not in the better off. That ad that attacked Kerry -- So if you do have forgotten that and claim that Soledad we're not negative well of course they were totally negative. So always kind of -- down the governor's argument a little -- anything within a reality is no -- going to be taking down any of these bad. The look like we're gonna be seeing a lot of negative bad. The governor just came out because Charlie Baker was unveiling his new slogans.
You are this year steal some other headlines not.
Right exactly and you know all of a sudden a couple of weeks later he comes out happy that's have been on the air for weeks. He never complain about them or.
They can't be the the electronics and the democratization. Of media of blogs and everything is is changing. The nature of high you have to do politics and it's getting harder to do traditional sleazy politics without getting busted.
Well let's hope it's totally changed everything because it. People are posting things on Twitter again within minutes after the governor called on baker did turn -- the bad then what somebody asked them about the ads from four years ago he said all -- that we're not negative. You know we got emails from from the baker campaign. They don't hear the -- they weren't exactly. Not negative -- he can't really get away with too much especially something. That's right there that everybody remembers from four years ago and it in the governor's race so. Ben and not not to mention that people are updating on Twitter at you know you that I can -- a press conference somebody can contact me on Twitter send me a message saying -- out the governor about this. Well this happened four years ago. So you can't really get away with that much anymore which is a good thing.
So that's where you get your questions we're trying to -- consent under. I thought that I -- where it comes -- debates are going to be done in this and I -- should -- is even possible well. Is that even possible for a candidate. Was absolutely determined to Iran. Good clean. Above board campaign is that even possible in this day and age to do that.
really because if you get attacked. Oh look what happened it's -- K no it didn't it he got attacked relentlessly. He did not really respond he didn't have the money to really put ads on the air look what happened to only dropped ten points. So -- got to sit there would be stupid to sit there and not take -- need to be yet because if you you know we need you hit good attitude.
So when the end doesn't -- so that. Don't have the lead then to candidates like Barack Obama or even more locally Deval Patrick. Where there's no. Real public tracked corrected to examine. To distort if you wanna distorted what to just a comment on the kind of blow we end. And -- the a freshness is that they've never done this before then you find out after the fact. They're not the messiah they're not the one denied -- say via did just did just ordinary human beings like the rest of us.
Yet then the President Obama I think you all remember during the primary -- went after Hillary Clinton pretty good there was no there was not all positive campaigning. But no one runs the totally positive campaign you you just you can't do it even try to do it. Scott Brown you know try to -- but he also got help from independent groups true that. --
There's probably nothing you Marcia -- us. -- you know you can't really good in this. -- Richard Blumenthal the attorney general Connecticut -- candidate for the US senate to succeed dear Chris Dodd was viewed as a sure end of that seat and the New York Times does a bigger right up yesterday -- for. Having lied about being a Vietnam veteran what do you make of the store.
one of the worst things that you could possibly do as a candidate to lie about your military record is that immediately strike a chord with people and Blumenthal I've actually interviewed him a few times he very well known a fanatic yet. And now if he'd been stayed on the campaign stump that he served a couple armed police said he -- In Vietnam when he actually tried very hard to get out of combat duty in Vietnam. So I I don't know why he buddy get away with in this stated I mean people have been caught be.
Or yeah but he's an attorney general since 1991 it was working fine mid silly. Decided to run for the US senate.
I guess still that is why it's -- in Connecticut at the time I mean you know Leo like what five -- there's something. To get out of because they get out of Vietnam though are I don't know why people and I examiner as before maybe he wasn't emphasizing it. Before the -- the democrats' big hope of keeping an out of date gaining about beating Connecticut. And now you -- thank you know that's. Not -- look very good tonight we're gonna see I think more damage for the Democrats are probably gonna be Arlen Specter go down in Pennsylvania and that primary tonight. You gonna the other there's a bit of Tea Party backed candidate in Kentucky that looks like he's going to.
Yeah Ron Paul son -- does any RO US senate there.
ahead in the polls so I think you're gonna feel Laporte shock waves tonight. -- the Democrats then in some respects for the Republicans any establishment candidate at all is gonna have trouble I think you look what happened with Richard Roth. He would have destroyed in the democratic candidate for the states that it for Scott Brown he's.
Yeah but Scott Brown came in and in worked hard to make sure the Ross who win that election do you think that had an impact.
It has an impact but I mean how many times do you know would come especially have you seen. But Republican win that easily NN open CNN open contested prize election and you know you never used to see that happen.
BI you know I mean obviously the economic times the I don't know. Three point oh run and Elian had -- Charlie Brown's not actually that well known room Massachusetts south and not yet mature about Phil's gonna make him how sorry LA how about the Jack Murtha -- in Pennsylvania the congressional seats and also has a special election going on the today.
That's gonna be closer you know I'm let's try to predict those congressional low election but that's obviously big test for Democrats to. And there you know there -- jeopardy as well so. I -- they -- going to be good deal looking at a lot of those results night of big being you know if this is the continuation. Of problems for incumbents. An establishment. Candidates.
Which in these particular elections that those incumbents there were talking about all have to do with Democrats right.
What right by the end in in their Kentucky Derby were establishment Republicans is expected to lose her.
That's sure -- oh yeah I ran and ran -- more coming in from the right on the right I.
Another it is expedient BD establish yeah.
So you're right then and McConnell Mitch McConnell endorsed the sky and then Paula Zahn looking right in my PM okay thank you for the update also socked with -- Joe. Joe themselves Fox25. G.
