incumbent, but he still is in a tough fight. >> well, he's an incumbent, michael bennett, but he's an appointed incumbent. he's never won an election. gwen: it should help in a year like this. >> it should, but he's part of the party in power. and he's running against the tea party candidate, who was in many ways a surprise winner of the primary. and who has made a number of mistakes along the way. i mean, ken buck has got kind of a boot-in-mouth problem that has caused him trouble. and i think the question -- this race is one of the closest in the country. michael bennett has run a reasonably good race, but the state has never fully warmed to him because he's not been around that long, and the question i think will be when people go to the voting booth, are they going to sort of forgive some of the things that ken buck has said because they're just tired of what they're getting out of washington? >> we can't really leave colorado without talking about the ad war, because colorado is ground zero. i've been going through and looking at where these outside groups with millions of dollar

colorado race, there was a poll. ken buck is leading michael bennett, and the key findings of this poll is that bennett is ahead in nearly two-one in denver but trails in the rest of bennette region not -- is ahead in denver. the republican candidate is way back at 7%. you may know that the tea party is split in that colorado governor's race, some backing tom tancredo and some another in that race. first telephone call here, chris, in mississippi, have you decided how you are going to vote? who are you going to be voting for? >> the tea party is something to get president obama, but we will lose the house. >> all right, we will go to ohio. alexandria, on the republican line, have you decided how you are going to vote? >> well, i was thinking hard about this, but i would like to say that listening to john kasich, talking about david from the bible, note he gave these examples that david was ready, but john kasich probably does not know the bible, because if he would read the kings and samuel, he would find out that they were cruel and merciless murderers of all of the kings. how can john

get things done. most tellingly, and i think that the moment was when senator bennett of utah went down. obama was close to senator bennett. they could do business together. after senator bennett left, nobody wanted to do business with obama. the difference between 1994 is that the power of fox news has moved this political agenda. i think that the tea party movement has formed there. glenn beck has been pushing as a spokesperson for the tea party movement. newt gingrich did not have that. there was cnn. he did not have that. tea party and fox working together helped to start this turn back of obamaism. i think that obama did a good job out of the gate. he did the right thing by bailing out general motors. over that first summer, he did not take the right seriously. when they started those town hall meetings in the tea party movement started, it was laughed at by the east coast deletes and they are not laughing anymore. i think that he needed to have done health care quicker. the fact that it ate up the entire first year of his presidency and a up a lot of capital within the democr

analysis. there's a quote from jim bennett, the son of senator bob bennett, thrown out at the state gop convention by the tea party. the quote is i've decided the republican party in utah doesn't exist anymore. it's the tea party and the democrats. is that true, and is it national? >> you know what, i think one thing that will happen after the election, a lot of republicans will say, if they win, this served our purposes. let's try to move away from these folks. but they're going to have a real problem. what you saw in one republican primary after another is that the republican primary electorate has gotten so conservative it becomes harder and harder to win a primary if you're anything but a right winger. mike castle being the best example. if they continue to dominate the primaries, it will become the tea party. >> e.j., always a pleasure. have a great weekend. >> great to be with you, thank you. >>> of murder and file cabinets. a classic from james thurbor tonight. >>> and the pharmacist at the cvs was going to let her die rather than [ male announcer ] how can rice production in ind

where buck has an eight-point lead over senator bennett. in wisconsin, it's ron johnson up seven. finally, to illinois and a glimmer of hope. a new poll has giannoulias with a slight lead over mark kirk. lots of voters still undecided in that race. we'll continue to check the scoreboard each night leading up to november 2nd. let's right now go to the state of play with four weeks of campaigning yet to go, terry mcauliffe was chairman of the republican national committee. richard wolfe. thank you. nbc's latest poll has republicans at 46-43. it's within the margin of error, but these are likely voters. 49-48 was in august, so you see a projection there. >> i think the voters are now focusing. i think a lot of voters have let their frustration out and have seen some of these tea party candidates. they don't like what they're hearing. president obama is campaigning. the folks are getting energized and they've realized they've got to vote. we have a huge cash advantage. 3-1 on some top house races. the dnc just came out, 16 million bucks in september. we have more money. the president

bennett. >> all little warmer out there yesterday and a little warmer today were going to start the day on the chillier side we just have clear skies that settled in overnight so temperatures drop down like a rock. we're looking at the upper '40's to the low 50s bay area why. forcing that high cloud cover those than wispy clouds we saw them yesterday will see them today didn't have a big impact on the forecast led to the afternoon as warm things up about 5 to 10 degrees over what we saw yesterday it will definitely not interfere with the blue angel show. it took a look at what the headlines for tonight into the weekend we do have the high clouds in cooler temperatures this morning but into the afternoon five to 10 degrees warmer that will occur today and again tomorrow. we're going to see a change on monday as the storm passes us to the north. a little cooling and fog back to our forecast. will take a look at your extended plus fleet week coming up in just a bit. >> on to the news this morning the uc-berkeley grad recently released from my reading customer will make her first appear

. host: the first lady, as she makes her to work with michael bennett and supporting his candidacy -- which are handicapping of the electorate, how valuable is having the first lady and the president on the road right now? guest: i think it can be. in a non-presidential year, that is really the critical issue. voter turnout tends to decline in non-presidential years, so being able to activate and mobilize your base is an important thing. people who like him a lot, that is an important thing. the first lady is very well liked, more than her husband right now, and it is good for her to be out there. they are needing to do as much as they can to get their vote stimulated. host: next to maryland, bonnie, republican mike. caller: my comment is that when the shoe is on the other foot, the democrats are raising big bucks they brag about, but now that the republicans are doing it, they are squealing like little pigs. from day one, obama has acted like the campaign manager for the democrats. is this not a double standard? he spends more time on the road campaigning than he actually does in
