marshall, missouri. marshfield, missouri. it was the anniversary of the building where i got my first job teaching high school history. the first person in my family to ever get a job that you had to have a college degree for, because i was the first person in my family to have a college degree. my grandfather's last job had been the janitor at the building. that is not a bad story. but in our country, there are a million stories better than that one. i think the president has, over and over again, refused to talk about the exceptional nature of who we are. i don't know how long you can have the leader of the country not believe we are exceptional and people still understand how extraordinary it is to be here. you know, the high school gender's grandson, a very farmer's son becomes a united states senator, and nobody thinks that is unusual, because we live in united states of america. youo not want to lose that the next senate in the next president, more than any any senate or president in a long time or for a long time, is a

missouri, we can do better. every state around us except for the state of illinois, we do not want to emulate the state of illinois, their lowering taxes. my time, i see some of my colleagues here, we overrode the governor to pass the first tax cut in a hundred years. we have a lot more to do. there is a lot at stake. there's more we can do. we need a state treasurer who is going to invest more in mainstreet and lesson wall street. we need a straight treasure that will loan money to these local banks and then get that money on the street, the same way my grandfather who had an eighth-grade education wanted to start his business. that's what will make our economy grow. we've talked about some of the challenges that are in front of us. obamacare is one of them. higher taxes, fewer options, we run for the state offices and they don't get as much attention, but 11 of the big differences between me and my opponent, we didn't just vote for some part of obama care, my opponent of all the people you could pick, is a tru

in missouri, we can do better. there are states surrounding us that are doing bigger and bolder things. every state around us -- except illinois, we do not want to emulate illinois -- is lowering taxes. my time in the senate, we overrode the governor to pass the first tax cut in 100 years. we have got a lot more to do. there is a lot at stake. we need a state treasurer who is going to invest more in main street and less than wall street. we need a treasurer it going to loan money to local banks that did not get that money on the street, the same way my grandfather wanted to start his business. that is what will make our economy grow. we have talked about some of the charges in front of us -- obamacare is one of them. higher taxes, fewer options. when we run for these state offices, they don't get as much attention, but one of the differences between me and my opponent -- my opponent did not just vote for some semblance of obamacare, my opponent was picked by president obama to implement obamacare in missouri. she i

what was intriguing to me and i always thought this was overlooked, al gore barely lost missouri. if he carried missouri, it wouldn't have mattered if he carried florida or not. >> an american presidential race has entered a new round of campaigning after election day because there is still no clear winner and there are still votes to be counted in florida and beyond. >> everybody in the election business says if you get very, very, very close election, it exposes all kinds of problems. >> we have a voting system in this country that's still a mess. >> as a result, 19,000 ballots were tossed out because they contained a double punch or double votes for presidential candidates. >> several weeks later, we got to saying we want every ballot recounted. in the meantime, as this process is going on, we have the phenomenon of the hanging chad. which led to these extraordinary television pictures of people looking like this. you could certainly have another situation where the election was very close. it was in a state where the election processes are defective, and you had a huge controv

missouri in presidential elections is so red. you would not expect a republican senator to have much problem. what jason kander is doing is very interesting. he is piggybacking on trump's message. antiestablishment, anti-insiderism. training the swamp in washington. sen. blunt: doesn't fact that senator blunt doesn't reflect some insiders of washington. the focal point of the ad has been blunt's family. his wife and three adult children who all are lobbyists. the ads also pretty much routinely feature his house in washington, which is probably at $1.6 million is a little bit out of the range of most missouri voters. it's interesting. he is playing this card. that is what has made this race very close. trump should win here, by between eight and 10 points. is that enough to help blunt? maybe. steve: wisconsin and indiana. two former senators, one defeated in one retired who are trying to come back to washington. jennifer: i think indiana is the book in to missouri. while it is about a democrat who wants to come back, the same argu

i want to check in on missouri. it's been a wild political year in missouri. it's not really a part of the presidential battleground. you got a senate race that will be about the fight for control. it will be determined there. and a crazy governor's race that's very close. donald trump, by the way, touting new trouble for hillary clinton and her foundation. pete williams, though, will join me next to separate fact from fiction on the latest rumors and innuendo regarding the fbi. stay tuned. >> we are calling about that credit score card. the fbi agents say their investigation is likely to yield an indictment. reports also show the political leadership at the department of justice is trying to protect hillary clinton and is interfering with the fbi's criminal investigation. >> so donald trump today is hoping to capitalize on a bunch of rough headlines for the clinton campaign. the "wall street journal" reported last night on a supposed view over pursuing the investigation into the clinton foundation and that's separately, they said this, quote, officials at the

we went out and we took our message to the people of missouri. i was running against a career politician, a guy who had been involved in politics for over 22 years. people just said they are tired of career politicians. they recognize the political establishment failed them. i had never been involved in politics before. i'm a navy seal, small businessowner, founder and ceo of the mission continues. we went out and we brought our case to the people of the state of missouri. did hundreds of town halls and events all over the state. tens of thousands of people joined this movement. they put up yard signs, they made phone calls, they knocked on doors because they wanted to take missouri in a new and better direction. >> it was a concern that missouri was tilting pink and then blue. that blunt was in trouble. he ended up winning. what happened do you think nationwide to this feared in your party a takeover of the senate on the part of democrats and an easy win for hillary clinton at the white house? what happened? >> i can certainly tell you what happ

candice hooper: i'm sorry, the fremont's were in missouri. he did that as a way of trying to tampa down the guerrilla violence going on in that state at the time. he thought if he issued an order , and this was very early in the war, that said, if you are fighting against the union, your slaves will be freed, that the guerrillas would come home to save their slaves. but that was not the way it was going to work. so much a better interviewer, you caught that. that was what the problem was. he saw it really is like part of martial law, trying to keep order in the state, and wasn't reading about the big picture, wasn't thinking about what it could do in terms of the union side of the war effort. he was only thinking about trying to get the guerrillas to stop fighting. thank you. appreciate your comments. as a member of the ulysses s i appreciatetion, the emphasis on julia, because i agree, she is underappreciated. can you speak to this -- you know, these women weren't brought up to be independent and financial -- they weren't taught financial ma

but that sounds good in missouri, i'll sure. >> it sounds like a mansion in missouri. they usually say it is in georgetown, you know, which is pretty posh. yet. universally known. >> is it in georgetown? >> according to the ads, it is in georgetown. we haven't seen an incumbent's house frequently. so, we haven't seen it so much in an ad since 2004 when john thune ran against tom daschle. >> what is this thing about? this race? >> this race is really about a democrat who is drafting on to donald trump's message. the anti-insider, anti-establishment, drain the swamp. and roy blunt is a good representation of being a washington insider. >> what has he done wrong? >> i don't know that he's done thing wrong except his wife and three of his children are lobbyists and they're featured in every single ad. >> how does that affect voter uptake? you can tell word lobbyist is never a positive word. >> yes. missouri has had a lot of controversy lately and the lobbyist misdeeds and that sort of thing. so missouri voters already have sort of a dim view of some of this. and then kande

missouri's made the change and indiana has made the change. so indiana is 11. missouri is 10. our decision team, our brain room, they are all but positive that five days before the polls indicate to them those are solid republicans. so, new hampshire moves from lean democrat to a tossup. a straightup tossup. ohio moves from tossup to lean republican and indiana and missouri go from lean republican to solid republican. so you see what that does to numbers? secretary clinton with 283. you need 2 0 -- 270. there are 63 in the tossups. tossup in florida, tossup in iowa, arizona, utah, nevada, give all of those to donald trump. every single one of the tossups, trump gets them, hillary clinton is the president. he still has to flip something. he has to flip a blue state or a light blue state. he needs 14 to get to -- to push her below, right? he needs all of the tossups and 14. so some combination, arizona and utah, flip them, he has a chance. you follow? his path is still narrow but weirdly not as narrow is a six minutes ago. our decision team just made a chang. could there be more
