who obviously occupies house and senate does vin influence on the markets longer term. [closing bell rings] we're not doing anything in advance of the election on november 8th. that would change our portfolio construction. it is much more fundamentally driven. liz: mark luschini thank you very much. we have big names like intel and yahoo! coming up. david and melissa. david: we do indeed. we await earnings from intel out any moment now. we'll see yet another beat for the chipmaker company. that is what a lot of people are expecting i'm david asman. melissa: i'm melissa francis. this is "after the bell." we'll get details on intel and big market movers, here is what else we have coming up this hour. donald trump wrapping up a rally in colorado springs moments ago. the republican nominee making major policy announcement to quote drain the swamp in washington as wikileaks releases yet another round of emails from the hillary clinton campaign.

the new trove of documents showing even more secrets from the democratic nominee and battle to take back mosul. isis is latest, last major strong hold in iraq. that is underway right now of the terror group using ieds and booby-traps to defend its territory. what this means for u.s.-led military operation. david: a lot to cover. first back to the markets. the dow ending the day to the upside, even though it was way off its highs. unitedhealth, goldman sachs an intel among biggest winners. trader scott shellady watching action in oil and gold. there were buyers from the cme. and lori rothman on the floor of the new york stock exchange. lori, first to you. >> hi, there, david. so stocks did rally today. markets are up two of the last three sessions to be more accurate. the leading industries were health care and technology. look at dow. really unpack it here. huge stories for many of the dow components, starting with unitedhealth group, number one gainer on industrial average

today, up better than just 7% it came down here last couple minutes. largest u.s. health insurer in the u.s. reported better than expected quarterly profit and goldman sachs up on better-than-expected earnings and revenue thanks to a surge in bond trading for goldman sachs. on the downside ibm reporting this time yesterday. shares were down, even though ibm beat on earnings and revenue it still missed margins. a lot of people concerned about margin deterioration, that ibm may be spending too much on its cloud business. johnson & johnson also a big decliner. this is one of the only non-earnings related stories today. shares down as competitor pfizer, to its remicade, this is j&j drug, that is arthritis drug, pfizer drug is coming to market. that really hurt johnson & johnson today, or at least expectation that will cut into sales of that blockbuster drug. we had homebuilder sentiment today, a little lower but largely in line. you can see homebuilders as a

group had a nice day, all green on the screen for the home building names. back to you guys. melissa: lori, thank you so much. scott, oil snapping a two-day down streak. why did we see the gain today? >> you know i will blame it on mid-east tensions, number one. number two, we're starting to see opec cracks come abart but at the end of the day we have rig count so low here, folks are waiting for demand market to slowly but surely pick up because if we do we won't be able to keep up with it. not seeing from empire manufacturing or cpi number we got today. i think traders are there to buy it under $50 in hopes we see 53 or 55 soon. david: intel numbers are out. let's go to lori for the details. go ahead, lori. lori, we got intel earnings. >> hi, can you hear me? i'm running on camera. hi, guys. melissa: go ahead, lori. >> hi, guys, sorry, we're running all over the floor.

it is a beat on top and bottom line. sorry about that, 80 cents versus 73 cents per share on the estimate. revenue pretty good. 125.8 billion versus -- 15.58. that is 8% increase from this y. shares in reaction are way down, down about 4% right now and falling. you know i just ran out from my shot at top of the show for you guys if you want to bear with me. looks like first glance as i look at headlines here, the guidance, they have got restructuring issues and some guidance. intel benefited. they just recently increased their revenue just last month on what they're seeing as improving pc demand, wireless, cloud computing data storage industries key for intel as it tries once again to turn around it is business after the pc slowdown was the story of the last year and it really hurt the stock. shares are not impressing wall street here.

they have come in a little bit, down about 3.3%. hopefully have a little more clarity for you. david: lori, thank you very much. to weigh in kevin kelly, recon capital partners and gary kaltbaum, kaltbaum capital management and fox news contributor. gary, i got to remember when that stock was at $24 a share for longest time and popped and holding its own, isn't it? >> intel had a good move and raised guidance and had stock moving but i got to tell you the strongest group in the market over last couple months has been semiconductor as almost every stock in the industry is bought out or proposed that is i'm not sure will last. it is down 3, 4% in the after-market. maybe the run is over. david: kevin, is the run over. >> they have always been over. david: intel is run over? >> behind the eight ball coming

internet of things and trying to push towards the mobile chipset area but think about, other companies have led the way in that especially arm holdings which got picked up in recently bought out. so i say this run is over. david: gary, i want to switch to social security. we had announcement today, big deal, that they're going to raise the cost of living allowance for retirees .3%. that is right, point .3%. i mean one of the tiniest -- i didn't know you could increase it. comes out to $5 a month. what do you think of this? >> looks like everybody can buy an extra krispy kreme doughnut with that. look, bottom line is, i've been saying it for years, there is going to be an endgame on social security if they don't get in front of it and seems like every day they keep yapping and every day nothing gets done. david: yeah. >> the unfortunate thing now is somebody who is getting paid is off of workers today. that wasn't way it was supposed to be. david: no, no not all.

>> what happened the lockbox? no lockbox. david: what happened to cost of living raises, kevin? inflation past 12 month, but 1.5%. ..3% is 500% less than 1.5%. so they are 500% off of this cost of living raise, kevin. >> yeah, to take into consideration the regular consumer, average individual who has felt inflation higher than that 1 1/2% -- david: of course. >> because of services economy which everyone is depending on here. david: services and cost of government, the whole range of things. >> it has gone up. >> and health care. >> they need, and health care is big push they do need to fix social security. there is no cash there. mean test it. and raise ages. melissa: go to lori rothman. she has yahoo! earnings right now. lori, what do you see? >> hi, there. beat in terms of top and bottom line. melissa i don't think anybody really cares but they're teeing into, in the release yahoo! busy integrating with the verizon acquisition of yahoo!.

as you know yahoo! said it wouldn't do a post-earnings conference call because so much going on with verizon. a lot of analysts weighed in suggesting because of that massive data breach and yahoo! role in government email snooping program that they may have to make concessions to verizon to get verizon to ultimately yahoo!. having said all that, yahoo!'s shares are higher by about she quarters of 1%. i was -- 3/4 of 1%. 15 minutes before closing bell, yahoo! shares turned negative. there was not a lot of confidence going into the report. 14 cents a share is the latest quarter on an even match to estimates on revenue, $1.31 billion. that is a 6.6% increase on revenue from this time last year. send it back to you. melissa: so, lori, i'm looking at estimate, it is an actual beat by 6 cents but we're still seeing stock sitting pretty steady, right? >> yes.

looks like yahoo! is up 3/4 of 1%. it was down toward the closing bell but it reversed. because of this one comment i'm seeing so far they're talking about their plans. melissa: right. >> veck r working with verizon. the quote is we're busy integrating with verizon to get the deal done. we were not expecting yahoo! to say anything about this. they canceled the call, did address it. albeit that is it so far. melissa: lori, thank you. >> you got it. melissa: voting with their pocketbooks, it seems. bank of america "usa today," 65% of millenials will give more weight to candidate's stance on economy than social issues, more weight. 75% see their financial future affected by outcome of the election but that begs the question who do they think will help their pocketbook more? gary, i worry the person who will give them more free stuff and won't have the foresight to see they will pay for that down the road. >> free everything.

look, here's the problem, with i hope millenials understand, there is nothing free. melissa: right. >> you may get something free now but you will pay for later. melissa: with higher taxes. >> and higher taxes, you got it, will not affect well think. all the talk about going after wealthy. what it does, it prevents others from becoming wealthy because every step up the ladder government is there with sleazy, slimy hand grabbing money out of your pocket, putting it into theirs. i hope they get it. i hope they understand it. melissa: yeah. kevin this is so frustrating for me as someone who spent years studying economics, they get it, that the white house and washington affects their pocketbook but they see it as free giveaways and don't get that stifled economy, that nothing is he free, you're going to pay for it down the line with interest, where am i going wrong? >> i think everyone will be pleasantly surprised by millenials because when they actually join the workforce and see what taxes they're paying

especially they learn what fica stands for for the first time they actually come around and -- melissa: you think? >> yeah, absolutely. melissa: okay. >> i heard it time and time again. they don't think washington will operate in their best interests. so they don't believe they're actually going to get free college education. melissa: i hope so. >> as they currently seeing and rejecting affordable care act. listen you want us to pay in for something at high rate where we're not going to get the benefits. then all of sudden it is supposed to pay for the elderly people we want and cost us more? no. that is why you've seen affordable care act not do well. i think they come out and vote their pocketbooks, lower taxes for right candidate. >> i hope so, from your lips to millenials ears. thanks to both of you guys. david. david: number one textbook for economic courses today,s today capital. no surprise. that is what they're learning. that is economics. hillary clinton dealing with another document dump. 11th batch from wikileaks

from john podesta's personal account. more with ties from the clinton campaign and mainstream media. we have details coming up. melissa: newly-released fbi documents allege a top state department official offered in the fbi age int's own words, a quid pro quo to him. david: very important. his own words. melissa: yes. david: donald trump slamming the media calling the election rigged. president obama is telling the republican nominee to stop whining. our political panel is he withing in on trump versus the media. >> you start whining before the game's even over, whenever things are going badly for you and you lose you start blaming somebody else? then you don't have what it takes to be in this job. (music playing) ♪ push it real good... (announcer vo) or you can take a joyride. bye bye, errands, we sing out loud here. siriusxm. road happy.

melissa: the 11th wikileaks

batch from the clinton campaign coming out once again revealing controversial conversations from the campaign. peter barnes has been sifting through the emails and there is a lot there today. peter, what have you seen? reporter: melissa, we want to first get to the president his defense of the fbi and state department in the matter of secretary clinton's use of private email because as you know these new documents from the fbi have surfaced that possibly show a senior state department official trying to bargain with the fbi to change the classification on at least one of secretary clinton's private emails. according to the fbi's interview notes, known as 302s, one of clinton's close allies, state department undersecretary of management patrick kennedy, may have wanted to make a deal with the fbi, if the bureau agreed to downgrade classification of one of clinton's emails the state department could offer the fbi an increase in number of slots

overseas for its agents, calling it a quid quote pro, an agent wrote a colleague of his, that kennedy advised him in exchange for marking the email unclassified, state would reciprocate by allowing the fbi to place more agents in countries where they are presently forbidden. officials from the state department and fbi says there was no quid pro quo, though the fbi did say in a statement these conversations did happen and subjects were covered. the president said there wasn't one either. >> the, notion or the accounts that have been put out there are just not true, based on what we have seen, heard, learned, some of the more sensational implications are appearances, as you stated them, are not based on actual events. reporter: the president speaking

at a press conference today with the prime minister of italy who is here for a state visit. donald trump today called for patrick kennedy to be fired. now in these new wikileak emails, melissa, interesting, we got one from march of 2016 after, from john podesta to hillary rodham clinton after super tuesday in which he proposed to here a number of potential vice-presidential candidates, lots of names you might recognize from politics but here are some from business he put on his list. michael bloomberg, us sue la burns, ceo of xerox, tim cook of apple, bill gates, former founder of microsoft and mukhtar kent, ceo of coca-cola, and howard schultz, ceo of starbucks. melissa. melissa: dividing them all into food groups. there you go, peter. >> exactly. david: we're all food groups.

you are what you eat they say. lani davis, former counsel to president clinton. >> good to see you, david. david: i understand you don't want to talk about wikileaks memos because they were stolen and they were hacked and you don't want to give them any kind of credibility, however, they're out there, and there is one that does have its name attached to you, that is suggesting that it was an email that you sent that suggests that you were reluctant about their position, hillary clinton's position not to release the speeches that bernie sanders wanted released. i know you don't want to justify this wikileaks leak, but did you actually, were you in favor of opening up the books on these bank speeches before the hillary campaign was willing to do that? >> well, first you talk about what i want. even sometimes i don't know what i want and i don't know how you know what i want. i haven't read email is referring to, all i told your producer but -- david: should i read it to you,

lani? >> you can read it to me but i'm not going to know whether it is for real given russian hack. david: you may have may remember it. if you don't tell me, but it says, hope there is no debate about full and immediate release. whatever nice words she said, not releasing or delay and then, my opinion, for what it's worth, release later as is inevitable is worse. this is dated february 5th, 2016. according to the doc. do you remember writing that? >> i don't remember those specific words but i do think i would say for what it's worth, may not be a lot but i think reading speeches now, i just wrote a column in the hill on the public record which i say, "the washington post" said the scandal is once you read the speeches, they were so reasonable and so consistent with her views on helping consumers versus big banks that cause what we would call almost a great depression, that they are actually great speeches and

"the washington post" pays them editorially. david: so the hillary campaign is wrong holding them as long as they did, turning them into issue. fbi memos are interesting. right now center of controversy, memo, these are not wikileaks, these are files fbi released. >> yes. david: is the state department request by one, patrick kennedy, to the fbi, to reclassify something that was classified at, which involved a hillary email that went on her personal server. what do you make of all this? >> well, first of all i can give you facts that you and i will agree on. david: sure. >> then we'll decide. fact number one, this has nothing to do with hillary clinton. patrick kennedy is a career diplomat, both republican and democratic administrations. nothing to do with hillary clinton. fact. fact two, patrick kennedy was arguing with an fbi agent about a retroactive judgment about something three years before

whether it should or should not be classified. david: no, no. hold on a second. it had been classified according to all of the analysts who looked at it. that is what the fbi had said. it was classified. >> yes. david: the state department wanted to declassify it. >> there was a disagreement between kennedy and the fbi agent. david: let me stop you here, lani, because the problem is, that time and again hillary clinton has said i did not email any classified material to anyone on and these are the many times that she said that. now of course comey, who decided not to prosecute her but the head of fbi said that is not true. he was asked specifically. secretary clinton, was there nothing marked classified on her emails either sent or received, that is true. that is not true. there was classified material emailed at the time it was sent. that is what comey said. totally contradicts what hillary clinton has said. >> well, i was in the middle of giving you three facts but i will respond to your statement. david: please.

>> or question. she said that she never sent or received anything marked classified and director comey at a congressional hearing said in fact she never did receive anything marked classified. there was a -- david: lani, i'm looking at transcript, that is not what it says. that is not true. that is his word. >> excuse me. director comey at a congressional hearing said, and you can check the transcript, that the little c on three out of 30,000 emails would not have been recognized as a proper classification label by an expert in classification. david: lani, he says they were classified, that is irrelevant, that, what she said is they were not classified and in fact he says they were classified material at the time that they were sent. he said that. she said something different. that is the fact. >> and we both agree that she said she never sent or received anything marked classified and director comey --

david: we do not agree with that, nor does comey. >> i will allow anybody, this is now on tape, we'll allow a fact check whether director comey -- david: "politifact" already done that. "politifact" already done that, lanny. >> establish that director comey said in congressional testimony, what i just said, david. sorry, check it out. david: i'm sorry that he disagreed with you and hillary clinton that she never sent material that was classified. >> apparently not listening david. check out the transcript. the transcript says -- david: i've got the transcript. >> the transcript said she never sent or received anything properly marked. david: you're using that word properly. she did not use that word. she did not use that word when she sent, she said -- >> she said she had not received anything classified. david: i have gone way over time. >> even an expert agreed with director comey. you don't like citing you facts. david: the facts are the facts.

we'll let viewers decide. >> we sure will. fact check what i just said. david: went way over time. melissa: we'll be right back. we'll be right back. when a moment turns romantic, why pause to take a pill? or stop to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, or adempas for pulmonary hypertension, as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure.

david: we are just about 28 hours away from the final presidential debate tomorrow night ins las vegas. while hillary clinton is laying low preparing for debate, donald trump was out in full force in colorado this afternoon, but what can we expect from both nominees at debate? how could it potentially impact the election? our own connell mcshane live in las vegas. did i mention a fox news anchor hosting debate? reporter: exactly, david. looking for chris wallace to moderate the debate. we've seen different approaches of candidates leading up to the debate. listening to your interview with lanny davis and petitioner barnes. news flow is not positive for hillary clinton whether wikileaks or fbi story. her standing in the polls is not

affected by any of that monmouth university poll in state of nevada shows her up 7 after trailing donald trump in middle of last month in the same monmouth poll. that is the trend and she has been laying low. we caught a brief glimpse in new york before she boarded her campaign plane to head here for the las vegas debate. anything but laying low for donald trump. we're told he did debate prep this morning. he took more shots in colorado springs as we've become used to as he cause the dishonest media but he also put a new proposal forward. one would require a constitutional amendment. listen. >> if i'm elected president, i will push for a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on all members about congress. [applause] reporter: term limits. crowd loved it. we don't know how details mr. trump would implement all of that.

but he did propose it today. finally, david, chris wallace, right behind me at thomas and mack center. put out topics in no particular order. debt and entitlements will come up. immigration and economy also on the list. the other three, supreme court, foreign hot spots and fitness to be president. there you go. looking forward to it. david: we are all looking forward to it. melissa. melissa: donald trump continuing to slam the media and saying the election is rigged against him. >> the media, as merely and it truly is, it is just an extension of the clinton campaign. [booing] the press has created a rigged system and poisoned the mind of so many of our voters. melissa: christie setzer, new heights communication president. brad blakeman, former george w. bush senior staffer. thanks to both of you for joining us. >> thanks. melissa: brad, he is talking

about the media being rigged but as you look through flow of the stories and see emails coming out, the one, dividing vice-presidential candidates into food groups based on their gender and ethnicity, the 302 from the fbi of their own agent saying that he felt, you know, that he was offer ad quid pro quo, alerting others to what had come from the state department, not getting the same kind of ink as the same story from donald trump. you know, same type of, same story over number of days. retreading it instead of doing other things. how does that make you feel about the mainstream media? >> well the mainstream media, you're fighting against two adversaries. one is the media and two is your opponent. having said that, donald trump has been complicit in the media covering himself instead of hillary clinton by staying on these stories that are not helpful to him winning the presidency. whether it's the women who have

come forward or whether it's the rigged system. winners talk about winning. winners don't talk about losing. donald trump has to get back and hopefully this debate tomorrow night will put him back on course because there is not much more time for him to stick to the issues. when he does he does very well. it is when he gets off track he loses points. melissa: immediately he himself round it right back to issue of women which is huge mistake on his part. christie, let me show you some stats from journalists that work for media companies. this comes from the center for public integrity. just talking about the amount of donations which i'm surprised that you see journalists giving money to political campaigns at all because so many places that is forbidden. $382,000 for clinton, versus paltry 14,000 for trump. certainly not a lot of journalists putting their money behind donald trump. does that tell you how they really feel? >> i'm not sure what that tells you when you see that during the

primary donald trump got about $2 billion in free advertising it has been estimated. you saw -- melissa: but having him on every day doesn't help him when he goes on -- hang on. >> certainly helped in the primary, melissa. certainly helped in the primary. people like jeb bush, marco rubio, they really just couldn't get traction because they frankly couldn't get on air. melissa: you could make the same argument what is going on right now and it is not helping him. they're putting on trump every day. we don't see hillary clinton because she is off practicing an resting and whatever else. it is helping her where it was hurting them. i don't think that would be -- >> that would be donald trump's fault. that would be donald trump's fault because, you know, certainly there is difference between what was happening in the primary when -- melissa: not getting same amount of coverage. >> maybe. maybe that is true. melissa: yeah. >> during the primary what he was saying and doing i think was seen as entertainment and sort of a spectacle both by large numbers of public, also i think

by a lot of people in the media. that is why he got so much coverage. now he is getting so much coverage, somewhat for the same reason. certainly it is -- melissa: okay. >> a spectacle for someone like him to say that he is sexually assaulted women, you know obviously not playing out as well for him. melissa: stick around, david. david: be sure to watch fox business for live debate coverage, starts at 6:00 p.m. eastern time for the final debate. i'm going to be there up until 1:00 a.m. that is tomorrow night. melissa: whoo-hoo. david: looking forward to it. we are. the whole thing. asking to unclassify hillary clinton emails the state department firing back expense allegations that it tried to work out a quid pro quo with the fbi. details on new documents that might make their defense much more difficult. melissa: plus staying on message. the message donald trump's wife has for the republican nominee. that's next. >> we looked into this. there was no quid pro quo, even suggested. there wasn't an inkling of that. the fbi said the same thing. areg up that stock again?

well you need to think about selling some of it. my dad gave me those shares, you know. he ran that company. i get it. but you know i think you own too much. gotta manage your risk. and you've gotta switch to decaf. an honest opinion, even if you disagree. with 13,000 financial advisors, it's how edward jones makes sense of investing.

recengrand prix race cars-benz made history when it sold for a record price of just under $30 million. and now, another mercedes-benz makes history selling at just over $30,000. and to think this one actually has a surround-sound stereo. the 2016 cla. lease the cla250 for $299 a month at your local mercedes-benz dealer. mercedes-benz. the best or nothing. melissa: two tech stocks reporting results after the bell. the stocks are moving in opposite directions. let's go back to lori rothman for an update. hi, lori. >> we were expecting big things from intel or at least better things as even intel increased its own revenue guidance a month ago seeing improvement in pc demand but not so.

fourth quarter revenue guidance huge concern for wall street, way lower than what thomson reuters analysts had predicted. gross margin forecast is also weaker. however intel did report over 9% growth in revenue in the third quarter. that is the reporting quarter. earlier figures were for again the guidance, fourth quarter, next quarter. eps 80 cents, versus 73 cents. 15.8 billion. versus are 15.58 billion which was the forecast. yahoo!, this was beat on top and bottom line but ceo marissa mayer she takes or we take deep responsibility protecting our users and security of their information. yahoo! shares have turned higher in extended hours probably as investors are happy to hear about yahoo! pending acquisition with verizon is out there. back to you. melissa: lori, thank you so much. david: as we've been saying all hour, newly-released fbi documents show one of hillary clinton's top aides at state department proposing a quid pro quo, his words with fbi over hillary's classified emails.

here is bill gavin, former fbi assistant director. bill, good to see you. let's go through step by step. want to get your idea what was legal and what wasn't. fbi was asked to alter evidence they had pertaining to an fbi investigation. isn't that in and of itself illegal? >> it is, particularly david, i'm a little unclear but if in fact this document had been subpoenaed, why would anybody try to alter the classification of the document once that had occurred? that is just absolutely wrong and anybody's estimation. david: now offering a favor in exchange for altering that is bad enough, but then to offer an a favor for in exchange for that declassification, does that double the crime? >> well it seems that the request by the bureau at an earlier time to get more billets overseas for investigators from the fbi to be stationed overseas, came up at an earlier

set of circumstances. however, to raise that issue at the same time that the issue of declassification was being raised is ridiculous. it shows even in sloppy way a quid pro quo sitting there. david: bill, did anything like that happen to you when you were in at the fbi? >> no, thank god it didn't, david. david: what happened to the fbi? has it become a political tool? >> i don't think it has become a political tool. i think maybe some decisionses that were made could have been better decisions. however, with that said, i think that what is going on right now, i think when we have to look at individual who requested the declassification, namely patrick kennedy, this is the same individual who i believe did the benghazi investigation and found hillary totally without fault. david: it is. >> this is ridiculous. david: by the way, on another matter, very quickly, mike pence was just today at the place that

was fire bombed, the republican headquarters, that was firebombed in north carolina. he called it political terrorism. you probably haven't seen it if you reading mainstream media because they haven't been covering it, but is it political terrorism, is he right? >> somebody needs to do investigative work to find out who actually caused the fire, whether some crazy person throwing a firebomb through the window, or whether or not it was done, particularly because this was a political situation. david: there was graffiti on the walls that suggested that it was political, saying get out of town, you're a nazi. bill, we have to leave it at that love to have you here. please come back soon, okay. >> my pleasure, david. david: melissa. melissa: fight for mosul, new details on the battle to capture iraq's second largest city for isis. plus the race for the white house affecterring the electoral scorecard. why one previously red state may be changing its stance?

we'll tell you which one.

melissa: the fight to retake mosul from the islamic state. iraqi and kurdish forces closing in on isis, fighting to take back iraq's second largest city. the u.s.-led coalition making progress despite strong resistance from the terrorist group. fox news's john huddy is live in jerusalem with the latest. john, what do you know? >> well, melissa, yeah those iraqi and kurdish forces are also getting a lot of help from the u.s.-led coalition's airstrikes. that continues as we speak, as they continue to push into the areas basically on the outskirts of mosul right now. also a pentagon spokesman said earlier today that more than 100 u.s. special operation troops are on the ground outside of mosul embedded with iraqi and kurdish forces, though he added they are not on the front lines. that said, as i mentioned, u.s.-led coalition airstrikes

have been helping those kurdish iraqi forces that are firing relentless artillery fire and infantry troops fighting isis militants. today there was a pause in the fighting as iraqi and kurdish commanders basically consolidated gains because they moved so quickly into the areas, taking control of 80 square miles of territory surrounding mosul and also retaking at this point, an estimated 10 villages. they are being careful. they're moving fairly cautiously into these areas because of the concern about attacks on civilians. the possibility of civilian casualties is certainly high, along with the potential of a massive humanitarian crisis. keep in mind that mosul is a city of 1.5 million residents. the u.n. says that it is preparing for possibly as many as 200,000 refugees trying to escape the city in coming days

or that said in the coming weeks. there are also concerns about isis using people as human shields as we have seen, melissa, in other fights, in particular the battle fora mahdi. so that also remains a very serious concern and this particular fight could take weeks if not months according to iraqi military commanders. melissa. melissa: john, thank you for that report. david? david: well the electoral outlook is shifting. the fox news decision team is changing the elector rating from solid republican which it was to lean republican. donald trump still appearing to have advantage in the state. texas which has 38 electoral votes has not voted democratic in presidential election since it went for jimmy carter way back in 1976, melissa. melissa: wow. there are some hurt feelings over the bushes. you don't know how that fans out in texas. david: that is true.

melissa: that makes it a little different. david: only california has more than texas. melissa: that amazing. big problem. all right the clash of presidential candidates, hillary clinton and donald trump set to face off. why this could be the last chance to shift momentum.

to talk about issues that american people want to hear about. melissa: so will "the donald" stay on message? take it to our panel, christie setter is and brad blakeman are back with us. christie i feel like he will not take his wife's advice. i feel like she is not the first one to give him this advice. do you think she is effective spokesperson for him at all, start with that? >> i do actually. i think she comes across as genuine. i felt badly for her today when she was forced to get out there and defend him about the "access hollywood" tape. but because they have used her so rarely, and she does come across as kind, i actually think she is a very good surrogate for him. melissa: yeah. brad, do you think she would be more effective if he was by her side? that is some of the comments i

heard today, when you think back to when bill and hillary clinton gone out on apology tour and it has worked for them, hillary clinton was sitting next to him but she was also a lot more quiet. i don't know if donald trump can sit next to somebody else and let them speak, what do you think? >> right. i think that would be a great thing to do, let donald trump sit there and be quiet and show some contrition to have his wife speak. i think she did a great job. she wasn't forced to go out there. she did it because she loved her husband. donald trump has changed over the years. we've seen him change during this election cycle, but i will say this, chris wallace will be a task master. he has six, 15 minute segments, substantive segments. he will hold both candidates feet to the fire to be substantive and talk about policy. melissa: christie, we keep talking about last chance, last chance, we said it couple times, but it has turned out to be a pivotal moment and a lot of

people watched last two, no reason to think it wouldn't happen this third time. do you think, i'm not pandering here as a fox business, do you think chris will make a difference because he is very tough? it is one guy whose focused on being very tough on both sides and i don't know, what do you expect in that sense? >> i think there are very few undecideds left out there. i think trump has to clear very basic bar, can he appear presidential in front of a national audience? and so, you know to the extent that chris can draw that out of him, i think that would be very, very important to trump's campaign, but you know, the optics here are such, that clinton is tremendously in the catbird seat. she has commanding lead in national, and in battleground state polls. trump needs to pull off something really incredible tomorrow night. melissa: no, i agree. we'll end on the note because that is absolutely true. thanks to both of you. >> pleasure.

melissa: brand new fox news polls coming out tonight 6:00 p.m. eastern. charles payne will break down what the polls reveal as we get closer to election day. david: okay. and before we go to break we have some breaking news on wells fargo former ceo john stumpf. he has now resigned from the boards of target and chevron. that is effective immediately. as you might remember he stepped down as wells fargo chairman and ceo last week. coming up an entire football team taking a seat as one brave football player takes a stand to honor america. you don't want to miss this coming up.
