richard socarides and i know you must look at this and say the glass is half full, but in the glass half is a poll in quinnipiac that's essentially tied right now. given that i know donald trump has had the worst week imaginable in the trump campaign, how is it that hillary clinton isn't leading by more than four in iowa? more than one in florida? >> let me say a couple of things and i think the worst is yet to come because i think he will become more unhinged and we will see more things like what we saw today. i don't think the worst week. i think the worst week is yet to come, but i do think that the election will be close. i think the country is closely divided between democrats and republicans and i think that unless mr. trump goes completely off the rail which is is very possible, i think the election will continue to be close, and i think the democrats cannot take these poll numbers for granted because i think that we have to -- if we want to prevent donald trump from being elected president and we want to see hillary clinton president we have to do everything we need to do, but mo

candidates, plenty to talk about with clinton supporter and former bill clinton senior staffer richard socarideslly and david gergen is back with us and katie mcmainy and atlanta contributor peter beinart, full tables for you. kayleigh, i want to start with you, very little good news for donald trump and virtually no good news in these polls today, as a trump supporter how worried are you? >> hillary clinton has the advantage right now and so worrisome are the state polls particularly in the rust states and states where donald trump as the republican nominee has an advantage at winning over someone like ted cruz. he resonates with these working class voters and we see him dragging behind double digits in most of those states. and the really good news is when you look at the fox news poll from yesterday on the economy, he's up by five points and on who can handle isis, he's up by nine points. the problem is his message is not getting through. he was off message this week. if this is an election about issues that americans care most about which are terrorism and the economy he wins and if it's abo
