. >> joining me now is anne kornbluth and michael skirmonish and chris kofinis. we haven't had a chance to talk with you for a couple of days. your studio was affected by the storm, like so many who planned to vote in new jersey and new york. we'll get to that. what's your feeling right now? you sat back out of the media glare and digest this as a regular voter in some ways. >> i think that passion is the intangible. you can't measure. you can't poll passion. i buy into the numbers because they seem to be fairly uniform, that it's within a whisker on a popular vote contest. there's an advantage for president obama. the one intangible for governor romney is the level of passion xhfs on the president's side four years ago but is on governor romney's side come together. what does it mean? it means the president is a favorite going into it, but i wouldn't be surprised by any outcome come wednesday. >> let me bring you in on this, anne. everybody says they have the best game on the ground and have one with enthusiastic i. to play what stephanie cutter said regarding m

>> let's ask former labor department chief of staff paul conway and chris kofinis.f you joining this. paul, what is your big bet for the jobs number tomorrow? >> actually i'm thinking it may stay the same or go slightly downward. we'll have to see. it will be a tight bracket whether it goes up or down. melissa: 7.8% you think it could slip to 7.7 or something like that. >> 7.7 to 7.9. i don't think anything dramatic. as we go into election day people will take a look at, whatever the vary rnss in number will it change what the think of past four years. i don't think the number will pack a wallop of undecided voters on president obama's economic record. melissa: chris what do you think? we're still grappling with the number last month. two numbers didn't go together from the household survey and payroll survey 759,000 jobs and didn't show up on payrolls of companies. >> listen, i think it is going to probably exceed expectations. i think expectations for the labor number is 125. i think my guess it will be a little bit higher than that. i think unemployment rate will

chris kofinis, former chief of staff to senator joe manchin of west virginia. we had your former boss senator manchin, yesterday, chris. he said let's go to washington. let's be bipartisan and get together and move the country forward on issues that matter. what do you think the chances are? >> well, you know i want to be optimistic. i think there is an opportunity there. i think republicans were deliver ad pretty powerful message iners terms of defeat and in terms of demographic realities they now face. you now have the election. president will not run for re-election. that is no longer a factor. i think both sides have come to terms with reality there are big problems that need solutions and you're going to have to compromise. i think devil is in the details. it ails is. if republicans and certain factions of republicans are willing to compromise, if the other faction is smaller, basically hold hard-line on revenues and want entitlement reform with no revenues that will not be negotiating point for democrats i can tell you. i think that is the challenge. jon:
