joining me is doug schoen.bring you in ahead of the insiders tonight because i want to tap in to your experience in a couple of ways. earlier today we saw the video. we can pop it up so we can reference it on point here that someone captured on their smartphone from a distance. it looked like hillary clinton waiting for the motorcade to arrive. this is not that video but we can show it when they choose to put it on the screen. as that was happening, you see her limp, people catching her. in those moments, here it is. describe what is happening behind the scenes and the people around hillary clinton. >> the question that gets asked is how ill is the former secretary, former first lady, and does she need hospitalization? the last thing they want to do is bring hillary clinton to a hospital. they brought her to chelsea's apartment, her daughter and she is now, according to her doctor rehydrated but that decision has huge, huge political ramifications because the big issue now is what will be the fallout of the dia

doug schoen is a democratic pollster and former adviser to president bill clinton. >> thanks, paul. >> when you were here i gave you a hard time because the brace had widened with clinton and you had said this is a really a pick em race. now it's back to where you said, so i congratulations. >> thank you. >> now, why is it tightening again? >> a couple of reasons. first, the convention bounce that secretary clinton had has largely eroded. second, the continuing e-mail scandal she has has shown no signs of ebaiting with the release of the fbi notes and additional e-mails. and third, paul, i don't think fundamentally the american people or a no yomajority of th want to elect secretary clinton and they have two choices they have doubts about, secretary clinton and donald trump. >> what are the doubts about clinton? the fact they're relukt tant to vote for somebody in the public eye for 25 years and so controversial and they want to move on to something new? is it that basic? >> and there is a lack of trust and credibility in the secretary of state with negative ratings in those areas, ar

and doug schoen from fox news contributor. let me start with you, doug.retty disgusting with all of these terrorist attacks hillary says donald trump is saying radical islamists is aiding and abetting, especially coming from a woman that sucked up the iranians, gave them $150 billion, did nothing when the syrians used weapons of mass destruction on their own people, and supported morsi with the muslim brotherhood. >> on a day like today, we should all stand together including me and secretary clinton against -- >> but she cannot say radical islam. >> to say what she said is a political and profound mistake. the fact that she said what you quoted is wrong on the merits, it is wrong substantively, and i think she needs to change her approach if she is going to benefit in the debates. i was disappointed as a clinton supporter who was hoping for more. >> sara, that's a pretty strong reaction from a democrat. >> an american. >> an american democrat. >> an american. >> he is an american democrat, yes. but he is right. it is a fallacy on its face. i mean isis do

harris: so doug schoen, one of our fox news contributors, spent six years in the clinton white houseand kind of echoing what you're saying, kennedy, that the best idea to him would have been for her to take these two weeks off, let her surrogates -- one of whom who has a 58% approval rating, the current president -- let them do whatever and sit back and get ready for that 100 million-viewer moment -- kennedy: whoa. harris: -- which is what some are saying with tv and social media, everybody tuning in at that point be, get ready for that first debate. that's what doug was saying. he's known her a long, long time and he said, of course, she probably wouldn't listen to that. sandra: you could also say she's taking on a risk by putting herself back out in front of cameras for the potential for another accident. kennedy: what if she has a coughing fit? what if it's something as simple as that? i don't know that she helps herself necessarily. i know she's probably desperate to, she's a hard worker, and she wants to get back out there. but one minor misstep, and now everyone's going to have

harris: doug schoen, one much our fox news contributors, worked in the white house for six years andws the clinton very well, he said that switch you saw and her response to the bombings here in new york was indicative of the fact she is looking at the message that is first out by donald trump and making a shift. that is his opinion. we'll move on. be sure to tune into "hannity" tonight, i always do, sean host as townhall with donald trump focusing on the republican nominee's outreach to black voters. mr. trump will take questions from the audience. there will be some special guests. tonight 10:00 p.m. eastern, right here on fnc. your night is made. pop your corn. >>> many democrats predicted donald trump would be taken down by this point in the election cycle. a new poll shows hillary clinton is slipping in some key battle states, battleground states as the race tightens. her campaign strategy, is it working or falling short. >>> new allegations of pay-to-play after a report found clinton gave state department appointments to nearly 200 political donors. more next. ♪ is depression m

joining us now, doug schoen and noelle nikpour. it's great to see you both.'m not arguing that hillary clinton gave the hydrogen bomb to the soviets, but i am arguing what's obvious, which is if a normal citizen had done this, he'd be indicted, and you know that's true. so how can you look at what hillary did and the response from the justice department and not conclude the system is actually rigged in favor of people with power? >> here's what i would tell you. secretary clinton, as a democrat of conscience, clearly made profound errors. the fbi said it was extremely careless, not gross nejgligence. tucker, this is politics. you know what? i don't defend it. i was troubled, deeply troubled, by what i saw today. that being said, as a democrat, i still support secretary clinton. but these are troubling, troubling revelations, rest assured. >> i'm not even attacking hillary clinton. i think this is what hillary clinton does. i think it's what she's always done, no more than you can attack a scorpion for stinging you. that's what they do. i'm attacking the obama

let's bring in doug schoen and matt schlapp. gentlemen, nice to see you here. , has martha noted in the past segment. the past two week we have seen a new donald trump. the unfavorables and the character trait numbers may not be that great for either ones. but donald trump is closing the gap with hillary clinton. >> that's certainly true. but it's a relatively narrow movement. the secretary of state is still ahead in virtually every swing state save perhaps florida. she has got about a 75-80% chance of victory. both candidate are widely disliked. but there are more democrats than republicans and hillary outspent donald trump 20-1. i would rather be hillary clinton than donald trump as we head into labor day. >> doug is right, you would rather be up in the polls than down in the polls. there has been a narrowing in the polls. i think the masterful trip down to see the president of mexico -- i think the key in this poll is to look at the four-way race. the polls the clinton campaign are hyping. are two-way polls. you need to look at all four of those candidates. t

doug schoen, former advisor to president bill clinton. for "washington times." th fox news contributors and observers of politics, international issues. how does the not just a presidential candidate, doug, but the governor of new mexico not know the answer to that question? which by the way he says he neil cavuto later to try to explain but wow? >> well, he should know but there is a practical import to this that goes beyond the oops moment. he was up to about 10, some polls, 12%. if he got to 15% or if he gets there, he would you qualify for the debates, which would change the political landscape fundamentally with two very unpopular presidential candidates, but given his clear, lack of readiness for prime time, literally and metaphorically, this is going to make people ask a lot more questions about gary johnson, particularly those who might have been flirting with the libertarian party. martha: you think, monica, about the picture of that little boy, and maybe we can put that back up on the screen. you think about the numbers, children killed in tens of thous

. >> he's going to jump in the car with doug schoen and reince priebus says donald trump is very mucht as he heads into this. let's watch that. >> donald trump, look, the outsider, the person who has never ron before, let alone be in a presidential debate, but he's going to be red, and i think one of the things that donald trump has going for him is he has very good instincts. we've seen that. look, we went through an incredible year in our primary and unlike anything anyone has been through, lots of drama, and 12 debates and -- and at every one of these debates, as everyone and the pundits said this is the day that maybe donald trump isn't -- and every time he won that debate. >> bret baier, anchor of "special report" joins us now. welcome, bret, first of all. >> gorgeous day. >> it's gorgeous, isn't it. >> yeah. >> this thing is like we're getting to the final episode of "the bachelor" or "apprentice," whatever and the two people left, two best-known people in america and they will match wits tomorrow night. >> that's the question. what donald trump shows up? which hillary clinton s
