back in the primary campaign when morrissey was battling other republicans. the top issue according to a fox news poll was the opioid crisis and economy. until manchin makes up his mind how he will vote on brett kavanaugh it seems like morrissey will really hammer him over the choice. that's something that we plan to ask morrissey about in a few minutes. >> sandra: from west virginia, thank you. >> bill: kayleigh mcenany. welcome back here. >> i'm doing well. >> bill: specific question about west virginia, the state won by 42 points. why is that much of a toss-up now and why is it that close? >> we need our closer to come in, president trump. we make no amends at the rnc this is a hard year for us, history suggests that. only two times going back to the civil war has the party holding the white house increased their majority. i think in the senate we'll make gains. this kavanaugh nomination process could turn the tide of this race. we had a poll come out from public opinion strategies last week showed that post hearing after viewers watched kavanaugh by 58 to

morrissey expected manchin will vote yes. >> it is all about politics because he's waiting until collinseclare. once that happens he will jump up and vote for brett kavanaugh but he will wait until the votes come in. >> reporter: manchin voted to confirm donald trump's last nominee, neil gorsuch, and if he does this time, morrissey believes he will wait until he knows he won't be the deciding vote. >> you gutless because he's waiting until the final result is determined before he will take a position. >> reporter: democrats have any hope of flipping the upper chamber this year they have to hold seats like this one. in charleston, west virginia, peter doocy, fox news. heather: the 35 days into the midterms. do you think democrats are trying to push the judge cavanagh's confirmation until after the midterms? most of you seem to think that is a big yes. ken on facebook that complete witchhunt, confirm brett kavanaugh. deborah on twitter right absolutely, this whole thing is absurd. daniel and instagram says yes and the line needs to be drawn. no more giving in to these whiners. donald trump

will they drift over to patrick morrissey or maybe find a third party candidate?wonder how this impacts the midterms, is what you're alluding to, and really, was there anything for joe manchin to gain here, if you're a hard core republican, aren't you going to vote with president trump's candidate, patrick morrissey? do you think this really changed the calculus at all for voters in west virginia? >> well, i don't know that it changes the calculus but i think what it might do is it might lead to kind of a slog in the voter process. are democrats really going to want to go out and door knock? or will they want to get off the couch to vote for joe manchin? this is one of the most important things they want from a democrat in the senate, and if he is going to vote for republican nominees to the supreme court, especially such high-wire nominees like judge kavanaugh, they might just stay home on election day. but that being said, it should be pointed out that after susan colin, the republicans, have 50 votes, joe manchin's vote really was ideological in either directio

you can imagine what patrick morrissey might have said had joe manchin decided to vote no.lose/lose situation there no matter how he would vote. manchin is ahead of patrick morrissey in west virginia. but look at some other states, you know? you look at heidi heitkamp from north dakota, she is trailing kevin kramer, the statewide republican congressman there, and she decided to vote no. and it's not just because you're going to vote for brett kavanaugh that the republicans suddenly call off the dogs on these democrats in tight races in republican states this fall. griff: thanks, chad. should anything happen, we will quickly call you. rachel: thank you, chad. senator shelley moor cap toe slamming the gavel advancing kavanaugh to confirmation. the west virginia senator, she joins us next live. nothing says fall like a homecoming football game, so let's promote our fall travel deal on choicehotels.com like this. touchdown. earn a free night when you stay just twice this fall. or, badda book. badda boom. book now at choicehotels.com ♪ ♪ griff: welcome back. some quick headlines
