veronica daguerre of "the wall street journal" and management. what do you think? >> i think that is a mistake. listen, the overall economy by the numbers looks pretty good but when you sort of drill down how peoole feel, they feel this is kind of a listless economist. i will say this. two races i'm following, massachusetts aboves race, connecticut governors race. if thooe two go to republicans, think about it, that is the heart of liberalism. massachusetts and connecticut. you have got to think that louisiana, easily reeublicans. you got to think the kansas race, pat roberts is kind after tired incumbent, he wins. got to think a big day tomorrow for republicans. that will be good for the markets. melissa: you mentioned the economic conditions out there. if you look at the latest "fox news poll," 47% of espondents think the economy is only fair. 33% think it is poor. dan shaffer, what do you think? >> it is poor. rank-and-file out there are hurting very badly. food stamp programs. people don't have enough money to pay their bills. logic with gas prices going down,

here to discuss, veronica daguerre of "wall street journal" and dan shaffer of shaffer asset managementronica, what do you think will happen here? >> we'll see what happens. i think the president will veto it if it comes this far. good to see it comes this far. political motivations makes folks cynical this bill has been sitting there for six years and finally there is interest on the democratic side. we'll see what happens. but i think it will be good. if it does pass because of all the jobs that will be created. melissa: what do you think about that? if it makes it way the president and he vetoes it. >> this is sir circus that motivates democrats to push republicans now. now comes up after the election when the republicans both of the house and senate and so it is just a political game of moving the dice around to take the bets, to make certain people look good. this doesn't stop. melissa: sort of a hail mary for, mary landrieu. this might not help her runoff. melissa: it is harder because gas prices fallen so much at the pump. people are not in as much pain. timing hasn't changed so
