Speaker 1: It's night's size, Dan Ray, I'm going crazy Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2: So it's a little after eleven o'clock. It's eleven oh eight,
Speaker 2: eleven oh seven, eleven oh eight, and two weeks from
Speaker 2: tonight at this hour, the polls will be closing in
Speaker 2: California on the West coast. So the race could be tight,
Speaker 2: or it could not be tied, of whatever. But it's
Speaker 2: conceivable that two weeks from right now we might know
Speaker 2: who the forty seventh President of the United States is.
Speaker 2: So we're doing sort of a state of the race
Speaker 2: two weeks out tonight. I'll remind you that on Friday
Speaker 2: night we will do our final night side snap pole
Speaker 2: at eleven o'clock. That's this Friday night, because it's the
Speaker 2: last Friday in October. I've done that in April May,
Speaker 2: actually March, March, April, May, June, July, August, September. This
Speaker 2: would be our eighth snap pole, and we'll have to
Speaker 2: see the last one. We had Trump with fourteen. Now
Speaker 2: again ours is a national audience, but it was Trump
Speaker 2: with fourteen, Harris with ten. So let's see what might
Speaker 2: happen in the last one. That's a Friday night at
Speaker 2: eleven o'clock. I will be off on Thursday night, but
Speaker 2: more White sitting in for me, and then I'll be
Speaker 2: back on Friday. That's the one night this month that
Speaker 2: I will be off for a personal reason. That is,
Speaker 2: you know, very very normal reason. No big deal. Let's
Speaker 2: go now to Dave and Danvers. Dave, I hope we're
Speaker 2: squared away here. Good evening. You're next on night side.
Speaker 3: Dan.
Speaker 4: Are you there?
Speaker 2: I'm here, Dave, Yes, I am. I hope you're there too.
Speaker 4: Go right ahead, Okay, I'm here.
Speaker 5: Brother.
Speaker 4: First and foremost, I just want to thank you and
Speaker 4: your show and what you do and how you talk
Speaker 4: about all these issues that go around us. The presidential
Speaker 4: election Massachusetts, in my eye, unless you're not Jesus Christ
Speaker 4: as a Republican, you're not going to get elected.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: There there have been exceptions, Charlie Charlie Baker being the
Speaker 2: most recent. Scott Brown got elected to the Senate. So yeah,
Speaker 2: there there are some exceptions in there, but we are
Speaker 2: a pretty much a one party state. I would agree
Speaker 2: with you on that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know, as far as you know the
Speaker 4: issues in the country, all this and that my biggest thing,
Speaker 4: My theory is that the abortion issue with the reprobagance
Speaker 4: is huge because it would be a no win, No,
Speaker 4: they'd win. I just don't know what to say.
Speaker 5: I mean there, well, I.
Speaker 2: Think that I think that the abortion issue is an
Speaker 2: important issue to a lot of people and for them
Speaker 2: that is the despot positive issue of this campaign. There
Speaker 2: they will be, uh, they're gonna know for whom abortion
Speaker 2: is first and foremost, they will vote for Kamala Harris.
Speaker 2: There are other you.
Speaker 4: Know, it's it's the right of a woman. You know,
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. It's not what their choice is,
Speaker 4: what their choice is, but it's it's it's the right
Speaker 4: of a woman right.
Speaker 2: But what I'm saying, irrespective of what your position on
Speaker 2: it is, I think people need to recognize that to people,
Speaker 2: whether it's men or women, for whom that issue is
Speaker 2: the most important issue, they are likely to vote for
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris. But there are other issues that that other people.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know who's going to win this election.
Speaker 2: I don't have I don't have a sense of it.
Speaker 2: I look at all of these polls and one day
Speaker 2: you look.
Speaker 4: At the well, you know, you know, Unfortunately, what I
Speaker 4: look at is world War three?
Speaker 2: You need some You're on family radio, so I'd ask
Speaker 2: you to just leave it, leave that that part of
Speaker 2: the conversation. So I'm going to tell you right now
Speaker 2: you're a Trump voter.
Speaker 4: I'm actually independent.
Speaker 2: You're an independent, but you're going to vote for Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: Did you vote for Trump at twenty twenty?
Speaker 4: I voted to Trump in twenty twenty, But do.
Speaker 2: You vote for Trump in twenty six did you vote
Speaker 2: for Trump at twenty sixteen?
Speaker 4: Both times?
Speaker 2: Okay? And you're going to vote from now because you
Speaker 2: just told me the most important issue to you is
Speaker 2: World War three. And that's an issue that Donald Trump
Speaker 2: runs on. He talks about that if he gets in there,
Speaker 2: he'll get putin to sit down and all of that,
Speaker 2: whether you believe it or not. If that's the issue
Speaker 2: that resonates with you, you're an independent. But have you
Speaker 2: decided who you're going to vote for? Or am I
Speaker 2: telling you who you're going to vote for?
Speaker 5: Well, you know something, Dan, I listened to you all
Speaker 5: the time.
Speaker 2: Thank you.

Speaker 4: politics right now, it's what's going on in the world.
Speaker 4: Maybe Israel all Ad, I'm like, are you kidding me?
Speaker 4: Somebody we need to stand up and say, you know something,
Speaker 4: this cannot happen. We are not going on what happened?
Speaker 2: Yeah, world War three? World War three would be a
Speaker 2: down and there's no doubt about that.
Speaker 7: Dave.
Speaker 2: I don't think they'd be I don't think they'd be

Speaker 2: you feel.
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: Are you looking forward to be over? Are you? Are
Speaker 2: you going to be relieved? I have some feelings and
Speaker 2: one of my feelings is I hope it's a decisive race,
Speaker 2: meaning I hope it's not you know, forty nine point
Speaker 2: seven to forty nine point six. I hope it's decisive
Speaker 2: because I think we we need a decisive race. We
Speaker 2: I don't want us to see I don't want any
Speaker 2: of us Democrat or republic Republican to go through what
Speaker 2: this country went through in twenty twenty. And I just
Speaker 2: I just would like to see a clear winner, so
Speaker 2: everybody can get up the next day or two days
Speaker 2: later and say, Okay, my candidate won, my candidate lost.
Speaker 2: I'm satisfied with the result either way. Is that too
Speaker 2: much to ask? Six one seven, four ten thirty six
Speaker 2: one seven, nine three ten thirty. If you agree with
Speaker 2: me on that, I'd love to hear from you. If
Speaker 2: you disagree with me, tell me why. Back on Nights
Speaker 2: Out after.
Speaker 1: This now, back to Dan ray Line from the Window
Speaker 1: World Nights Side Studios on WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 2: One of my listeners says, you're not talking enough politics.
Speaker 2: You gotta talk politics. Okay, I'm you know, we're not
Speaker 2: going to talk politics every night, every hour, but you're
Speaker 2: gonna get a little dose of it tonight. Let's go
Speaker 2: to DOT and Medford Dot. What do you think of
Speaker 2: the state of the race.
Speaker 8: Why, You've had a wonderful program as usual, And well,
Speaker 8: of course I'm with Telsey Gabbett, who is one of
Speaker 8: your favorite people, right, And.
Speaker 2: I've never had tell I think I had Telsea in
Speaker 2: the show once.
Speaker 8: Yes you did.
Speaker 2: I was impressed with her. Love to get her back,
Speaker 2: you know, I wish.
Speaker 9: Should come on again this week. We'll see when and
Speaker 9: when you take the poll on the thirty first, that's Halloween.
Speaker 9: That's my eighty ninth birthday.
Speaker 8: Wow, and let.
Speaker 9: Me tell you, I have a good omen about that.
Speaker 2: By the way, the poll will be taken won't be
Speaker 2: on the thirty first, it's on the last Friday, So
Speaker 2: it's going to be this Friday, which is the twenty fifth.
Speaker 1: Oh well that's okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you can participate. Everybody gets a hall pass
Speaker 2: on Friday night because even though you called early in
Speaker 2: the week, you can you can weigh in on your vote.
Speaker 9: Well, you know you don't. I don't need to tell you,
Speaker 9: but I'm with Telsea all the way. She's done a
Speaker 9: great job for the president, a great job. And I hope,
Speaker 9: I hope everything goes peacefully and he wins by at
Speaker 9: least twenty percent over the time.
Speaker 2: Well, I don't think. I don't think we're going we're
Speaker 2: going to see a sixty forty.
Speaker 9: Vote, although well let's let's hope.
Speaker 5: Let's know.
Speaker 2: What I'm saying is I think that, however it can.
Speaker 9: Be, you've got to you've got to pass the word
Speaker 9: about the chance of heaven. The Democratic Vice president as
Speaker 9: president is the most absolutely obscene idea. I mean, why
Speaker 9: she ever picked him? He's a lunatic.
Speaker 2: Well, the theory is. The theory is that Harris was
Speaker 2: concerned that if she picked Shapiro, who happens to be
Speaker 2: Jewish and.
Speaker 9: Very very confident people, she could have picked.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, But what I'm saying is that that
Speaker 2: Pennsylvania would have been the smarter pick. But she was
Speaker 2: concerned that I think some of the squad members and
Speaker 2: some of the very progressives in the Democratic Party might
Speaker 2: have jumped ship or just stayed home, so that she
Speaker 2: might have picked up let's say, Pennsylvania with that, but
Speaker 2: she might have lost Michigan at least.
Speaker 9: That was the theory of that ticket head in the country.
Speaker 9: Is the scariest thought I could think of it is
Speaker 9: just awful. And let's hope the Trump Vince ticket goes
Speaker 9: in by at least twelve percent.
Speaker 2: Well, if you ever had that that no, no, no,
Speaker 2: if you had a twelve percent of fifty six to
Speaker 2: forty four percent, that would be what's on modern day landslide.
Speaker 2: Because all all of these elections going back, oh you
Speaker 2: know now a few decades have been very close. The
Speaker 2: only one that was really well, Ronald Reagan won very
Speaker 2: handily both in eighty and eighty four. He won very
Speaker 2: handily in eighty four. He only lost Minnesota in the
Speaker 2: district of Columbia.
Speaker 7: But look at the go look at the go vote.
Speaker 9: I mean that was that was very awful. A Supreme
Speaker 9: Court had to decide that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well it was five It was a difference of
Speaker 2: five hundred and twenty seven votes. Anyway, Dot Love you
Speaker 2: call Happy Birthday, But I'll talk to you on Friday,
Speaker 2: maybe right.
Speaker 8: Dear takes bad Brew.
Speaker 2: Has just lost a shout out tonight to the Nashville
Speaker 2: Predators for Zip last to go. Well, at least one
Speaker 2: of the one of the goals was an empty night.
Speaker 2: I think the man had a couple of empty netters,
Speaker 2: bruins off to a bit of a slow start and
Speaker 2: a little bit of I guess disagreement between the coach
Speaker 2: and the captain you read about in the papers tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Let me go into Warren and Fall River Warren, Welcome
Speaker 2: back to Night's side.
Speaker 5: How are you, sir, Hey, hey, Dan. Yeah, I absolutely
Speaker 5: hate polling. I absolutely think the polls. I think there
Speaker 5: should be no polling whatsoever, because it influences the vote.
Speaker 5: Is it totally influences how one one sees things and
Speaker 5: how how they're going to vote.
Speaker 3: And like on election night there should be a blackout
Speaker 3: because like just really you know, like if you're in
Speaker 3: California or if you're like in Hawaii something that by
Speaker 3: the time your polls closed, you basically already know who's winning.
Speaker 2: Well, that's true. And by the way, in nineteen eighty
Speaker 2: you may remember this, or you may be too young
Speaker 2: to remember this, but in nineteen eighty President Carter conceded
Speaker 2: very early in the night, he conceded about nine thirty
Speaker 2: of my memory.
Speaker 3: Sir, oh, yeah, because you know that was a landslide.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but but but, but but what happened was a
Speaker 2: lot of Democrats congressional candidates in California were very upset
Speaker 2: because what that meant was people who were going to
Speaker 2: vote Laide in California felt, what's the what's the use
Speaker 2: the president Carter has has conceded, and that might have
Speaker 2: cost the Democrats a couple of house races in California.
Speaker 2: And I think, I don't think it'll be an early night.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think Carter tea night.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I would I would just have it so
Speaker 3: did a blackout and then we don't find the results
Speaker 3: of the election until say Thursday.
Speaker 2: Lauren, I don't know that. I just got to tell
Speaker 2: you that I know that your your spirit is a
Speaker 2: positive and but that's never going to happen.
Speaker 5: That's I understand.
Speaker 2: But it's like, that's like saying that. They're like, that's
Speaker 2: like saying the seventh game of the World Series between
Speaker 2: let's say the Dodgers and Yankees go to the seventh game,
Speaker 2: that that because everybody can't watch the game at the
Speaker 2: same time, you know, some people work and all of that.
Speaker 2: That in fairness to sports fans, the game will be
Speaker 2: played and then the game will be will be replayed
Speaker 2: on television two days later.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but just kind of I'm just I'm just saying,
Speaker 3: get rid of the influence, out of like how the
Speaker 3: polls that influence. Yeah, totally out of the game. It
Speaker 3: just how be how people actually think and actually vote
Speaker 3: according to the candidate and what they like and what
Speaker 3: they don't like about a candidate.
Speaker 2: And that's it, all right, Let's see if people react.
Speaker 2: Let's see if people react to that suggestion. I actually
Speaker 2: wrote a piece in the Boston Globe many years ago
Speaker 2: suggesting something similar. My concern was the early polls, meaning
Speaker 2: that let's say, on a on a Senate race or
Speaker 2: congressional race, that they were doing polls in February or March,
Speaker 2: and that they would be somebody who had, you know,
Speaker 2: enough money to get an early lead. It would then
Speaker 2: discourage other candidates from getting in. So I understand, I
Speaker 2: understand your instinct. But let's see what I just have
Speaker 2: to say. Fair enough, fair enough, Thanks, Thanks Warren. It's
Speaker 2: always talked about.
Speaker 6: Thanks.
Speaker 2: Very interesting proposal. Let's go next to David on the
Speaker 2: South Shore. David, don't know if you want to react
Speaker 2: to what Warren had to say, but feel free if
Speaker 2: you'd like to.
Speaker 6: Uh, no, I don't think so, Thank you anyway, No problem,
Speaker 6: thank you, No I'm a long time listener, kind of
Speaker 6: well on and off. But there's never a solution here, Dan,
Speaker 6: You never have a You present a problem that always
Speaker 6: produces some kind of frustration, anger, fear, but never a solution.
Speaker 6: Just just applies to other talk shows too. I don't know,
Speaker 6: have you noticed that before?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 2: Well, i'd like I'd like you to expand on it
Speaker 2: so I can learn from you a little bit. Sore
Speaker 2: we tonight. I'm simply here's what I'm doing tonight, and
Speaker 2: maybe I haven't made it clear to you, but let's see.
Speaker 2: What I'm saying tonight is a couple of things I'm saying.
Speaker 2: I'd love to know what people think the state of
Speaker 2: the race is. We're two weeks out. It's kind of
Speaker 2: one of those nights where we're in we're in the
Speaker 2: final sprint, so we haven't really talked about the race
Speaker 2: for a few nights, and I thought, okay, let's let's
Speaker 2: talk about it. And then the other thing that I
Speaker 2: have thrown out is I truly do hope that whoever
Speaker 2: wins next month November sixth, or November fifth, sixth or seventh,
Speaker 2: or whatever, I hope it's a decisive victory because I
Speaker 2: don't know the country will be able to successfully go
Speaker 2: through another traumatic experience where it's one tenth of one
Speaker 2: percent that decides the race. So if you think that
Speaker 2: those are negative ideas, tell me.
Speaker 6: Why, Well, No, while I was holding I was thinking
Speaker 6: another thought. My purpose in code was to ask you
Speaker 6: what meaning the polls have number one and what meaning
Speaker 6: my vote will have? If they have just announced this
Speaker 6: morning or less yesterday, then the results of the election
Speaker 6: will not be available for four five days after the election.
Speaker 6: Isn't this tell you that it's the start of the fixture?
Speaker 2: Well, first, first of all, I don't buy that theory, okay,
Speaker 2: because when let's assume that early in the night and
Speaker 2: early at night on an election night means by let's say,
Speaker 2: you know, ten thirty, that's early because the polls.
Speaker 6: Well ten thirty. Coincidentally, it was ten thirty when they
Speaker 6: announced they're going to stop the counters. Why because they're
Speaker 6: too tired.
Speaker 2: Again, I understand, I understand clearly where you're coming from, okay,
Speaker 2: And what I'm saying is I'm actually hoping, hoping that
Speaker 2: we end up with a decisive election, and that the
Speaker 2: election if, for example, we come down to Let's say
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, Nevada and Arizona look like Trump's
Speaker 2: gonna win, And let's assume that Wisconsin, uh And and
Speaker 2: Georgia look like Harris is gonna win. And it comes
Speaker 2: down to like say, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and pick another state,
Speaker 2: whatever state you want. And if let us say either
Speaker 2: of the candidates won those two states, which everybody knew
Speaker 2: was going to decide, it's possible. I don't see where
Speaker 2: they come down with the idea. I mean, we can
Speaker 2: call Massachusetts right now. I'll make the call right now,
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris carries Massachusetts with it's it's eleven electoral votes.
Speaker 2: You know that as well as I do. You you
Speaker 2: don't really need I mean, you got to run an election,
Speaker 2: But do you know that that Massa is gonna at
Speaker 2: the top of the ticket. There's other races that are important,
Speaker 2: but there's no way Donald Trump is gonna win Massachusetts.
Speaker 2: And you know that, and I know that. And this
Speaker 2: no way that Harris is going to win Wyoming, South
Speaker 2: Dakota in a lot of those states. And it's going
Speaker 2: to come down to a few states. And then the
Speaker 2: question is how close is it? Is it really close
Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania again, or does it break one way or
Speaker 2: the other. Let's see. I'm enough of an optimist to
Speaker 2: think that there's still enough people in this country who
Speaker 2: want to believe in the elections. Do you remember the
Speaker 2: old days when there'd be an election and everybody would
Speaker 2: wake up the next day and say, yeah, Reagan did win,
Speaker 2: he won all forty nine states, or yeah, Jimmy Carter
Speaker 2: did win, he'd beat Gerald Ford and we moved on.
Speaker 2: I'd like to get back to that point where we're
Speaker 2: not going to hate each other over Thanksgiving dinner. That's
Speaker 2: all I'm saying.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, this business are four or five days after
Speaker 6: I never have you ever heard of that in any
Speaker 6: other country in the world, no matter how far they
Speaker 6: are in the toilet the country. Have you ever heard
Speaker 6: of that before?
Speaker 2: No? But on the on the flip side to that
Speaker 2: argument is when Russia or North Korea has an election,
Speaker 2: they can announce the final number. Lead me a putent
Speaker 2: one with a ninety seven point four percent of the vote.
Speaker 2: You know it doesn't matter. Democracy can be messy. Let's
Speaker 2: see what happens, okay.
Speaker 6: Right, But also one more point, I'm taking a long time,
Speaker 6: just one more point, yeah, although sad is the fact
Speaker 6: that uh uh, I don't. I know, I'm not supposed
Speaker 6: to name call or say things are be critical that way.
Speaker 6: But why would any individual There was a previous caller
Speaker 6: who asked about asking why are you voting for so
Speaker 6: and so? Why are you voting this?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Why would anyone? Uh? Having looked at the Fox interview
Speaker 6: and other interviews, I can't get a word a meaning
Speaker 6: out of anything she says. I mean, what are her policies?
Speaker 6: She seems so.
Speaker 2: Look day, you know as well as I do that
Speaker 2: forty percent of the country of the country will always
Speaker 2: vote for the Republican candidate, and forty country will always
Speaker 2: vote to the Democratic candidate. And we're we're we're kind
Speaker 2: of a fifty to fifty country. That's why people it's
Speaker 2: kind of like, you know, people say, how can someone
Speaker 2: root for the Yankees? I mean, they pay those players
Speaker 2: so much money, they buy the pennant and now they're
Speaker 2: going to buy the World Series. I'm a Red Sox fan.
Speaker 2: You know it's it's it's just you got to accept it,
Speaker 2: and you got to say yes what you got to
Speaker 2: live with those people? You could you might be married.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're married or not, but you
Speaker 2: could be married to someone who's going to take your
Speaker 2: negate your vote. Obviously you're a Trump voter. I mean,
Speaker 2: what would you do if your wife vote tells you
Speaker 2: she's going to vote for Harrys, You going to divorce her?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: No, no, come on, baby, I gotta go.
Speaker 1: It's Night Side with on w Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2: So we're talking about the state of the race two
Speaker 2: weeks out. It's as simple as that. I just thought
Speaker 2: that tonight might be a night to do that. We've
Speaker 2: had some interesting reaction. No one so far as sort
Speaker 2: of answered the question, are you for your candidate? Do
Speaker 2: you feel that that your candidate's in good position? I
Speaker 2: don't know. I'd love to know what you say. Gregory
Speaker 2: Gregory is in Dorchester. Gregory, welcome back. How are you, sir?
Speaker 7: Hi Jan, thanks for saying with caller.
Speaker 2: I'm very welcome.
Speaker 7: Greg The commercials are brutal. But the only thing I
Speaker 7: cannot understand about the Democrats Donald Trumps a convicted fellery
Speaker 7: and they haven't heard any any commercial with that. I'm surprised.
Speaker 7: I'm full of surprise because if the shoe was on
Speaker 7: the other side, there were they would there were probably
Speaker 7: would be blasting them more than that, you know what
Speaker 7: I mean.
Speaker 2: So so you're you're I don't does does that commercial?
Speaker 2: Are you comfortable with that commercial? Or does that commercial
Speaker 2: offend you?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 7: No, it's the truth. I mean, okay, it's the truth.
Speaker 2: So they can Again, these are public figures, These are
Speaker 2: tough races. Uh uh. And and you know Trump says
Speaker 2: some things about her and she says some things about him.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well she's gonna conviction phalun is.
Speaker 2: That I said that? And I'm sure that people if
Speaker 2: that's the reason why someone's going to vote either for
Speaker 2: or against Donald Trump. If your focus is on the
Speaker 2: fact he's a convict felon, you're going to vote for Harris.
Speaker 2: If your focus is on some of the issues that
Speaker 2: he's running on, you might forget the fact that he's
Speaker 2: a convicted felon and vote for Trump.
Speaker 7: I don't know. He said something yesterday about I can't
Speaker 7: even repeat it on the radio.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's comment about Arnold Palmer.
Speaker 7: Yeah, terrible.
Speaker 2: I mean again, you know that's that's the sort of
Speaker 2: thing that you know, people joke about or whatever. And yeah,
Speaker 2: you're right, You're right. But again, look, with all of this,
Speaker 2: with all of this that he's had, you you've listened
Speaker 2: to some of my callers who are going to vote
Speaker 2: for Donald Trump no matter what. Okay, And that's where
Speaker 2: we are as a country right now. We're fifty to fifty.
Speaker 2: I hope that it's a decisive victory.
Speaker 7: For h And I hope so too, because Trump already
Speaker 7: has said that, Yeah, I have so many, so many
Speaker 7: a ternitists now ready to ready to do anything, you know,
Speaker 7: So he'sation.
Speaker 2: Both both of these candidates will be very well. This
Speaker 2: will be the election of twenty twenty four, will be
Speaker 2: the Attorney Employment Act, They'll they'll there'll be all sorts
Speaker 2: of court actions. Again, depending if it's very very close,
Speaker 2: they'll be they'll be uh, you know, law cases, you know,
Speaker 2: well into well into November, maybe past Thanksgiving. If on
Speaker 2: the other hand, it's it's a definitive election, which we
Speaker 2: haven't had one in a while, maybe.
Speaker 7: I think I think Michigan have to do if if
Speaker 7: if coming, if she can carry Michigan, I think she
Speaker 7: will get shot.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I think Michigan, like like before, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania,
Speaker 2: those are the that that's the blue Wall, and Harris
Speaker 2: has to defend that and hope that she can pick
Speaker 2: up something else. If she can defend that, I think
Speaker 2: she's she's in pretty good shape. But you know, we'll
Speaker 2: we'll see. So are you glad it's almost over?
Speaker 6: Or right?
Speaker 7: But Hampshire between between Kelly and the Craig up there,
Speaker 7: that's the type phrases.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean Kelly at Kelly has the advantage
Speaker 2: of having been a United States Senator. Uh Craig, the
Speaker 2: mayor of Manchester has the advantage of being the the
Speaker 2: the the chief executive of New Hampshire's largest city.
Speaker 7: But commercial Kelly gets.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you Chris Christ who delivered. I watched
Speaker 2: his commercial and I happen to like Christ as as
Speaker 2: you know, he's a friend. But I thought he did
Speaker 2: a great job in terms of he seemed to speak
Speaker 2: from the heart. I don't know if he's reading from
Speaker 2: a teleprompter, but he he delivered big time for Kelly ad.
Speaker 7: And if she does, she owes him remember her father
Speaker 7: father of us or program.
Speaker 2: Old b oh yeah if if George people forget George
Speaker 2: Bush had lost Iowa the Republican primary in Iowa in
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty eight to Bob Dole and Bush limped into
Speaker 2: New Hampshire and snun who basically turned it around in
Speaker 2: a week and Bush won New Hampshire and he was
Speaker 2: onto the Republican nomination.
Speaker 7: Bob do get out of you your cave?
Speaker 5: I remember, well, yeah.
Speaker 2: I miss well what did Dole say?
Speaker 3: Huh?
Speaker 2: I missed what you said? Greg? What did Dole say?
Speaker 7: You just came out of your cave?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, all right, all right, Greg, we'll talk soon.
Speaker 2: Thank you, my friend, We'll treat Thanks for calling Ron
Speaker 2: and some waymouth Ron, you were next on. Nice ahead, Ron.
Speaker 10: Yeah, this is a very blunt independent voter here, and
Speaker 10: I am blunt and right to the point. You know
Speaker 10: that I don't believe in any of the polls. I
Speaker 10: don't believe in polls. I believe in the US census
Speaker 10: before I believe in the polls. I think they're nothing
Speaker 10: but bs. Okay, And and I think it's going to
Speaker 10: be a lopsided vote. I don't think it's going to
Speaker 10: be what people think it is, which will mean it
Speaker 10: will be a decisive vote. And I think the gentleman
Speaker 10: called earlier about all over the world, they you know,
Speaker 10: they get the votes in early he's a little off there.
Speaker 10: He's in the right track, though he's in the you know,
Speaker 10: the right church, but the wrong pew. All the democratic
Speaker 10: nations of the world always have all the votes and
Speaker 10: before the next day, and if they do, if this
Speaker 10: happens again where there's a starling one two or three
Speaker 10: days after it, they need to stop all voting and
Speaker 10: they need to go in with the what what precincts
Speaker 10: and those areas in question and investigate immediately. We won't
Speaker 10: we won't continue on. We won't be able to continue
Speaker 10: on the right way. So I think it's put in
Speaker 10: in a capsule here, nutshell. I think it's going to
Speaker 10: be a lopsided out. I don't think it's I think
Speaker 10: it's going to be a decisive vote, and I hope
Speaker 10: it is. And I voted already in early voting, and
Speaker 10: I heard what people are saying that they're voting, and
Speaker 10: they they're very decisive of who they're voting for. And
Speaker 10: I'm not going to say any more than that, because
Speaker 10: I don't want to influence anybody in voting. But you
Speaker 10: need a vote for the person you want, not the party.
Speaker 10: But unfortunately these people represent parties. So you know, it's
Speaker 10: kind of complicated, but it really isn't complicated. I think
Speaker 10: we're just making it complicated.
Speaker 2: All right, Ron, you said it directly to the point.
Speaker 2: Appreciate it as always. Okay, thanks, Thanks, talk to you
Speaker 2: about that. We'll take quick break six one, seven thirty,
Speaker 2: triple eight nine to nine, ten thirty. We're coming right back.
Speaker 2: I've got Matt, Dave and Terry. I'll get some room
Speaker 2: for you on either six one seven, two, five, four
Speaker 2: ten thirty or six one seven nine. So now opportunity
Speaker 2: to chat a little bit about politics. Okay, we uh
Speaker 2: we certainly in the next couple of weeks will get
Speaker 2: back to this periodically, but again, I'm just giving you
Speaker 2: a chance tonight to tell me what you think of
Speaker 2: the state of the race two weeks out back after this.
Speaker 1: Now back to Dan Ray Mine from the Window World
Speaker 1: Nightside Studios on w.
Speaker 2: B Z the news radio. Kip Roll. He're going to
Speaker 2: go to Matt and Brighton. Matt, you are next on Nightside.
Speaker 2: Go ahead, Matt, hold on, Put Matt on hold for you. Yeah, Matt,
Speaker 2: don't do that to me, will you please? Hold on?
Speaker 2: Doesn't really work? You're back quick, go ahead.
Speaker 11: Oh no, I said, how you doing, I'm doing fun?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 5: Hey yeah yeah. Look on the honor of Palmer comment
Speaker 5: and stuff like that. I think this election is set
Speaker 5: as is.
Speaker 11: I think that Donald Trumps the biggest foe is going
Speaker 11: to be the electoral college. As I've said many times
Speaker 11: in my cause before, I worry about states like Arizona.
Speaker 5: But if you look at people have said before by
Speaker 5: the Soma.
Speaker 11: Palmer comment, which he was a man's man, people respected
Speaker 11: him in the locker room stuff like that, this is
Speaker 11: not going on.
Speaker 2: That wasn't what he was talking about. Man, Come on,
Speaker 2: that's what he was talking about.
Speaker 11: I mean, come on, but his daughter is not back
Speaker 11: in a little bit of alick done. Our daughter denounced
Speaker 11: the comment.
Speaker 2: But is what's called an unforced error. I mean, he
Speaker 2: wasn't saying Arnold Palmer was a great golfer and in
Speaker 2: the locker room they really respected Arnold because no matter
Speaker 2: whether he won or lost, he was a gentleman and
Speaker 2: all that.
Speaker 11: No, he was, he didn't say that, but he said
Speaker 11: he's a man's man.
Speaker 2: Man, come on, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna further it.
Speaker 2: But we he were talking, he was talking about uh,
Speaker 2: a characterization of physical description, you know what I'm talking about? No, Yeah,
Speaker 2: and and and his daughters. His daughters were offended by it.
Speaker 2: And so do you really need Arnold Palmer's daughters coming
Speaker 2: out and saying, Hey, leave our dad out of this.
Speaker 2: I don't think that's a plus frame. I don't think
Speaker 2: a lot of people will say, well, great, he upset
Speaker 2: Arnold Palmer's daughters. I don't know. I mean maybe that's.
Speaker 1: At the election.
Speaker 11: That's just my my sentiment.
Speaker 2: And I'm just no, I don't think it's going to
Speaker 2: cost him the election. I agree with it's not going
Speaker 2: to cost him the election. But I think it's not
Speaker 2: something that that that he should have.
Speaker 5: It was.
Speaker 2: It was an unnecessary error.
Speaker 11: Right, I mean all the time, these stupid gaffs, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I call it unforced error. I know that you're
Speaker 2: a baseball guy. I'm talking to you. Unforced error. Well,
Speaker 2: you got a shot. All you gotta do is, you know,
Speaker 2: just hit one to the baseline to your opponent's backhand,
Speaker 2: and you're drilling into the net.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 11: Well, I think it's a land with this, Dan. I
Speaker 11: think it's gonna be I think Trump does have it,
Speaker 11: but I think it's gonna be very tight with the
Speaker 11: electoral College and Arizona, which is gone but the Biden
Speaker 11: last time. But it's gonna be very It's gonna be
Speaker 11: states like that is that people have said before the wyomings.
Speaker 2: Right now, according to the recent poll updates, according to
Speaker 2: five thirty eight, Trump is a couple of points up
Speaker 2: in Arizona.
Speaker 10: So just let's just hope.
Speaker 1: Let's just hear that in mind.
Speaker 5: God bless that's real.
Speaker 11: God bless what everything that's going on.
Speaker 2: Bless Israel. There's no doubt about that. Okay, thank you, though,
Speaker 2: talk to you good night. Gonna go to Terry down
Speaker 2: to the Cape Terry. You're next Night's.
Speaker 12: Hi, Dan? How are you think from a different perspective
Speaker 12: for you?
Speaker 7: Dan?
Speaker 12: And I'm not looking at the polls because I'm not
Speaker 12: one that does that, But I am looking at two
Speaker 12: different things. Number One campaign contributions. For the first time
Speaker 12: in history, Kamara Harris for July, August and September has
Speaker 12: she received more than one billion dollars with a bee
Speaker 12: never has happened before. And in that same time frame,
Speaker 12: her opponent has received a little more than three hundred millions,
Speaker 12: huge disparity right there, and I believe that that points
Speaker 12: to a major, decisive victory. And number two my other
Speaker 12: thought process. I happen to be at Shaw Market on
Speaker 12: Sunday and I looked at all the front pages of
Speaker 12: all the newspapers that they had, and all of them
Speaker 12: on the front page talked about how the Republicans have
Speaker 12: already filed lawsuits in fifteen states regarding the outcome of
Speaker 12: the twenty twenty four election that none of us know
Speaker 12: outcome yet, but I personally believe that it's a huge
Speaker 12: sign of desperation because they see the writing on the wall.
Speaker 2: Well, Terry, you got to if the results turn out
Speaker 2: the way that you're predicting, with the specificity particularly that
Speaker 2: you're utilizing, feel free to join the conversation the next night.
Speaker 2: We're not going to take phone calls. We'll have guests
Speaker 2: on night side. On election night, we'll have a lot
Speaker 2: of election coverage and we'll be following all of the
Speaker 2: polling and the results. Now, the bulls will be mute
Speaker 2: at that point, moot at that point, and we're talking about,
Speaker 2: you know, final decisions. So I want you to call
Speaker 2: back and take a victory lap.
Speaker 12: Okay, and I've already voted, and I'll tell you it
Speaker 12: feels wonderful because it's all room for me. Yeah, it's
Speaker 12: waiting to hear the final result. And it's a lovely killer,
Speaker 12: we'll tell you. And I hope everybody else votes as well,
Speaker 12: the person of their choice.
Speaker 2: I hope everybody has an opportunity to vote, and anyone
Speaker 2: who takes the opportunity fine. And if people are not
Speaker 2: interested enough to vote, shame on them, because they shouldn't
Speaker 2: then complain. You got it all right, I agree with you.
Speaker 12: Man. Have a great night. Bye bye now, Jerry, talk
Speaker 12: to you soon.
Speaker 2: Good night. Let me go to Dave in San Antonio, Texas.
Speaker 2: We might get a different a different analysis from mister Dave. Hey, Dave,
Speaker 2: welcome you will in the court.
Speaker 5: But the reason they're in the court is they're trying
Speaker 5: to keep these illegal immigrants from registering and everybody's keeping
Speaker 5: track of them.
Speaker 7: There.
Speaker 5: They're teaching trap of these fools because they know Biden
Speaker 5: brought them in here to vote for them. So that's
Speaker 5: most of what the courtroom hearings are about, is keeping
Speaker 5: illegals out of this I think rooms hearings.
Speaker 2: I know that in Virginia there's a there's a rule
Speaker 2: that says that if people when they go to get
Speaker 2: their driver's license, if they claim, if they don't claim
Speaker 2: that they're an American citizen, and why anybody would say,
Speaker 2: AM an American citizen. But if they claim that they're
Speaker 2: not an American citizen and they still get a driver's license,
Speaker 2: they then cannot go to the polls uh and and
Speaker 2: register to vote. So all of this. Each state's a
Speaker 2: little different, and yeah, there's going to be a lot
Speaker 2: of law fare, I suspect in this one. I just
Speaker 2: hope for the sake of the country that we have
Speaker 2: a decisive, a decisive victory for someone of either one
Speaker 2: of these candidates.
Speaker 5: So that we can allay And that's that remark about Palmer.
Speaker 5: I have to admit that I wish you wouldn't have said.
Speaker 2: That it's not the time of the place.
Speaker 7: You know, I.
Speaker 5: Was surprised you said that. That took me aback.
Speaker 2: I just think it's it's not it's not the time.
Speaker 2: The time now is to focus on issues and focus
Speaker 2: on why you would be a better president than your opponent.
Speaker 5: That's allful, good worker for McDonalds.
Speaker 2: Though, Hey, let me tell you something that was pretty smart.
Speaker 2: His public relations people did a good job on that.
Speaker 2: And it's interesting now that Harris who claims she did
Speaker 2: work for that that company. Now she's kind of a
Speaker 2: mine because if she ends up at some McDonald's and
Speaker 2: does the same thing, they're gonna call her a copycat.
Speaker 2: If she doesn't.
Speaker 5: He should menagerial though, because we made a remark that
Speaker 5: only managers would make about their food. He would pick
Speaker 5: it up the fries, he said, no human hands have
Speaker 5: touched these fries's. I remember working at McDonald's when I
Speaker 5: was young, you know, and that was not supposed to
Speaker 5: touch the fries.
Speaker 6: You know what.
Speaker 2: I remember when McDonald's burgers were nineteen cents. That's a
Speaker 2: long time ago. All right, Dave, I'm flat out I
Speaker 2: got you in none of the wire. Thanks for calling
Speaker 2: talk soon. We had done for the night. Everybody. My
Speaker 2: name's Dan Ray. Want to thank both Rob and Dan
