| 0:00.0 | My audience knows if you've been following the show for some time that I avoid being overly |
| 0:23.1 | optimistic or pessimistic about any particular election, and I always make clear that no matter |
| 0:29.9 | what the polls tell us today, the only thing we can control is whether we vote and we should |
| 0:36.0 | always vote. In that context, in the last week, there are a bunch of races that are going very |
| 0:44.2 | much the wrong direction. There is what I think can accurately be called a democratic collapse |
| 0:50.8 | happening in many races and a possible red wave rising. Now at the start of the week, I told you |
| 0:56.9 | zooming out the forecasts for the house and Senate have worsened for Democrats and they have |

| 1:46.6 | Charlie Christ, mopping the floor with De Santis who visibly malfunctioned on Monday night. |
| 1:53.1 | We played the clips. We showed you all of it. What at one point was a five six seven point lead |
| 1:59.1 | for De Santis has now swelled to an 11 point average lead for De Santis with as much as a 14 point |
| 2:08.2 | lead in some of these individual polls. This is quickly getting out of reach. Florida quickly |
| 2:14.7 | looking like it will fall to the most extreme elements of the Republican party. |
| 2:19.4 | Or stay in their hands, I think better said. In Georgia, again, talking about the best democratic |
| 2:27.5 | performances this cycle, Stacey Abrams was one of them facing off against incumbent Republican |
