>> donald trump has to win ohio. he has to win ohio to win. this poll hit big today that cnn has another poll that says the same thing. this is a big deal because if donald trump wins ohio, does not guarantee he will win the white house, gives him a chance. it changes the psychology of the -- of the race and every person i told the result to today gaspe d portion of their head in a meaningful way. if -- if ohio goes to drop it is a big deal and it puts him in a position -- the other argument is that democrats have a ground game in ohio that will make up gaps in the polling but five points is a big deal and in the senate race, the republican in publicis up big polling and that would keep the republican party together. if there down ballot candidates are doing well if trump is doing well. >> let's also say that ohio has elected every person since 1964 and let's qualify it that it was taken friday to monday and hillary clinton is probably -- hillary clinton's probably worst 72 hours with basket of deplorables -- we have to qualify. if you go back

ohio, ohio. why? >> a lot of people know ohio will be closed down, but they know why. hillary clinton and donald trump start with very similar bases. they have similar gotv targets they are trying to get to the polls, and the group of persuadables is very large, it is about 500,000 persuadable voters. and whoever gets the larger share of those will win. obama lost the independent vote in the state of ohio, 10 points and yet he still won because he was able to turn out more of his gotv, but hillary clinton does not have that advantage. if she lost by the same margin in obama did in 2012, she would have to run the ground game of a lifetime. nicolle: the reality is the barrage of messages is for people to do this. most of the target ads are for this. but that is why hillary clinton is spending so much, behind florida. that is the second most state they are spending in. nicolle: ohio, ohio, ohio, my question is, for republicans is, what are you doing in pennsylvania, it is always a giant headache. wh

if ohio goes to trump, it is a huge deal. ohio is ohio. and it puts him in a position -- the other argument is we have a ground game in ohio that will make up gaps in the poll, but five points is a big deal. and in the senate race, the republican incumbent is up big in public polling and that would keep the republican party together. if their down ballot candidates are doing well. that is another big deal because it would keep the republican party down together. donny: i had the same reaction. let's say that every person elected since 1964, and let's also qualify that hillary clinton's probably worst 72 hours with basket of deplorables and cbs had her up by a poll of or seven. we have to qualify. trump?this huge for if you go back to the primaries, trump's club, nobody does winning, other than charlie sheen, better than trump. if you watch the debates, every time somebody would challenge trump on something, he would say, it is because he is in the lead. he has this club, anytime anybody says something, donald trump, you want to build a wal
