We are about to find out if Kamala Harris' biggest advantage is going to make the winning difference: a subject I cover in depth in my new column in Newsweek today.

He lays out the case for why he not only thinks Harris' advantage is going to make a difference, but why he feels confident that Trump is going to lose. He also explains how Trump has destroyed the party that he believes in and how both Republicans and Democrats might change course after the election. 02:54 The Importance of Ground Game 07:21 Random Factors in Elections 09:19 Republican Party Challenges 18:05 Trump's Campaign Strategy 22:18 Polling and Election Predictions 24:34 The Future of the Republican Party 25:08 Challenges for the Democratic Party 27:39 Concerns About the 2024 Election 31:16 The Importance of Checks and Balances 33:52 The Aftermath of the Election 40:37 Hope for America's Future

Rayla Campbell, Massachusetts Republican nominee for Secretary of State recently said a bunch of sick stuff during her nomination speech, "Well, I don't think it's nice when they're telling your five-year-old that he can go and suck another five-year-old's dick. Do you? This is what they're doing. … And I'm going to give it to you like it is, because that's what's happening in your schools." We'll be playing outrageous Campbell audio and speaking to a reporter, Andrew Quemere, who describes her candidacy this way, "Campbell is part of the anti-LGBT 'groomer' panic and wants to jail teachers and librarians.

Syndicated Youtube host and author Chuck Morse interviews Massachusetts Republican activist Bob Parks.

In an election cycle full of surprises -- and unprecedented dissatisfaction with the major party candidates -- voters got a look at a couple of fresh faces Wednesday night in a town hall event live on CNN. Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson, flanked by his running mate Bill Weld, used the opportunity to introduce himself to voters and slam the existing Washington order. "The two-party system is a two-party dinosaur, and they're about to come in contact with the comet here," Johnson told CNN's Chris Cuomo. Weld, a former Massachusetts Republican governor who once worked in President Ronald Reagan's Justice Department and wanted to serve as an ambassador in the Clinton administration, said "that duopoly down there in Washington is not getting a lot done." "It's almost like the parties exist more for the purpose of slandering each other than they do for having constructive approaches to legislation," Weld said. "We like to think we're going to be the third way." READ: What is Libertarianism? Despite their contempt for the current state of 2016 politics, the libertarians showed positive indifference to the political battles being waged on the campaign trail. When it came to Hillary Clinton attacking Donald Trump's business record or Trump calling Clinton corrupt, Johnson said he would "leave that to others." "I don't think either of us are going to engage in any sort of name-calling," Johnson said. "We're going to keep this to the issues, and the issues are plenty." The two had cordial words for Clinton and President Barack Obama, but were quick to voice their differences with Trump. "Starting with immigration, starting with free trade, going on and on and on, killing the families of Muslim terrorists. Really, it's what's coming out of his mouth that I really have issues with," said Johnson, a former two-term governor of New Mexico, of Trump. Weld, who regularly condemns Trump, cast his rhetoric as dangerous.

In the past few weeks, we have interviewed the rising stars in the Massachusetts Republican party. In the wake of Scott Brown’s stunning victory, we are finally starting to see some legitimate competition in this state. There are some really, really good candidates running for Congress this fall, including Jeff Perry in the 10th district, running to replace retiring Bill Delahunt. Jeff is currently a state representative and is one of only two people on Beacon Hill smart and brave enough to vote against Romneycare. How would you like to replace Barney Frank with a Marine officer with a masters in public policy from Harvard and business experience running a $100 million division of iRobot? You can Retire Barney by supporting this man, Sean Bielat Tonight, we met Jon Golnik, a husband, father and small business owner who is running in the 5th district against Nicki Tsongas. Like all the other candidates, he’s upset with the direction of the country and is ready to do something about it. For Massachusetts Republicans, this is an embarrassment of riches. It has been ages since we’ve had so many good candidates running for congress, not to mention governor. The Pundit Review Radio Podcast RSS feed can be found here. What is Pundit Review Radio?
