Let me just ask you about all of these national polls have come out, most of them have shown a large lead for Secretary Clinton, there are a couple that have different methodology that have shown a tighter race. Where do you see this race right now? Do you acknowledge that your behind?
KELLYANNE CONWAY:
We are behind. She has some advantages, like $66 million in ad buys just in the month of September, thereby doubling her ad buys from August. Now, most of those ads are negative against Donald Trump, classic politics, personal destruction, cesspool kind of ads. And that she has tremendous advantages.
She has a former president, happens to be her husband, campaigning for her. The current president and First Lady, Vice President, all much more popular than she can hope to be. And she's seen as the incumbent. So our advantage going in when we're behind one, three, four points in some of these swing states that Mitt Romney lost to President Obama, Chuck our advantage is that Donald Trump is just going to continue to take the case directly to the people.
He doesn't expect to be able to cut through the noise or the silence and the way we're treated by some. And so he's taking the case, he's going to visit all of these swing states many times, as is his running mate, Governor Pence. And we feel that with Hillary Clinton under 50 percent in some of these places, even though she has run a very traditional and expensive campaign, that we have a shot of getting those undecided voters that somehow have said, "I know who Hillary Clinton is, I don't want to vote for her, I don't much trust or like her," we need to bring them aboard over the next couple of weeks.

Trump likes to tell us he has $10 Billion, why isn’t he blitzing the airwaves with a smart ad campaign?????
Kellyanne was anwering a question about whether DJT was behind in the national polls. And she said yes.
She then pivoted to the swing states where she says DJT is behind but CLOSE to Hitlery.
She says DJT will be taking his case directly to the people.
The race isn’t “over”, but we are playing “catch up”, if I am interpreting Kellyanne correctly.
Thank you!
