I’ve been gagging down Chris Matthews this evening. He’s been on since 6:00 PM eastern. He has had both Paul Manafort and Ann Coulter plus a bunch of other Republican folks.

One thing stands out, especially with Paul Manafort…Trump is going to get nasty. Real nasty. He more or less said it.

Robert Costa was on and they showed a video of Hillary addressing the nation about Benghazi and blaming it on the video, then the mothers, and family members of the Benghazi victims talking about Hillary blaming the video and ending with Hillary laughing at the Benghazi hearing while the female member that asked the question she laughed at heard in the background saying “I don’t think this is funny” as the spot closes. Costa said they have many such spots prepared.

Manafort was doing a little arrogant laughing and saying you just wait…Donald is very media savvy and no one has run a campaign like he will.

We know the Clintons can get a bit muddy themselves. What will be key is if they go down that road against Trump or they let there be a big a big contrast between them.

If the Clintons get nasty this could be a real mud slinging contest.
