Kantor's right. Altho understandable how this could confuse, without context and poor sound quality.

Kantor's right. Altho understandable how this could confuse, without context and poor sound quality.
Kantor, after hearing that Bill Clinton was ahead in Indiana, 42-40, says, "It' doesn't matter if we win. Those people are shitting. How would you like to be in the White House right now?

Kantor is referring to the Bush White House where Bill Clinton is leading in Indiana--Dan Quayle's home state.

Listen to the tape and the context--where Carville and Stephanopolous are apparently looking over exit polls--begins 3:54 into the tape. Steph has a paper in his hand and says, "What's this? "Holy Shit!" and Carville says, "What? Are those the new ones?" (exit polls)

4. That's what I have heard over and over from the original footage on my new MacBook Pro
with my earbuds on, eyes open, eyes shut, sound all the way up.

Kantor is talking about the White House reaction to the polls in Indiana and Texas.

6. Yes. Helps a great to understand the context when Steph gets the new exit polls at 3:54 in the tape.

11. That's what it sounds most like to me, too, though it's tough to be sure.
That interpretation is coherent, and seems consistent with that piece of the documentary.

12. Yup!
But don't expect the Liars for Obama to recognize the truth. It's like garlic to a vampire to them.
