Suggesting perhaps subtly, perhaps not so, we will have to watch tonight, that presidents life story is different from that of his opponent, one piece of that. but as you mentioned, with the other speakers, those are other pieces of it. women who are strong professionals, women who care about choice and care about equal pay, those are some other pillars you will see tonight. so, look, i think the conservative women, thats a black that they would concede. professional women, independent, you see ...

So and the notion that youre not going to be held accountable is laughable. republicans want to make this about process, i get it. but at the end of the d, the process that matters, we get health care reform that american people like, or we dont. and thats where the political battle is going to be fought after health care is passed. so i understand that republicans want to get stuck on the process. thats not where the health care battle is going to be. the battle is does it have positive effect ...

Play out this week and bigger picture, what effect if any, will it bring in the mid terms. if its any indication, it is clearly a narrative at this point, that the republicans are attempting to seize on, even if some of the facts and the realities they create around it are not necessarily true. for instance, not everybody in america is against it. nor is everybody in america for it. although you hear a lot of that around here. another for instance of course, theyll call it a government takeover ...
