Instance, theyre already using the debt limit vote, this procedural vote, against him in his primary challenge by matt bevin. mitch mcconnell essentially wrote a check to president obama, a black check. so even if he says hes in the going to get involved in these primary fights, he is creating circumstances in which these groups can use against the incumbents. >> perry, i want to talk about this discharge position. lets talk about how that would work. obviously, the idea here is democrats are go...
