Be at the table to work on issues like the health care debate and this one. i frankly think the just say no strategy was the political equivalency of a high wire act and it failed. now the question is are you going to get to the table and be a part of fashioning a product. i think im going to find some to do that. bob corker of tennessee has already indicated he wanted to work on this bill. richard shelby has worked with us on a number of bills. i think he wants to work on this one, too. >> than...
