promised repeal, why don't we make the bill look more like a repeal. >> bill: he came out with four new ideas today. can the senate get to yes when you have a minimum of nine that won't even allow it to go forward? >> i think the senate will get to yes. i have a lot of faith in senator mcconnell and having the senate work its will on this. i do believe they'll move forward. would we like to see this as something that is more fair to everyone involved in process, that allows individuals to have access to affordable healthcare up and down the range, absolutely. do we think we're moving that direction? yes, we do. >> bill: the white house, was early may, the president got involved after you sputtered in march, i think it was. you came back two months later. what did he do in may that enabled the house to get to yes?
