thanks for making time for me. >> thank you. we want to say good morning to the political power panel and jen socky, former traveling press secretary for the obama campaign and republican strategist chip salesman. it's great to have all three of you here. grover nor quist is giving cover to john boehner, thumbs up from grover backing his plan b saying it doesn't violate the overall anti-tax pledge and conservative groups like the heritage action fund are urging republicans to vote no on this. don't give in to any tax hike at all. does the speaker have the votes? >> yes. i think my understanding is this bill will pass tonight and it will be closer to the speaker and he'll lose some republican votes and some republicans will vote for it as well and this is part of the posturing campaign. you saw that a little bit yesterday with president obama and also boehner. they're both negotiating in public to figure out there will be tax increases at some kind,
