immigration reform. everybody thinks it's it's up to the leadership to push the bill through. steve israel is the chairman of the democratic campaign committee. you are a smart guy. i'm going to appeal to you to look across the aisle and tell me who's calling the shots over there. is it boehner? is it cantor, mccarthy or some guy or woman we don't know their name who somehow speaks for 80 or so rambling uncontrollable tea partiers? >> well, tachks for having me on, chris. the answer to your question is it's a small cadre of extremist right wing republican who have hijacked their party and hijacked their caucus. you know, we had what should have been a noncontroversial farm bill that should have passed with a bipartisan majority. they managed to take a noncontroversial farm bill and turn it into a partisan mess that failed. i cannot imagine what they're going to do with a controversial immigration bill. it shows that they continue to be incapable of compromise,
