avoids chaos. i don't know a democrat or republican who benefits from chaos. >> reporter: and this is really both parties trying to sell this deal to their governing wings and say we need to change the conversation here. i can report this morning that the bill has at least two additional co-sponsors, tim kaine on the democratic side and lisa murkowski on the republican side. both say they will get behind this bill. that's a good start for people who want to see this pass. but it really is going to come down to the president and whether he decides this is something he could ultimately sign and that he would be willing to sell. because remember, if this is even going to get to his desk, it would have to go through the senate and the house, where they have already taken one tough health care vote. they don't want to get involved in this if they don't have to. the president has sort of been on every side of this so far. here was his comments on this last night. >> while i commend the bipartisan work done by senators alexander and murray, and i do commend it, i continue to believe congress must find a solution to the obamacare mess
