Botched? i think the president s comments on this speak for themselves. one more, the same thing. the president and members of the white house suggested that maybe we could get democrats on board, health care reform, but the fact that no democrat, not one dc supported the last attempt, and given the desires of the freedom caucus, versus what the democrats were doing, is it reasonable to think that only one democrat would want to come on board with this? no. i think it is not unreasonable is it reasonable. it depends on how they want to get there. it is picking up enough to get to 216. it is possible, sure. there is more to have the conversation. isn t that a boehner tactic. ....

Worked with chris christie in new jersey, two years in jail. and a reminder how these scandals persist, especially when you get investigations. i wonder, this has been a stain on chris christie s governorship. it s cost him a lot in terms of his popularity in the state. although he himself was not indicted in it. i wonder if it s in any way a reminder of what happened with the white house, that this investigation could go on for years. that s one of the chilling things about an investigation when you re in the white house. and this afternoon, we ll hear from richard burr and mark warner, who are still credibly and in a bipartisan way doing the senate investigation. and there are good reasons to not want to go to an outside investigation. you have to have legislation, the president would have to sign it. you have to staff it up. you have to find people who are not partisans and can be acceptable. the model would be the 9/11 ....
