to get it done. most want to go home and deal with constituents. this process has been flawed since the beginning. taub about obamacare. it didn't pass until christmas eve. it had a full year. it was debated on the floor for a month. it had over 100 hearings and included 150 amendments from republicans. that is vastly different than what we are seeing today. that's a major reason you are having a problem with the bill and lack of support from practically everyone. >> lynne, talk about the political calculation here. if the special election showed us anything, the president's declining poll numbers did not hurt these republicans. are they looking at their votes, especially on health care as what will give them their re-election chances. >> what we don't know is if in 2018 that president trump's ability to elect himself transfers to other candidates.
