Together. Bizarre because youv got so much talent on this team but so far one and two to start the season. Coming off a loss tuesday in portland. What are we going to see about the attorney general . The new attorney general gets confirmed. Does that change the president s choice . Absolutely. I think it should cause smart people inside the white house to say lets have a less partisan pick. That farmer from iowa. Who he was rudely insulted. He paid the price. In front of a bunch of trial lawyers in texas, i would add. Is it possible that you think president obama call eric hold skper say, stay on two more years . Not at all. Hed been wanting to leave for a while. He was waiting for a moment when controversy was largely absent from his life. Harry reid did not let bills from the house get a vote in the senate. So president obama never got to say yes or no to the bills. Everything stopped. I think thats going to be a big difference. I think were going to see bills get voted on. Mcconnell

Hi, wolf. The president acknowledged last nights tough loss. At times he s
Votes to pass through the senate. Obviously the senate rules require 60 to pass but there are lots of things that the house and senate can do together that will get democrat votes, particularly if the republicans end up with 54 in the senate as i think they are likely to end up with, that they can then send to the president s desk. How about investigations . Do you think the senate is going to be investigating like the irs . The irs scandal . Or are those just going to be done on the house side. No i think some of those on the senate. The senate has greater leverage in that the senate has the power to advise and consent on appointments. If the president s to get somebody in the Treasury Department to fill one of the available slots, then they are going to have to be more forthcoming with information and response to questions from the committee. What are we going to see about the attorney general, the president eric holder said he is leaving, new attorney general is chosen by the presid
