represent the entire country, not just the reddest of red states below the mason dixon line. we need to get rid of the dogma, recapture the center of american politics. i know governor dean has a different opinion but things are not going so well for the affordable care act. there is is a clear path forward for republicans if they stop snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory. thank you both for joining me tonight. thank you. thank you. coming up, the cheney family will not be spending christmas together. liz cheney is feuding with her sister over marriage equality and in the rewrite, it is time to once again rewrite america s understanding of police use of deadly force.
