we had 11 candidates in that primary. we are all united. we all know this race is bigger than any one person. as for me i ll continue doing what i did during the primary. emphasize my track record of actually get things done and my experience, which is i have a lot of experience from county commission chairman to secretary of state compared to an individual who has a rather thin resume to say the least. shannon: if you were to be successful do you see yourself coming to washington and being more aligned with the freedom caucus, the tuesday group. where do you line up on tax reform, healthcare repeal? things you may have to choose a faction. i ll be focused on what is best and right for the people of the sixth district and not get caught up in the factions. i d like to think i m a more results-oriented republican. i don t think we should it s
lights on. we were talking about tax reform, talking about repealing obamacare and having an entirely new health bill. at the end of the week what we re left with is just this short-term funding bill. tax reform is a long-term project that s going to go on through the year if it gets completed. what about the health care bill? do we ever come back to it? how do you cobble together the tuesday group and the freedom caucus and all these pieces who haven t been able to find common ground? very, very difficult. members of congress, as harold knows well, do not want to walk a plank for a bill that s going to have no chance of being signed into law. if you look forward to november 2018, if you vote to repeal the health care law and the senate does nothing, you don t have any of the political upside and you only have political downside. i think members of congress i m talking to every day are looking at that dynamic and saying, look, we could do fixes to the health care law, do things on
