we represent lots of different points of view and values, come from lots of different kinds of districts. we need to pull together. let me underscore why i have confidence we will. up to now, with a slimmest of slim majorities we have shown unbelievable discipline and passed our legislative agenda. don't cut us out while we are also not counting out nancy pelosi and her leadership. >> let me push back respectfully as the only person among all of us who spent time in the party formerly known as the gop. you have a party that doesn't act in good faith, that is not there to govern, that doesn't need a full set of facts to smear you with. i wonder if you are concerned about a kernel of what happens today whether you succeed or fail being extorted or exploited by your political opposition and really used as a cudgel against the party? >> no question about that.
