Joining me now, good morning. good morning, alex. what do we know about the events, the dinners and the luncheons this week. anything substantive accomplished? we know that the president actually discussed wanting to have a grand bargain by the end of july. that s something that came out a day that far. some republican senators were, i guess, surprised that the president laid out some specific potential entitlement cuts that he d like to see that they say they hadn t seen from leadership. now whether or not this actually means something there-l get done is a higher hill to climb because john boehner, mitch mcconnell, both said that they don t want to have any more revenue, any additional revenue, regardless of the fact that the president met with these folks. the other difficult thing here, you know, president obama coming in, this was one of his deficiencies. he didn t have these established relationships with most of these folks on the hill. that s one reason joe biden was ....
Sequestration? bob and i have talked about it a lot. i think bob was absolutely right about the origins of sequestration. obama proposed it. i don t think anybody ever expected it to come to be. certainly he didn t. the republicans, i think, hoped it would come to be and rapidly embraced it. i think it s irresponsible all around. that but it is again a product look what got them there in the first place. a couple questions about hillary clinton, because you wrote the biography 2008, a woman in charge. we look ahead to 2016. give me what you know about her and that exhaustive research for that book. what s your best guess? that bill clinton wants her to run. assuming that she s healthy. i think you would have to assume that he would be healthy as well, if she were to run. it s a long ways off. ....
