Van Drew: “I’m to be blunt we need to deal with it what he Jeff Van Drew want to do, I would like to be there right now I would like to be working on the healthcare issue, coming up with a good compromise forget about the Democrats and with our own caucus and seen in the longer term within a year, we’re going to have a good solid thorough replacement for what is terrible ObamaCare to do subsidize insurance companies. In the short-term people are getting the renewal notices, the premiums are doubling, I am saying we need to deal with that now because otherwise number one it is the right thing to do morally, number two were getting it killed. It’s always about I’m to be very blunt again and in the midterms and struggling with her healthcare and is not going to help us we have a responsibility responsibility. We need to forget about the filibuster and get government open and we could do some of the good things, the president has emphasizes over and over again we didn’t have the filibuster with a Republican majority we can make significant positive improvements that’s what we should do the second thing, I just talked to him about healthcare and how tough of the years would be next year the midterms we’re going to win I believe were on the right side but we gotta put our thinking caps on, the Democrats are smart at politics. We have to be smarter that is “the bottom line”.”
