My next appearances are Tuesday July 6th 1pm on the Fox Strategy Room and Wednesday July 7th 1pm same place. Here's the link you can watch live on line... http://live.foxnews.com/strategy-room

I think to the outside observer this seems like politicians who have no clue what they are doing but in fact its the exact opposite. The deadlock is deliberate and no one is innocent. The Governor and the Legislature, majority and minority all have a stake here. The governor is trying to salvage a legacy and is putting his stamp on the process.
