and then he said if you like it, you want to keep it. and the vice president said that and nancy pelosi said tha and that was actuall one of the core principles of obamacare. do you can keep your policy. >> going on the insurance exchange, that is the law now, my staff us go on there as well, members of staff that went on, it took over four hours and multiple attems to get honor. lori: thee's a time factor and i imagine they're putting it off. let me ask you a about the woman until after the midterm. that is so transparent as political. it's clearly because they don't want the backfire the

democrats positions are in jeopardy. >> yes, so much they have done is political. there are so many actions that they take. the aministration had to know with regard to that as well at insurance compananies could not comply with that and the issue you are talking about as well is done purely for political purposes. it sells more the american public on fixing the problem again d it also sells well for the democrats in november 2014. lori: i don't know how well it is sellng. we have this tracking poll. 33%. only 33% of americans right now have a favorable listening and that is a record low of obamacare. so what do you think about the senate? you think the republicans will have a majority there?

>> yes. the whole process, the vast majority of americans -- obamacare was not affecting him, but now it is affecting them and their families and their kids and college kids will soon learn when they go back to college and in the spring, saying that they have to have ealth care on campus and they can have their same policies anymore so all of this means that it's a good thing to try to repeal it. >> do you think that you will have success repealing it this time around? that total backfired with the senate. honestly the strategy can be part of the budget and this thing was about to implode.

that they talk about. we need more younger pple or the higher costs for all americans. >> okay, talkingup his nuclear option, is this a deflection technique on the part of the democrats? >> in a way, b it's alsothe white house is not following a law, they're not following the rules and he's not going to follow the rules anymore either. >> so it allows him toversee the sucoittee on these entities and we know that he's very in faor of reducing mortgage principles and helpg people in these underwater mortgages and this includes this

bill going forward. so it is going to be a problem. right now we have good guy that is warnin the program and he has done an exemplary job of trying to make sure thatthe taxpayer is not put on the hook again. some of the ideas will do just the opposite with the taxpayer on the hook and by rewriting assorted peoples mortgages go down, it puts more cuts on their so there's pros and cons. t's also unfair t the american public at the sametime. lori: thank you so much for addressing some of these pressing issues and it's so nice to see you. have a wonderful holiday. all right, up next, hamid karzai telling president obama that he has to wait in the white house is not so happy about bny mellon combines investment management & investment servicing,

and it will deter them as we did during the cold war. that's a nnstarter. >> how do you think the secret negotiations are going. >> well, i finally got a corroborating source today. i knew that they were going on and she has bee working on the side and because of her iranian background, she has been trying to do this because this administration has said, okay, we can't stop them from going nuclear withhat they are doing and let's cu a deal. because the iranians deeply want these sanctions as well. >> general, thank you f your time and your insight.
