>> joining me from the last word's binderful of women, minnesota democratic senator, amy klobuchar andpolitical reporter for "the washington post" at saturday's gridiron dinner. senator, minnesota already has a standup comedian in the united states senate. what are you trying to do here. this is franken territory you're venturing into. >> lawrence, thanks for having me on. great time to get together and poke some fun. al is funny, but keeps it under wraps. i get to hear some of his jokes. >> you really went at some points that would be considered politically sensitive, but there's something about those rooms that allow jokes that in any other situation you wouldn't come close to being willing to tell. what is it like to get up there with this material, the president is there and everyone who your jokes are aimed at, almost all of them are there. do you feel kind of nervous about this? it is not like a politician to be cracking things like that. >> it is not for the risk averse. i will say bobby jindal did a great job, the governor of louisiana. to sit and hear him, i thought this is li

. >> amy klobuchar. >> she did a fantastic job last night. >> hillary clinton's numbers are very stronghere we're at this moment with the partisanship in this country. she's gaining sfor from independents. she would have generational support among young women. if she decided to run, she's probably the only one to put together the coalition to run. >> just because you worked for her, i'm assuming you would support her in 2016? >> i think nobody has asked me for my support right now, but i'll say this, which is donna is right about this. if she ran, if she ran, there will be a transformation al effect as there was a transformational with then senator obama when he ran in terms of a female. we saw it in 2008 as well. that was a very, very close race if you look at the popular vote during the primaries. what the polls tell us right now is that people really aren't ready to deal with 2016 as they should not be, and i looked at a cnn poll from march of 2009 looking at the republican primary race and it was sarah palin and mike huckabee. >> i mean, that's what -- you're being so curiously quie

care law three years after it was passed republican senator orrin hatch and democratic senator amy klobuchar leading the charge repealing a key medical device tax that helps bankroll the law. stuart varney, anchor of "varney & company" on the fox who upwards 40 million people will be paying a whole lot more for their individual coverage after obamacare takes full effect next year. in some cases, the premiums that we will pay will double. remember this is a 17,000 page list of rules for obamacare. it takes full effect next year, january the 1st, and already you can see a great deal of dissent on how to pay for it and what it's actually going to cost and there is real, real concern here, that it won't be implemented properly on time. heather: yeah. all those exchanges. 33 different states, not forming them on their own. >> that's right. heather: thanks so much, stu. we appreciate it. we'll talk a little bit more about it with our political panel later. bill: what do you do with this now? you were counting on this revenue to pay for other aspects of the law. where do you find the money. heather

bobby jindal, minnesota senator amy klobuchar, they both released text of their addresses as well.host: we have a little bit from what they said. a little bit more john from inside the dinner. describe the evening in your own words. guest: sure. i was struck by it -- this is not the white house correspondents association dinner, which i think people are familiar with, in part because it is a larger event, and in part because you guys have cameras there. at dinner tends to be a little more celebrity focused. it is a mixing of new york and washington, hollywood and washington. this dinner is much more profiled -- it did not have the celebrity clientele there. the one person i noted, partially because he is important to my readership, was john harbough. there was not the level of celebrity. the room itself is pretty muted in terms of decorations. we do not have thought the big screens or presentations you sometimes get the correspondents' association dinner. the jokes tend to be a little bit more, at least this time, tend to be little more inside baseball. the president's remarks were
