. >> i want to bring in democratic strategist, communications director chris kofinis, and joe watkins morning. >> good morning, chris. >> the administration says people will have an average of 53 plan options to choose from, although the prices can vary widely. let's take a look at some of the figures they released. a family of four, annual income $50,000, would pay $600 in arizona, $800 in georgia, $859 in new hampshire, $961 in indiana, over $1,000 in mississippi. chris, is this going to help persuade people to sign up? >> well, it's definitely going to help. any time you have a big policy being introduced, especially something that is for certain segments emotional in terms of health care, there's going to be a learning curve. as people realize -- >> tell me about it. >> that they can get good quality health care that's subsidized, especially for those families that are lower income, i think they'll be attracted to this. so i see this building for over time. >> joe, you say tell me about it. and i assume you're referring to the learning curve. >> yeah, yeah. >> but this report says

and chris kofinis. i didn't get enough yesterday. it was just a couple days ago.eaders from both parties standing behind the president's move for military action. now we're having these marshmallow moments. this is backlash from, you know, constituents. chris, let me just begin with you. we know the president addresses the nation tuesday. that came out today. it appears his momentum has stalled. how does he get it back? >> well, i mean, i'm not sure stalled is the right way to put it. i think to some extent it's gotten worse. at least with public opinion. i mean, i'll just give you one example. senator man chin's office right now, for and against, against it's 100-1. i don't think his office is any kind of rare example. there's a lot of concern in this country about this. i think you're seeing that in those town halls. there are going to be a lot of members that go back to their districts, their states this weekend, they're going to see it again. i think the president in that address on tuesday is going to have to make a very passionate case about why this is nece

chris kofinis joining frus washington.m marco rubio yesterday in the senate foreign relations committee. we saw the yes from hillary clinton that she is supportive of possible limited engagement in syria. even throw mitch mcconnell in there. he's skeptical. guys, chris, to you. politics at play here? you laugh. >> well, i mean, either politics at play -- i mean, you want to say no. but that's not the reality. for some, there's always going to be politics at play. did marco rubio all the sudden change his position about whether he was going to support military action to not supporting because he had a revelation or because he realized he was going to have a much more difficult time in that republican primary? i just have to say one more thing. before we entered the break, ben and other republicans like to criticize the president for taking this to congress. and i find that such a disingeneral jous -- >> the word "punt" i believe is used. >> this notion of punting it to congress. you know what? they're the ones that sit ther

chris kofinis is a former chief of staff to joe manchin of west virginia. first question, someone has got to blink. who will do that? >> you know, i think it may have already happened. i predict the republicans will blink. on foxnews.com, the headline story now is that the house is already telling the senate and pretty much telling everyone that if the senate kills this second pass they've done to defund obama care, they have another option which is to stop the subsidies to the congressional aides. now, what that will put the senate in the position of doing is whether or not they're willing to shutdown the government over an end of subsidies to their aides who effectively wrote this bill, and i don't think that that would go over very well with the american people, and i think that that's the republican gambit here. >> chris, that throws the tennis ball over to the senate democrats. what do they do? >> i'm not sure it really does. right now if you look at both the politics and the message dynamics of all this, the republicans have really created a mess for

bring in brian walsh, former spokesman for the republican senatorial committee and strategist chris kofinisyou wrote. this idea of eating the young and the amount of money spent by outside groups like heritage against what, you know, good -- who i think you would consider good, loyal republicans, i guess isn't there a concern when as you've got this going on, i mean, this does not send a message to the american people in terms of competent republican leadership when you have this kind of fighting going on. >> it's certainly concerns folks like myself. i mean, republicans have a great opportunity to win back the senate next year. democrats are on defense in red states across the country. we should be focusing on them, the folks that passed the very unpopular law and not fighting amongst ourselves. >> to that point, chris, so we have seen -- we did hear in the house, they were talking about going after some of the red state democrats. we know -- i know the dccc started a program to go after some vulnerable house republicans to try to see if it's at all possible to cobble together that biparti
