bill clinton will campaign for alison grimes next week in eastern kentucky. on the house front both parties agree they are competing over a very narrow playing field. this isn't about whether republicans are going to hold the house, it's pretty much a given that they will. the question is what is their majority going to look like and what are the pick-up seats going to look like. republicans hold 234 seats in the house. they have set themselves a goal of 245 total, meaning they would like to net 11 to proclaim a good night for them. you'll notice it's a pretty good night for the republicans if gop candidates are knocking off democratic incumbents in places like illinois, arizona, minnesota, california and perhaps new york where the lion's share of their targets are this year. democrats believe they'll pick up seats. if they can, they'll do well in places like virginia, new jersey, florida, iowa and colorado, all places they're targeting. first lady michelle obama implores democrats to turn out in a new video that the dccc has out. >> when it comes to the midt

lower than eight percent this is pretty shocking especially considering that before obamacare eastern kentuckycounties had the highest uninsured rate in the state really there's not that much that separates kentucky and the other red states particularly poor red states like it except for the fact that kentucky decided to fully implement obamacare let's get back to the matter is i'm sure this gives mitch mcconnell heartburn obamacare has been a huge success in mcconnell's home state this is true of kentucky as well as the rest of the united states the uninsured rate the core measure of whether obamacare is doing its job in getting health care to people who didn't have it as plummeted since the law went into effect and as the commonwealth fund pointed out earlier this month the vast majority of americans including seventy four percent of people who say the republicans are happy with their obamacare coverage all this is happening of course as republican politicians continue to try to sabotage health care reform at every every turn whether by refusing to expand medicaid or trying to cancel the sub

i was in eastern kentucky because there are such incredible health care problems.he area of eastern kentucky where i was there was pretty good access to care. there are parts of the state where it can be difficult to find primary care doctors. healthre a lot of clinics around the country. reported right is a beginning of the rollout of the affordable care act exchanges. there were parts of philadelphia where it might not seem like a long distance but if you don't have a car, it can be very difficult to get across town to see a doctor. next up is jack on the independent line in oklahoma. he is a member of the medical community. registeredwife is a nurse and i am a paramedic. i declined acceptance into medical school. the cost of tuition was very high. i considered going back and going to medical school. i won't because of the horrors of my life experiences a regular basis. that is a large reason you cannot get people to stay or come into the profession. they are demanding and they think my wife is a made. they think the physicians are their licensed gun dealers. the

they've seen the devastation in eastern kentucky and they know what the president's newest regulations will likely mean for middle-class families like theirs. skyrocketing utility bills, higher prices, fewer jobs. they know that the administration's war is an elitist crusade that threatens to ship good, well-paying jobs overseas, splinter our manufacturing base and throw yet another load on to the backs of middle-class kentuckians who have already struggled so much. the hardworking people i represent are worried enough just about making their mortgage payments and paying for car repairs and coping with energy bills and summer vacations. these are the people that president obama and his washington democratic allies should be listening to. not the liberal elites that have been begging the president to go after the coal industry and the people whose livelihoods depend on it. but president obama doesn't seem terribly interested in these folks or their problems. once again, he'll be off campaigning this week. he'll huddle with more left-wing ideologues, the kind of folks that love to make a

that the look on his face broke her heart, but this is the plight of many of our families in eastern kentucky. she wrote, their livelihood is being taken away from them by the war on coal. these are the people that distant bureaucrats here in washington should be forced to meet before they draft their rules. this guy just wants to put food on the table, to keep the lights on and to give his kids a better life. but the war on cool jobs is taking -- the war on coal jobs is taking away more than his livelihood and that of many others. it is taking away his dignity as well. maybe that's why the administration doesn't want to meet kentuckians like him. maybe that is why they don't want to look at my constituents, look them in the eye. it's a big problem, and that's why i'm so proud of the people who stood up to this latest ominous regulation. yesterday the e.p.a. confirmed that it won't hold a single hearing within hours of my state as it works to finalize national energy tax regulations that could devastate the lives of tens of thousands of kentuckians. they don't care, and they're not listening.
