, though, in the house we were just looking at the -- sort of the democrats who are likely to get gavels in the house. maxine waters, who has been a regular rhetorical target of the president's on the campaign trail over the past few weeks, she's going to have one of those gavels. financial services committee. and one of the things she can do is use her power of subpoena, which she has, to get information from and about the president and from and about the president's cabinet that have not yet been looked at at all as republicans have been in charge of the house. >> look at this list. i just want to bring one name to the attention of our viewers, and that is congressman -- >> richard neal. >> richard neal at the end. >> richie neal from massachusetts who's been in there for decades. you've maybe never heard of him before. he is likely, likely to be the next chairman of the house ways and means committee. and why is that important? because that is the one house committee that will be able to get president's tax returns if he wants them. if he wants them. and if the committee votes to get

the most fascinating questions of this election is whether or not nancy pelosi will take over the gavel i suspect she will still politics right and then see pelosi is the one who brings all the money to the party i'll be very surprised if she's not the next speaker of the house now personally i would prefer some other choices i think the time has come to have a change over there i do want to say this though let's let's not kid ourselves if the economy should turn and i'm not anticipating that certainly not in the next year but if it should turn don't think for a second that democrats in the house would get the blame for presidents get the credit as this president's getting presidents get the blame i actually think presidents get too much credit and pretty much blame. for the business cycle but that's how it works i'm not sure that that's going to be something that's going to work i mean. a different perspective on this conversation because it's something that maybe gentlemen we should be talking about shouldn't we really be asking why the republicans aren't having a complete sweep look
