what is he doing at a steve king fund-raiser?a, and if he wants to run for president, he needs to try to appeal to iowa republican voters and so he is there fund-raising for an iowa congressman. but i mean, i think that maybe senator paul did have an interview. i think he's also smart enough to realize that being in a confrontation with the congressman and immigration activist is probably not the place he wants to be. let the congressman deal with it and just sort of run away. >> that seems to be the problem, christina, for folks like paul even if they run very, very perfect campaigns and do do a very good job appealing to my tor minorities, they're stuck with the steve kings and further out than that, the mo brooks. >> don't forget, this is steve king who told our "roll call" reporter the bill, itself, was like he had ordered it off the menu. this is someone who is shaping republican policy right now and that's not a place speaker john boehner wants to be in. even mitch mcconnell who had a successful effort defeating this bill,
