mark levin speaks as the top two low pressures raise a stink. we hope to get on chris christie soon, we've had him on a number of times in the past so hope springs eternal. we have kentucky senator rand paul. do you think it's gone too far? >> i think it's time to dial it down. we have enough democrats to attack maybe republicans can quit attacking republicans. i've said my piece on this. i don't like republicans attacking republicans because it doesn't help to grow the party bigger in the northeast, the republican party is shrinking, it's basically on life support so dividing up the party, which is already shrinking in the northeast isn't good. i've tried to spend a lot of time talking about some libertarian ideas and i don't like that being criticized that that can't be part of the party because i think that's actually part of the way we grow the party and i will continue to talk about privacy, about foreign aid, sending money to countries that are burning our flag, and that may not be popular with all republicans in washington, but it's very

mark levin and others are taking seriously this whole issue of overcriminalization. so the first thing, as the congresswoman said, is that the judge had no choice. but this case was overcharged. and i want to say, i wonder if the congresswoman agrees that angela corey's predecessor, harry shorstein would have never, ever charged this case. >> never. never. he never would have charged her like this. never. >> and congresswoman -- >> and you're talking about someone that had no priors. a person who had a master's degree, had a job. and it was an incident. >> right. >> one incident. and the week before, a person got convicted of murder and got 15 years, and the next week she got sentenced to 20 years. and i want you to know when i talk to my colleagues and i've talked to different groups and organizations around the country, it's hard for them to believe that a person could actually get 20 years for firing a warning shot and no one got hurt, but yet, in sanford, you kill a youth and, yet, you're not guilty. i'm not comparing it, but it's something wrong with the system,

carl levin, michigan democrat, veteran senator retiring at the end of next year, spoke up against it. he really was the only one at the meeting to do so. it's possible they lose another vote. mark pryor, a democrat, up for re-election next year, who voiced some concerns. he told me yesterday he was leaning no on the nuclear option. there are a couple who are on the fence, veterans as well, jack reid of rhode island is a possible no. although people think that he'll eventually come back, both he and max baucus of montana. even if those four do vote no, it will be 50-50 split, and that would bring in vice president joe biden, who is widely expected to vote with senate democrats if they do this. they almost certainly have the votes if reid wants to go over. reid is very confident he has the votes, because this is being driven largely by younger, more junior senators who now compose a majority of the senate democratic caucus, who actually never served a day in the minority, and they are fed one the filibusters. they see that as what has been impeding their progress over the years. host: one last question for you. one of our follow others twitter writes in, don't use the term nuclea
