because they spend a lot of money and they are a good overarching example of what you would call rockefeller republicans. they are not trying to moderate republican party. going along with libertarian demands, resolutely for the repeal of obamacare, resolutely anti-tax. the differences they have, or they are more into speaking for businesses and they always will be because they are the chamber of commerce. i do not think you are wrong. the problem republicans have is one demographic, and in a state like this, you look at how close the senate race was on the presidential race in 2012, that , and that was because hispanic voters were turning against them in massive numbers here, colorado, states they did not think about, and people that are not socially conservative and they do not care about rent speaking. i do not disagree with you, it is just what part of the libertarianism to decide into the party. is actually blamed he thoughtes a race he could win. i do not think it is so much that he was a bad candidate, but he completely failed to reach out to people who if they always voted for republ

thank you. >> thank you very much, senator rockefeller. senator roe. >> thank the chairman very much and would like to thank everyone in the room for their dedication to serving veterans on the respective committees. as i said last night in the hearing i think for the veterans who can get in there, they can get good care but the committee has an opportunity to elevate that to great care for all veterans. i think that's one of the goals. i see two problems. one, the backlog easily fizzible. the other is the culture of the va which is going to be much more difficult to fix. i find it almost incomprehensible that people would place people, veterans, any patient, in a delayed status and then gain financially which is what happened in phoenix, arizona. it is unbelievable we let that happen and set up a system where that could happen and reward people for doing that. i am a veteran. i served in the second united states infantry division, 1973 and '74 in korea and senator mccain, thank you and the other veterans around this table for your service
