McConnell: Want To Get Rid Of Obamacare? "Make Me The Majority Leader Next Year"

MEGYN KELLY: But that is not going to happen with a Democratic president in the White House, with Barack Obama in the White House. So that's -- right now that is just talk. Is there any realistic, you know, workout or end around, whichever you know the people want for this law? SEN. MITCH McCONNELL: Well, the roadblock is the Democratic senate. You know one thing the voters of America could do would be to make me the Majority Leader next year. At least that way we could get some of this relief on the president's desk. I mean, right now he's protected from anything he doesn't want to do by a Democratic Senate, which enables him to do whatever he chooses to do. KELLY: What do you think the likelihood is that that happens? McCONNELL: Well, I think the American people, you look at what happened in the Florida special election Tuesday. A race the Democrats were expected to win. They didn't. Obamacare was a big issue in that race. I think we've got an excellent chance of turning the Senate around next year and taking America in a different direction. And at least, even with the president still there being able to get onto his desk things that would provide relief from this catastrophe that has bee inflicted on the American people through Obamacare.
