“I think most Americans would say fight that fight separate from the federal budget. Don’t partially shut down the federal government, don’t make things worse by fighting the same fight over and over,” Costello argued.
Rokita responded, “No, you’re part of the problem,” prompting Costello to roll her eyes and scoff, “Ugh, come on. That’s so easy.”
“Carol, you’re beautiful but you need to be honest as well,” Rokita finally said, eliciting an eyebrow raise from Costello.

3. I suspect Rokita deliberately tries to anger women, in order to fluster them.

I congratulate this young woman on her composure. I wish she had more airtime to refute his lies about the Affordable Care law. By the way, I think we should all call it that, as much as possible, at least for now. Apparently, most US crazies don't realize that it IS Obamacare. We will have time for gloating at its success, later.
