HEADS UP: McConnell, Rand Paul Caught Talking Strategy On Hot Mic

[IdaBriggs]

11. Hysterical! and hopefully DELUSIONAL. Paul: "I think we'll win it."

As best I can do transcript wise --

PAUL: Do you have a second?

MCCONNEL: I'm all wired up here.

PAUL: I just didn't see an end. (note: others are saying that sentence is "I just did CNN.") I just go over and over again, we're willing to compromise, we're willing to negotiate. I think -- I don't think they've poll tested "we won't negotiate." I think its awful for them to say that over and over again.

MCCONNEL: Yeah, I do to. And I just came back from that two hour meeting with him and that was -- that was basically the same view privately as it was publicly.

PAUL: I think if we keep saying "we wanted to defund it, we fought for that, but now we're willing to compromise on this" I think they can't -- we're going to win -- I think -- I know we don't want to be here, but we're going to win this, I think.

I hope I get poll tested: "We won't negotiate" is my 100% top pick as a winning strategy for the White House and Democrats everywhere!!!

Poor Republicans - not used to Democratic spines!
