i mean, i think comparing to washington republicans, i mean, you can take certain positions in washington and they're not necessarily going to result in your agenda and enacted. in washington we saw the government being shut down for two weeks and in these state houses i don't think that there's this same kind of attitude of let's burn everything down in the name of the agenda that we want to enact. so, what you're seeing is in a number of states, conservative agenda's being enacted and whether those align with outline and ideology and philosophy, this's a separate question. right? but the fact is anyone that runs in 2016 will have to appeal to a significant conservative base in order to prevail, not just in the primaries, but perhaps in the general and that's really the question if you can do both. >> robert, final question to you. what's interesting is you're also seeing the governors making a big play to kind of stick together in their, like, we're not those guys and it was sort of interesting hearing the washington crowd trying their best to say, we are not that bad. it is kind of --
