Republican Rep. Jim Ramstad of Minnesota on the current state of the president’s Social Security phase-out bill.
âRight now, to be very candid with you, we donât have broad Republican support let alone bipartisan support for [President Bush’s] plan that was outlined during the campaign.â
And could it happen this year?
âIt could. But uhhh ⦠Yâknow, and the Vikings could win the Super Bowl this year. I mean the chances are not 50-50, let me be honest with you.â
The quotes come from Rep. Ramstad’s interview on Minnesota Public Radio Monday morning.
(ed.note: If you’re interested in listening yourself, the quotes come at 30:18 and 34:14 in the recording.)
