Mark Levin isn’t pulling any punches but neither is Senator Ron Johnson as they both discuss fighting to repeal Obamacare and the Cruz/Lee defund strategy. And it got heated pretty quick. At one point Johnson said he didn’t come on for an inquisition.
Below is part one as they are continuing their discussion as I type. I will bring you part two as soon as it is over.

So Johnson though that he would get the usual softballs from Mark?

Johnson is fighting with no arms or legs. Just runnin his mouth.
He's one of the 27 US Senate RINOs. Talk is cheap.
Fascinating. Rarely do you hear such candor and rancor. Johnson appeared shaken and speechless at one point.
I can’t believe these Harry Reid Republicans couldn’t come with a better explanation than “I voted for cloture because it was for a bill that would defund ObamaCare” when all but the lowest of low information voters know they were killing the defunding effort by allowing Reid to amend the bill to strip the defund provision after ending cloture.
Johnson wanted to know of Levin what Levin’s approach would have been to defund if he couldn’t get 51 votes in the Senate. The answer, as Cruz has pointed out, is—don’t blink. The Senate and JugEars can do nothing without the House. The people hate ObummerCare. The House passed a bill to fund the entire government except ObamaCare. The approach: when Reid says the defund bill is DOA in the Senate, tell Ole Pruneface, “Yeah, Pal? Well, funding ObummerCare is DOA in the House.”
This is a horrible strategy.
When something this big is implemented, it becomes almost impossible to kill. As Mark Levin stated, if Democrats (particularly Red State Democrats) are seemingly unconcerned with how their constituencies feel now, how will that change their positions in the future?
Yet, the strategy among some Republicans is basically saying, “Let's let this thing be implemented, destroy our current health-care system, and bring harm to the majority of the citizens. That's the way we win elections.”
Gee, why don't we use that same strategy with the deficit, or why don't we go ahead and completely open the borders? We can crash the economy and lose our sovereignty as a country! That would be great! We could win every election then!
Even though I'm certain many of those supposedly on our side are far more concerned with looking good to the media than looking good to the electorate, I'm fairly certain that a number of the elected Republicans are actually drinking the same Kool-aid as their Democrat counterparts, and actually are supportive of Obamacare. As of now, that's a bigger problem for us than our fight against the Democrat Party.

Well said, RT. The current crop of Republicans, with a few exceptions, are nothing but run of the mill democrats posing as conservatives when it is close to election time.
