Booker on the Brink, House GOP Exodus, ‘Shut Down DC’ Stupidity

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America as they serve up some strong martinis to start the week. First, they find an odd appreciation for Sen. Cory Booker's campaign admitting it needs to raise $1.7 million by the end of the month to have any chance at being competitive for the Democratic nomination - and it makes Jim wonder why several other weak candidates haven't already closed up shop. They also shake their heads as a lot of House Republicans don't want to be there anymore. Many of them understandably hate being in the minority but Jim offers another, more serious reason for why a lot of conservatives want out of Washington. And they have no patience for the Shut Down DC climate protesters who snarled traffic in Washington this morning by demonstrating on several critical roads and intersections.
