Discovery Network Puts Two Rival U.S.Senators On An Island For A Week - Rival Survial....

Here's the link to the story: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/sep/11/reality-tv-rival-us-senators-left-uninhabited-isla/

They were just on Letterman's show talking about the experience.

If they wanted to do a survivor type program they should have made them live on food stamps for a couple of months or working for minimum wage and trying to live on that income.

Letterman asked who will control the Senate after next week and the Repub said the Repubs. They talked about getting back to meeting in a bipartisan fashion versus in the partisan groups (Dems separately and Repubs separately) that they need to communicate better.

You watch - if the Repubs do take the Senate they will go out of their way to make nice and make the Dems look bad if they don't cooperate. The Repubs know how to stonewall and they will do everything to prevent that type of treatment by the Dems if they take control.
