That's the problem with the financial sector. Banks and the financial sector live in the short run, not the long run.

Vegas is definitely a place where we can win. We had a good run here last year, and I feel even more confident about the car we're taking this time. We're taking the car that we raced in California two weeks ago, and it was obviously a good car.
Republicans should save the clip of Jonathan Gruber and run it over and over again in the run-up to the 2016 election.
