NBC affiliate WPSD 6 in Paducah, Kentucky caught Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Rand Paul Wednesday on a hot mic

Paul “I just did CNN and I just go over and over again ‘We’re willing to compromise, I don’t think they (Democrats) poll tested ‘we won’t negotiate.’ I think it’s awful for them to say that over and over again.”

McConnell “Yeah, I do too and I — and I just came back from that two hour meeting with them and that, and that was basically the same view privately as it was publicly,”

Paul “I think if we keep saying, ‘We wanted to defund it (Obamacare), we fought for that’ and that we’re willing to compromise on this, I think… We’re gonna win this, I think.”
