[0:09] [music]

[0:11] from ABC News this week with Koki

[0:15] Roberts, Sam [music] Donaldson featuring

[0:19] David Brinkley, and George Will.

[0:23] >> Wonderful. When House Speaker N Gingrich

[0:25] left town this summer, he had barely

[0:27] survived a coup attempt in his own

[0:29] party.

[0:30] >> We had a problem. We had to manage the

[1:38] say about that? Will it last? We'll ask

[1:40] him. But there's more, Koke.

[1:42] >> Right. There's more because there's more
