capitol hill, senator majority leader harry reid may resort to extreme measures to keep republicans from blocking presidential nominees. this is the so-called nuclear option, the big question right now is how close is he to using it? our chief congressional correspondent dana bash is following all of this and joins us live. >> reporter: hey there, john. it's all but certain he is going to try to change the rules at some point today. i'm cautious because i've seen this movement before and covered the senate long enough to know things can change at the last minute. the plan appears to be according to multiple democratic sources harry reid is going to launch the nuclear option, what that means in layman's terms is that it could be even more partisan on capitol hill if you can imagine that, than it is now. the reason that the democratic leader is going to seek to change the rules is because they're very frustrated with the fact that republicans have been holding up the president's nominees. let's just take a step back and talk about what we're discussing. look at the screen there, the

tough day for the obama administration on capitol hill. there was a lot of squabbling in the hearing room, real tensions evident between democrats and republicans on this panel but the obama administration officials were asked time and time again whether or not they can promise to hit the november 30th deadline for fixes healthcare.gov they laid out for themselves. they are unable to give a concrete answer to that that really brought confidence to the republicans on the panel on capitol hill. take a listen to this exchange where they ducked the issue whether or not they can guarantee november 30th is a head deadline for a fix. >> are we going to hit november 30th? >> thank you for the question and thank you for your kind words at the beginning, as well. the goal that has been laid out is for the site not to be perfect by the end of november -- >> functional people can log on. >> so the vast majority of americans will be able to use the site smoothly. that's the goal we're going for and working hard to get there. >> todd, the white house ch

a major debate on capitol hill. the division among republicans and democrats coming really to a boil this hour. >> indeed. senate majority leader harry reid is fed up with republican filibuster threats. he and other democratic leaders invoking what's known as the nuclear option. >> what does it mean? it would change a very important rule in the u.s. senate and allow just a simple majority, 51 votes to overcome a filibuster. reid says the change is needed to keep the senate from becoming obsolete. >> but republicans say, it's a bunch of pointless drama. chief congressional correspondent dana bash is on capitol hill with the details. drama or necessary? >> reporter: it depends who you ask, how's that a dodge to the question? this is something that has been boiling for some time. when you look at the to-ing and fro-ing and the partisanship and tension about filibusters, blocking a president's nom fine. since it's a democratic president, the the republicans and minority able to use their power of the philly buster to bl

i don't intend to be a politician on capitol hill. from what i hear, memories are very long and egos can be very bruised. i want to bring in john avlon, our senior political analyst here at cnn. so i keep hearing that partisanship could be at its very worst if the nuclear option is actually successful. to that i say, seriously, that was possible? i kind of thought we were at rock bottom. >> yeah. you know, by pretty much any measure, things are as hyperpartisan as ever before. this nuclear option would exacerbate even the deep divisions that exist right now. what i think is important for context here is for folk it is realize that the senate doesn't operate functionally with simple majority. the threshold is 60 not 51, the simple majority. this has been in place since 1917 when filibustering and cloture votes effectively began. in the last 12 years there have been 600. we've seen a dramatic ratcheting up of filibusters in the senate. that is what is creating the context and the sense of frustration. there are nearly 100 judicial vacan

dana bash is on capitol hill. joe, let's start with you. the same question we've been asking for weeks. anything about when this website could be fixed? >> no real specifics on that, but we do know the administration has said repeatedly the website will be functional for the vast majority of americans by the end of this month. clearly, that suggests it won't be perfect by the end of the month. the administration's been saying that for more than a week now that the system can process up to 17,000 registrations an hour. also important i think to point out that there's been a decidedly political tint to all of the testimony and the questions today. one of the senior members of the committee even bringing up that comment that former president clinton made just yesterday that the administration needed to make good on its promise that anybody who wanted to have their insurance could keep it. listen. >> it's kind of interesting to see as obama care implodes how everybody's running for cover. yesterday, we saw the former president of the united sta

it landed like a bomb on capitol hill. ahead of the vote, majority leader, harry reid, expressed frustration over republicans using filibusters to block president obama's nominees. >> these nominees deserve at least an up or down vote, yes or no. but republican filibusters deny them a fair vote, any vote, and deny the president his team. gridlock has consequences. it's not only bad for president obama, bad for this body, the united states senate, it's bad for our country. >> minority leader, mitch mcconnell, says democrats are creating a crisis to distract attention from obama care. >> millions of americans are hurting because of a law washington democrats forced upon them. what do they do about it? they cook up some fake fight over judges, a fake fight over judges. that aren't even needed. >> our chief congressional correspondent, dana bash, is on capitol hill following the dramatic, dare i say historic developmentans huge ramificat n ramifications. explain what is going on right now in congress. >> reporter: what's going

so 40-year-old todd park is heading to capitol hill today. he was subpoenaed and will appear before the government oversight committee. technical failures have botched the health carrollout and the administration says the first month enrollment will be low. official numbers are expected this week but some estimate the figures are as low as 550,000. now -- as 50,000. now two congressional plans to possibly fix the bill. senate democrats are working on a bill to force insurance companies to reinstate the estimated five million canceled policies and house republicans, well, they're scheduled to vote friday on a measure allowing insurers to sell plans otherwise banned by the current law. supporters, even a big one, former president bill clinton think president obama now needs to keep his promise that people who like their insurance can keep it. >> president clinton in that interview also said and i quote, the big lesson is that we are better off with this law than without it. and he said, quote, the enrollment period did not come off well because

the white house insisted he was too busy fixing the website to come to capitol hill. he said round-the-clock efforts are under way. >> there's much to do, we are making progress. >> as of now healthcare.gov can handle 25,000 users at one time. half of where it should be. security was a concern, will personal information be safe? according to the department of homeland there has been one unsuccessful site. >> would you put your details in there. >> i would have to see it. i haven't seen it yet. >> the answer is not yet, yes. >> up in the air is what to do for millions of americans who have got notices that plans have been cancelled and they must reenrol in new coverage. the white house is promising is fix for that as well. >> the house plans to vote friday on a bill that would let insurance companies sell the plans that are cancelled because of the health care law. >> now to the crisis in the philippines. relief aid is trickling in to survivors of typhoon haiyan. a shortage of medicine threatens to complicate overall efforts, forcing doctors to become creative during t

>>> one of the problems we have had is one side of capitol hill is invested in failure. and that makes, i think, the kind of process of fixing glitches as they come up and fine-tuning the law more challenging. but i'm optimistic we can get it fixed. >> back to the top story tonight, the president blaming republicans for the rocky rollout of healthcare.gov, just a week after he came out saying that was not him. that he was taking the blame. joining me now, brit hume, our fox senior analyst, so a week after he comes out and does the mea culpa thing, now he is coming out saying that it is the republicans. >> well, i guess he is saying they wouldn't help fix it. but this is a reflex, this is what he does. i can't imagine that would get him anywhere. because this is so clearly the creation of him and his party. the republicans had no buy in it, them or their party. and it is a little unreasonable for him to come in and pull the chestnuts out of the fire if they could even do it, given the continuing deterioration with it. every morning with the headlines, i think it is foolis

not even the president's close et al.ize on capitol hill are trying to do that. it is not just a political blow. it can undermine the viability of this new law. as you mentioned, for obama care to work, they need many more people enrolled. five times as much as last month. it is a major reason that these enrollment problems are causing these headaches. particularly because it is the webb that is causing the number to be so low and that was the sub of a highly partisan hearing on capitol hill today. >> a month and a half after its troubled launch, the health care website is still running at barely half its intended capacity. that from the white house's lead tech official. >> we have much work still to do. we're making progress at a growing rate. >> he was forced to testify by subpoena said he could not guarantee the website will be fully functional by the end of this month. the white house goal. the white house was eager to illustrate problems persist. >> i went on may ipad, health care.gov and i hit this button that says create account and it doesn't go anywhere.
