PLOUFFE YOU AMERICA! - David Plouffe on Obamacare: "This Law Is Working"
David Plouffe on Obamacare: "This Law Is Working" | Video | RealClearPolitics
3-30-14
DAVID PLOUFFE, DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST: The law's working. And this was a seminal achievement. You're going to have -- by the way, if you count people who are going directly to private insurance companies, Medicaid, children's health care, we're talking well more than 10 million people have health care, tens of millions of more have security.
And the politics of this are tough. They will always be tough. I think they'll get better over time. This law is working. And I think the Republican playbook of just repeal ObamaCare, repeal ObamaCare, repeal ObamaCare gets tougher as more and more people get health care. I think smart Republicans understand that.
