1 | [on what has been termed 'ObamaCare'] The idea of it becoming his first-term priority was a throwaway line when his speech writers realized he was having to speak to an important health-care constituency group in 2007. He didn't have a plan so he gave them a promise. And now his legacy is, I think, connected to the success or failure of health care reform for the next decade. |
