James Carville to Imus: Obama Only Has Himself to Blame for ‘Awful’ Rollout (Mediaite)

Appearing on FBN’s Imus in the Morning on Thursday, James Carville suggested that President Obama has nobody but himself to blame for the “awful” rollout of the Affordable Care Act.

Reacting to Obama’s broken “keep your healthcare plan” promise, Carville said, “He could have said it a lot more elegantly than he did,” but that the president’s woes are “all self-inflicted.”

“I think this rollout, which I think they got to get right, was a disaster, it was a joke,” he continued. “And there was a way to talk about, you know, how many people would get to keep their health insurance in a way that wasn’t causing this much trouble. I’m one of the few people who have believed, and continue to believe, that in the end this thing will work pretty good.”
