'Healthcare, whether you like it or not, it’s our signature issue'

The Empire | Mar 29, 2012

The former Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe has some counter-intuitive advice for Democrats. Talk about healthcare.

Here’s his exchange on Morning Joe:

Joe Scarborough:
We’re seeing polls show Democrats even in trouble in New York State. It’s the front page of the New York Times today, [Senator] Gillibrand only ahead only by six points against a guy that three-fifths of the state doesn’t even know…

Terry McAuliffe:
[Democrats] have to defend what we’ve done. Healthcare, whether you like it or not, it’s our signature issue the Democrats have. Talk about it. You did it…Be proud of it. You did it and here are the benefits you get for it.
