Snyderman: ObamaCare 'Going So Well' Till Hijacked By 'Lies'

Of all the Obama cheerleaders in the MSM, could there possibly be one more devoted than Dr. Nancy? On her MSNBC show today, Snyderman bemoaned to a White House aide that the push for ObamaCare had been "going so well" till it was hijacked by rumors, innuendoes and "lies."

Snyderman was chatting with White House advisor Melody Barnes, who didn't seem to take the possible defeat as hard as did her host . . .

NANCY SNYDERMAN: Melody, it was all going so well. It was all on track.  The president went to Europe and--honest to God--I could feel sitting in this chair, that the energy sucked, just sort of went out of the whole thing.  And then, frankly, the rumors, the innuendoes, the half-truths, the mistruths, the frank lies, have they all hijacked the conversation?  So if it's stability and reassuring the American public, how do you address those sort of hot-button issues that frankly I think need to be reframed?  How do you take something like the public option and give it a new name?
Yeah, that's the ticket.  All we need to do is come up with a new name for the public option.  Readers, any helpful suggestions for Dr. Nancy? Share this
