James Carville – Losing Healthcare Court Fight is “Best Thing for Democratic Party”

James Carville, the Democrat strategist who worked on the Bill Clinton campaign, had a very interesting take on the current Supreme Court case involving the President’s healthcare law.

According to Carville, having the Supreme Court vote down the bill will be great for Democrats, not so good for Republicans.

“I think this will be the best thing that has ever happened to the Democratic Party,” Carville said Tuesday on CNN’s “The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer.”

He added: “You know, what the Democrats are going to say, and it is completely justified, ‘We tried, we did something, go see a 5-4 Supreme Court majority’.”

Carville, who gained fame working on Bill Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaign, predicted health care costs will only increase in the future, in which case Republicans will be to blame for leading the drive to expel a federal program designed to help Americans cover those costs.

“Then the Republican Party will own the healthcare system for the foreseeable future. And I really believe that. That is not spin,” Carville said.
