"I was visiting with some lawmakers last night in Washington.
We talked a lot about health care when I was visiting them. I asked
them, did they have a problem running on it? There does seem to be,
for some reason, a reluctance by Democrats to run home and talk
about how positive this health care law is. And I find that very
interesting. The moral aspect of this, the moral component to this
— and when you talk to them about voting to take something away
from another American, it does resonate with people. If you're
doing statistics, you know, you're not going to win that battle,
but if you talk about people's lives and the moral component, who
can argue with it? It's almost like there's a lack of confidence,
like they're not sure this is the right thing to do in front of
constituents."

So. Appeals to emotion trumps statistics and facts, huh?
I thought liberals were the 'rational' and 'logical' ones.
In his mind, it doesn't matter we waste money and no need following up on checking with the results because the intentions are what counts.
