He thought he had Rubio corned about ObamaCare. But he wasn't prepared for this response!



(Charlie) Rose to Rubio on PBS: 'What's the Best Thing You Can Say' About ObamaCare?

Rose tried to push supportive spin on the unpopular policy: "In terms of accessibility, in terms of – it has not been as – I mean, the projected costs have not been as bad as they assumed." Rubio countered: "They've not been as good as they proclaimed either."

Rose pressed: "Yeah, but have been less than was assumed." Rubio explained:
But the costs really are bearing out on the consumer side as well. Because for example, people thought, "Okay, now I'm going to have this free health insurance, and by the way, I'm going to get a subsidy for it." And then they realized that before they can even begin to use that insurance, they've got to come with $4,000 as part of their deductible. So they're really not insured.
