Axelrod: White House Didn't Coordinate With Reporter On Question


David Axelrod, who serves as President Obama's chief adviser appeared on "Meet the Press" this Sunday. Axelrod said that the White House didn't coordinate with a reporter what question Obama would be asked. He said they knew the reporter had the ability to communicate with the Iranians and wanted to use him.


Axelrod called the reporter a "vehicle" to get questions from Iranians. Axelrod said he had "no problem" with what occurred and would do it again. Axelrod said that a health care reform bill will pass this year and he expects to get some of Democrats that voted against the energy bill to vote for a public health care option. Axelrod concludes that the public wants a government option.
