Bill Clinton: 'Teabaggers Inflamed' 'Cause We're Winning

Bill Clinton: 'Teabaggers Inflamed' 'Cause We're Winning

In the push for health care legislation, a new yet familiar face emerged on Capitol Hill today in an attempt to rally Democrats -- former President Bill Clinton.
 
Clinton, who himself unsuccessfully sought to overhaul the nation's health care system 15 years ago, met today with Senate Democrats during their weekly caucus meeting and urged them to come to a compromise on health care legislation.
 
"This is an economic imperative," Clinton told reporters following the closed-door meeting.
 
Clinton spoke to Democratic leaders about the importance of passing a bill and said there is no such thing as perfect legislation. The "worst option is doing nothing," Clinton said repeatedly.
 
The former president was asked to give a pep talk by White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who has been relatively mum on the contents of the Senate bill.
