Understatement of the day decade.

BARACK OBAMA: So in terms of how I intend to approach it, I’m just going to keep on working as hard as I can around the priorities that the American people care about. And I think it’s legitimate for them to expect me to have to win back some credibility on this health care law in particular and on a whole range of these issues in general.

And, you know, that’s on me. I mean, we fumbled the rollout on this health care law. There are a whole bunch of things about it that are working really well which people didn’t notice, all right, because they weren’t controversial, so making sure kids could stay on their parents’ plans till they were — up through the age of 25, and making sure that seniors got more discounts on their prescription drugs — there were a whole bunch of stuff that we did well over the first three years, but we also knew that these marketplaces — creating a place where people can shop and, through competition, get a better deal for the health insurance that their families need — we always knew that that was going to be complicated, and everybody was going to be paying a lot of attention to it.
