House majority whip Jim Clyburn takes the pulse of health care reform
House Majority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) joins us with the very latest on the contentious health care reform bill that will likely see a vote in Congress later this week.
Although Clyburn recently told NBC’s Meet the Press that he was ?very confident that we will get this done,? House and Senate Democrats have thus far failed to build the coalition of progressives and moderates necessary to pass the sweeping reform bill.
Clyburn joins us for a behind-the-scenes look at the current state of negotiations and the source of his newfound legislative confidence.
