jon: joe trippe was howard dean's campaign manager and a fox news contributor. when you have a popular former president like bill clinton weighing in and saying, hey, you know, the administration ought to let people, you know, do what they promise and let people keep their health plans if they like them, what does that do to obamacare? >> well, the president may -- they may actually do that over time. we don't know what they're going to do yet. we don't know if the sight is going to be working toward the end of november but i think the president may very well take bill clinton's advice and find a way to reassure those americans and keep that promise. jon: but jamie, he's been telling everybody, oh, you know, if you lose your health care plan, it's only because we're going to give you something better. >> right and what people are finding out, the stories that are coming out is they're not getting something better. they're getting something more expensive and often that has a higher deductible. you know, that famous story last week in the "wall street journal" ab

fox news contributor joe tripy and ed rawlins joins us for a fair and balanced debate. welcome to you both. if the president didn't know this was the case when he made the roomses, first of all, there were memos out there. there was information that the administration knew this would happen. can he claim innocence? and if he didn't know, shouldn't he have as the president? >> i think he knew. >> was he lying then? >> well, that's what many republicans will call it, lying. clearly 96% -- i mean some number like 96% fall into what he was saying. if you like it, kahn keep it. you can keep it. you are getting coverage you never had. there are 4, 5, 6% somewhere in that number, could be as low as 2% who, yes, are going to have their policies canceled. >> period. >> period. you know, it is clear that the complete truth of -- he said 100%. >> he said guaranteed, 100%. >> >> that was wrong. had he said 96% or most of you, but he didn't do that. the attacks are -- you have to take the hit if you made the promise. >> would you ever caution a nominee or a president to say you can'

joining us joe trippi, former howard dean campaign manager, also a fox news contributor. albatross for those democrats running in november, joe? >> well they're sure hoping it won't be but we, frankly, jon, we won't know for a while yet. november is still a long way away. look, if all these problems are still persisting, if people are losing health care, if premiums are going up, there is no doubt about it, 2014 is going to be a very tough and bad year for democrats and if it continues, so will 2016 for whoever the democratic nominee is. on the other hand, if the web site's actually fixed and working on november 30th, then i understand the skepticism there, but if it is, and if people, the things that the president claims are going to happen, that people, more people are getting health care that didn't have it, people, even people who are losing their plans, are getting into better plans that they appreciate, if all those things start to happen, then, it could be a completely story. so we, we don't know yet but clearly, yes, people are worried in the democratic party. of c
