Former US president Bill Clinton on Thursday told fellow Democrats threatening to sink President Barack Obama's health care bill that they risk a "colossal blunder."
"Allowing this effort to fall short now would be a colossal blunder -- both politically for our party and, far more important, for the physical, fiscal and economic health of our country," he said in a statement.
Clinton was responding to another Democratic heavyweight, former party chairman Howard Dean, who called Thursday on Democrats to kill the health care reform bill, one of Obama's biggest priorities. AFP
