Axelrod: Paul Ryan Does Not Believe In Medicare

Obama campaign senior adviser David Axelrod said Sunday that Paul Ryan is against Medicare, period.

“They do not believe in Medicare,” he said on ABC’s “This Week.” “Let’s be clear. Congressman Ryan is an ideologue who doesn’t believe in the Medicare program, wanted to do away with it. Newt Gingrich called it ‘right-wing social engineering’ when [Ryan] surfaced his Medicare plan, and he was right about that.”
