The Washington Postโ€™s Bob Woodward had some fun at the expense of former Obama senior adviser David Axelrod as he tried to both defend the presidentโ€™s health-care lawโ€™s performance this month and downplay efforts to replace Vice President Joe Biden with Hillary Clinton during the 2012 election. Axelrod argued that โ€œdue diligenceโ€ required looking into the possibility of bringing in Clinton.

โ€œWe tested everything โ€” that was our job,โ€ Axelrod said on Meet the Press.

โ€œEverything but Obamacare,โ€ Woodward quipped.
