WASHINGTON — Tom Daschle told former Senate colleagues on Thursday that as health secretary he would learn from former President Bill Clinton's failed attempt to overhaul health care, an effort criticized as too long, secretive and hard to understand.
"These are good arguments for undertaking reform in a way that is aggressive, open and responsive to Americans' concerns," Daschle said at a hearing. "They are not good arguments for ignoring the problem."
