Heard most of his remarks. I'd call it a ground rule double. Coulda been a home run if he had said "Let's be clear that President Obama just spent the last eighteen months defending the largest tax increase in American history. He says it's not a tax, but his admin defended it as such before the Supreme Court, and they agreed that it is a tax. Anything he tells you otherwise is a lie."
There's still plenty of time to hammer your point - correct point that it is.
The edited message rang clear, however.
"If you don't want Obamacare, you've got to get rid of Obama."
Short, succinct, to the point.
