On Tuesday’s “AC360 Later” on CNN, political blogger Andrew Sullivan told host Anderson Cooper that President Obama’s “deep laziness” might be why Obamacare’s rollout has gone so poorly.

“When Obama was asked once what his basic deepest flaw was, he said, ‘deep laziness.’ And I wonder whether this is not the equivalent of that first debate last year. The guy just didn’t focus — playing too much golf,” said Sullivan, a normally stalwart defender of the president.

Obama had originally mentioned his own “deep laziness” in a 2011 interview with ABC’s Barbara Walters.
