” NOT ONE SINGLE Democrat (candidate or otherwise) is defending “healthcare” or “stimulus.” “
Of course not. Do you expect them to commit political suicide?

Wiki says it was a Democrat who said it.
“U.S. Senator Josiah Bailey (D-NC) released a “Conservative Manifesto” in December 1937,[1] which included several statements of conservative philosophical tenets, including the line “Give enterprise a chance, and I will give you the guarantees of a happy and prosperous America.”
“Conservative Manifesto”
“However, the Southern Democrats controlled the entire south with only token Republican opposition, and thus had both liberal and conservative factions. While the South had many New Deal supporters it also had many conservative Southern Democrats strongly opposed to the plan. Among their leaders were Senators Harry Byrd and Carter Glass of Virginia and Vice-President John Nance Garner of Texas. U.S. Senator Josiah Bailey (D-NC) released a “Conservative Manifesto” in December 1937,[1] which included several statements of conservative philosophical tenets, including the line “Give enterprise a chance, and I will give you the guarantees of a happy and prosperous America.” The document called for a balanced federal budget, state’s rights, and an end to labor union violence and coercion.[1] Over 100,000 copies were distributed and it marked a turning point in terms of congressional support for New Deal legislation.[1]”
Hard to figure the author’s intentions.
