She was the State insurance Commissioner in Kansas before becoming governor, apparently a family business. <br /><br />No medical experience, no experience as someone who actually has to worry about insurance, and nothing other than political ideology to point her the way to go. <br /><br />Seems to me that the Republicans don't need to overturn the law as much as they need to replace the head of HHS. And then the other side can do the same thing 4 years later, good luck figuring out your benefits then.Woodmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17258502914515356626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11628754.post-7715517015486229182012-04-07T09:43:17.857-04:002012-04-07T09:43:17.857-04:00A new Washington Post-ABC News poll shows that sup...<i>A new Washington Post-ABC News poll shows that support for a government-run health-care plan to compete with private insurers has rebounded from its summertime lows and wins clear majority support from the public.</i><br /><br />--<a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/10/19/AR2009101902451.html" rel="nofollow">WaPo, Oct. 10, 2009.</a>Erin O'Brienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09089592061725346901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11628754.post-75218856325724951602012-04-05T16:10:57.232-04:002012-04-05T16:10:57.232-04:002 The immensely popular "public option" ...2 The immensely popular "public option" will rise from the ashes sooner rather than later, probably in the form of a Medicare expansion.<br /><br />Popular? and who would this immensely crowd happen to be?
