That is a great roundup, DCBlogger
But what conclusions, if any, do you draw?
[x] Any (D) in the general. [ ] Any mullah-sucking billionaire-teabagging torture-loving pus-encrusted spawn of Cthulhu, bless his (R) heart.
not sure
I am not sure I would draw any conclusions. A round up such as this allows everyone to discover each other.
I am considering doing this on a daily basis.
conclusion is simple: universal single payer is the winning
issue any candidate could ride to power upon. not that i’m arguing the blogosphere is ’representative’ of the general public will, but as “an issue people are talking about,” health care is at the top of the list.
for a long time now, i’ve been pretty sure that an insurance industry led “harry and lousie” campaign would fail today, if a progressive national plan were put forward. i could be wrong, and neither of the candidates is proposing such, but i wonder what it would take to make that change. perhaps a lot of money from the industry that best stood to profit from the demise of for-profit insurance.
TransAfrica
i wonder what it would take to make that change.dignified acts of civil disobediance, such as TransAfrica used to change our policy towards the old apartheid South Africa.
