Default No, You Can't Keep Your Health Plan

Read 'em and weep: just like the Republicans warned...it is coming true. It's great news for all of those who want a Soviet-style healthcare system, complete with long lines and high mortality rates.

I'm shocked and to think premiums are going to increase especially for the individual market. Next we'll find out that people are refusing to pay for insurance, paying the government fine (or not), still receiving care thru the ER room and the WSJ will argue for a chunk of the population it makes financial sense. Somehow this has to be Cheney's fault.

Yeah, insurance companies are jumping through hoops to try and screw the consumer. That's Obama's fault. LOL.

What's that I hear? A whistle?

Yawn.

What did you think, Riot, that your fearless leader was soooo smart, that he convinced the insurance companies to continue as an unprofitable enterprise?

This is the real world. Things don't work that way.

I will look at the possitive and take to heart the fact many of the 'old guard' on the left side of the aisle will be gone forever because of her fearless leader. But she'll at least have Rand Paul.

Probably only until November. Your hope should be that Mongiardo wins, because I doubt Paul can win - even in KY - against MoveOn's financing of Conway.

PS - Happy Birthday!

Hope you had a great birthday day (and night)!

Change indeed - hard to predict where this will go in November:

In KY they go far right, Tea Party Paul wins (forcing GOP further right)
In PA voters go far left, progressive Sestak beats Specter
In AK voters for further left, progressive Halter forces runoff (and predicted to win) with Lincoln
In UT, they go further right, getting rid of Bennett

i don't live in alaska! lol
lincoln/halter are in AR and it's not so much a vote for halter as a vote against lincoln-this state may move many ways, but to the left isn't one of them.

"Dr. Gottlieb, a former official at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, is a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and a practicing internist. He's partner to a firm that invests in health-care companies."

Gee I wonder if a man who has an investment in health-care companies...would also have an investment in making Obama look bad.

I think I'd trust the opinion of a more non-partial observer.
