Let’s revisit the reason McCain lost for a moment
indulge me if you will…but first you need to read
todays op ed in the NYTimes in which Mitt Romney
lays out in clear an unambiguous terms why the big
3 auto makers should file chapter 11..in a controlled
bankruptcy..this piece was written by Mitt himself..
I knew it was submitted two days ago…no one
ghost wrote it for him….Had he been on the ticket
as VP instead of Palin…this kind of clear thoughtful
market oriented conversation would have taken
place when the market fell apart 6 WEEKS BEFORE
ELECTION…Romney had it over Palin, Biden, and the
PResident Elect himself on this issue..and he would
have delivered Michigan….and Ohio..right next door
and possibly florida…the election would have been
totally different..whether or not McCain would have
won is anyones guess…but the 20% of voters who
said that Palin negatively affected their choice
for president would not exist.

I’m sure Ted grabbed the first available semi-educated socialist Haitian surgeon for his brain operation. Or, are those the guys they plan to assign to us?

Oh hell, how many people on this post have actually read the working papers from Hillary’s task force?

Way back then, my boss was an official observer of the task force-and the papers he returned to the office would turn your hair white, provided you could understand the nuances in them.

Now based on my memory of what I saw and what was discussed, I remember the following mentioned in the working papers-it may have changed (and it never happened) but:

The Federal Government would choose a pool of doctors for you (a small pool) if your doctor isn’t in it too bad. If you want to keep your doctor (someone who isn’t in the pool) it is at your own expense. But here is the kicker, if your doctor accepts you as a patient-he loses all his federal money and cannot accept federal patients (unless they pay privately).

Back then it seemed like anyone who bucked the system was (pardon my language) SCREWED!

That was one of many scary things proposed in the papers.

Oh yeah, let’s have Hillary in charge of health care. She did such a great job on it for Billy Boy back in ‘93. Flashback: She was a disaster.

John Foster Dulles for Secretary of State. I think he later started Dominos Pizza. At least, that’s the theory.

She is a good choice to chair a group of health covera/e. Americans deserve Universal Healthcare. Many Americans do not have coverage we are the riches country in the world we all deserve the same coverage. Stop the talk. In January the Democrats should pass it.

Hillary should definitely stay in the senate..she is not
a foreign affairs expert…her husband is…she has disagreed with Obama on the war, on meeting foreign leaders
without pre conditions.and said that she and McCain were
qualified and Obama gave a speech..surely Colin Powell
or someone else should be secretary of state..even
John Kerry would be a better choice…not to mention
the worldwide conflicts that her husband probably has going
in terms of his foundation and his 300,000 per hour lectures
