As I predicted, we are seeing movement on the social issues the One Percent could not care less about. However, Third Way Democrat Terry McAuliffe is now backtracking on all his talk during the gubernatorial campaign about expanding Medicaid through the budget.

He is now backtracking like a Third Way corporatist and saying that he wants to work with Republicans instead,...so Medicaid expansion remains a distant hope for change in the future for Virginians.....again.

People. Are. Going. To. Die.
