OMG this is it!!! Can Getting Medicaid On State Ballots Save The Senate For Dems?

Just as an aside, there are lots of people who would qualify who don't want to be on Medicaid--my son is one of them. Did you know that the assets of Medicaid recipients can be attached and taken? For now, it's only upon death. For now . . .
