Elizabeth Edwards and Clinton Health Plan

[emilyg]

alking healthcare, slamming John McCain's plan some more (keep it coming, Mrs. Edwards!) and advocating Clinton's plan over Obama's, undercutting Obama's claim that his provides universal coverage. Notice how she echoes Clinton when she questions why Obama has a mandate for just children, but not for everyone.


SCARBOROUGH: Which plan is better? Which plan covers more Americans? The Clinton plan or the Obama plan?

EDWARDS: In my view, the Clinton plan provides, because it provides a mandate. It means every American has to be covered. Senator Obama means every child has to be covered. I think we need to go the full nine yards and make certain we have -- I'm not very good at cliches, is that the cliche. It ought to be ten yards, wouldn't it?

SCARBOROUGH: Well, not if it's fourth and nine.

9. Ok..........

.......Obama's health plan is decent because it is not a bonus plan for the insurance companies as is Hillary's. Hillary is a decent liar, but goes too far and that causes her to get caught in monster lies.

Happy now?

3. Edwards is pleased Hillary is using it. Catch up on the news and stop the whining.

4. Isn't Obama's plan partly ripped off of the right-wing Heritage Foundation?

10. That's odd. I was sure some HRC supporters were saying it was a ripoff of her plan.

Whoah. :eyes:

11. I love Elizabeth Edwards but IMO mandates are a non-starter in congress

12. Don't expect any reasonable contribution from the Glitterbabies

Honestly, we could write their responses. They must have to go through a course to get it exactly right.

Thanks for posting this. I hadn't read it, and didn't see it.
