I think there's a groundswell of outrage and desire for change, on the part of ordinary voters, that could propel a candidate right into the White House, if any of them are smart enough to capitalize on it.Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00540884672406337833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19802617.post-35240516541326627932007-05-14T12:13:00.000-04:002007-05-14T12:13:00.000-04:00It will be interesting to see what impact this iss...It will be interesting to see what impact this issue will make in the 2008 pres election...and then even mor einteresting to see how much is passed by Congress by 2010.Stushiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693178228505134028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19802617.post-70719073533407298572007-05-13T17:51:00.000-04:002007-05-13T17:51:00.000-04:00So glad I checked into your blog today.

Have you ever considered running for public office? ;) No, no - don't do that!!! But this sort of logic should somehow make its way to the legislative halls. -RobinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19802617.post-61948884201685417752007-05-12T09:07:00.000-04:002007-05-12T09:07:00.000-04:00BRILLIANT!!!BRILLIANT!!!Tom Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11788054294444777398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19802617.post-37223821773424470532007-05-11T10:52:00.000-04:002007-05-11T10:52:00.000-04:00Sad but true situation with those who have no heal...Sad but true situation with those who have no health insurance - We have a dear friend who has to use charity care at her hospital and often waits months to get a specialist appointment.
