13. The program is on here now and I didn't hear what you heard
Dean said that the bill was changed since he first spoke out about it. And he thinks it can become better in conference. So he's willing to wait to comment on the final result. But as it stands he refuted some of Axelrod's assertions.

I'm particularly sensitive to the fact that older people can be charged a lot more for insurance. Since husband and I have several years to go before we're eligible for Medicaid - we are going to get hosed and Dean pointed out that fact.

He was quite emphatic as he has been in the past about how the bill is better but has a long way to go. He continued to say that we needed a Medicare for all system if we really wanted reform.

I think you're spinning.
