6. California Dems passed a state single payer - Hillary fought for it in 93 before there was a
"task force" but Bill said no way as he thought the insurance companies would defeat such a bill and thus defeat universal health. So she is doing it piecemeal with a new bill to add 6 million kids to federal medical care.

Obama has refused to go against the insurance companies and indeed appears afraid of stating a new specific idea - but he has said he was for Hillary's bill.

"Employment based" is the new code word for GOP/insurance company approved subsidy for insurance companies so as to have forced mandatory purchase of insurance company product, with subsidy for the poor and penalty as in assessment for employers not willing to buy group health policy from the insurance companies for their employees.

7. Here is Guilliani s thought--C_Span
You have to vote for Republicans, rather vote for me
Democrats will bring Socialized Medicine. Democrats will
bring Socialized Medicine.

Guilliani cannot stir up the base on God Guns Gays Race.
He holds the wrong positions in his party.
He is running against the Democratic Party. Our Party
had better be ready to counter. He is trying to attract
Independents, Dems and Repubs. This is the Primary not
general election.
