(32,139 posts)As I predicted, we are seeing movement on the social issues the One Percent could not care less about. However, Third Way Democrat Terry McAuliffe is now backtracking on all his talk during the gubernatorial campaign about expanding Medicaid through the budget.
He is now backtracking like a Third Way corporatist and saying that he wants to work with Republicans instead,...so Medicaid expansion remains a distant hope for change in the future for Virginians.....again.
People. Are. Going. To. Die.

(56,177 posts)Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
