Is this probably GOP ad a deal breaker??????

A clip of Holt asking who would abolish private health insurance and Elizabeth Warren's hand shooting up.

What do you think? I'm torn.

people have a choice.

Otherwise, OP is right that voters are going to balk at what amounts to cramming Medicare down the throats of those who aren’t sure they want it.

Too many people just don’t get they will be better off. If Medicare is as good as we think, people will gravitate to it quickly with Public Option.

Taking insurance away from folks is a losing proposition...and undocumented healthcare thing is bad too sure I think it is the decent and smart thing to do but it won't play well during an election...and they all raised their hands...
