19. I trust that it’s bad for the health insurance companies; I do not doubt her health care plan.
I don't trust that she will able to pass it, not in its current form, or anything close to it at least. Many of the people in the senate and the house were there when she failed in 1994. Many saw their colleagues lose their seats. They all remember how it was spun by the health insurance companies, and the GOP. Some democratic house and senate members voted against it.

Why would she be able to pass it now, when she failed in 1994, with democratic controlled house and senate?

Why do you think those members will ever risk losing their seats in a 1994 redo?

Hillary's plan might be superior, but it won't pass. I can tell you now, that Obama's plan has to be watered down a lot before it can pass.
