Government shouldn’t be the ogre forcing people to buy insurance under draconian penalties. People want insurance when they can afford it. Young people can be lured in with cheap catastrophic policies. Seniors’ drug costs should be covered above the current $2,250 cutoff. And who could be against computerizing medical records so people don’t get the wrong blood type or drug that will kill them?

And what's wrong to be able to buy drugs - that are cheaper - from Canada.

Margaret Carlson is right on the money.

the profound historical defeat suffered by Democrats in Massachusetts

I don't agree that this was a profound historical defeat. From 1991 to 2007 Massachusetts had 4 consecutive Republican governors.

Ted Kennedy kept winning the Senate seat not because he was a liberal but because he was famous. People like having a famous Senator, it's kind of like having a good sports team in your city. It puts you on the map.
