The Left can argue all it wants, but it still needs to recruit voters.

The Left argues in general that "There are 40 million uninsured! People are dying!" etc., etc.

But the uninsured, as we know do not vote as a bloc.

The elderly do vote much more like a bloc.

And the best, really the only, argument the Left had for them to support fully socialized healthcare was prescription cost.

The Left was depending on them to drive socialized medicine to completion - and now they aren't as exercised about it as they were.

Well....they’ve already recruited Romney who, of course, has pushed even faster for socialization than Bush.
