Thanks for your post. I saw the same segment and am impressed by your ability to remember it so well. Good reporting and good assessments on your part! McCain and Huckabee did not sound very Republican, or conservative, in that segment. I expect, or at least hope for, a free market orientation. I value your insights in your last three paragraphs. A Free Republic highpoint.
Gee, that was nice of you. However, I did take notes during the debate, it wasn’t all from memory.
Mitt is blasted here for his Mass plan, but at least he showed some recognition of what the average working person faces re healthcare and did something about it. And that something brought down the costs in that state.
I think we all wish for a free market solution, though. Once government gets into something, you’re not going to get it out.
