He put his foot in that one. Interesting that his point was that the private sector could still thrive with the public option. Of course that depends on how the rules are written. UPS isn't allowed to deliver mail by law. The rules can be written to kill the private sector immediately or changed later to kill it. He inadvertently reminded people of the the post office versus private package delivery, however. Everybody knows what works there, and that was not a comparison he should have raised. Big mistake. Not sure why lefties think this guy is gifted.

The Seinfeld episode comes to mind where Jerry delivers the mail for Newman but the plan is foiled because Jerry delivers the mail on time and to the right addresses and it becomes obvious that it was not the work of a postal employee.

Big mistake indeed! I also liked how he said people can keep their own private insurance, they don't have to worry, they won't have to stand in line.

Perhaps the racists on the Left think he's "gifted" for an immigrant?
