That's false. Ms. Palin herself cited several instances where it did have enough traction to be enacted into law ... without her help.

Several instances accomplished doesn't mean that we don't need more of it. Ms. Palin herself cites what is still needed. I think that's a good thing. Are you suggesting that it isn't?
... without her help.
There you go again :).
# 1. She also sited what they did in Alaska for tort reform with her help.
# 2. While we have had some successes in some states,
tort reform never got enough traction to actually stop frivolous medical malpractice lawsuits across all states in the country, nor did the successes for tort reform go far enough. The fight for tort reform is far from over.
# 3. We are right now fighting against 0bama’s nasty healthcare bill. Tort reform is one of the biggest weapons to be used against 0bamacare, because the # 1 reason why health costs are super high in this country, is because of lawyers.
# 4. The fact that others have fought for tort reform before in this country, doesn't mean Sarah Palin can't fight for tort reform at this time, when we need to fight for tort reform even harder than ever, because of the possible horrors from 0bamacare.
Well up to this point the issue unfortunately hasn't had good enough traction to get it done. .

I've been reading through this thread - oh, give me a break!
We are talking about whether or not tort reform has been a significant part of the current debate on a national level. It has NOT. The libs have not addressed it at all, except by not addressing it, as clearly shown by other posters, above. Conservative leaders have so far failed to even cause a ripple.
Palin's piece is not perfect, true. But Ronald Reagan himself, I am sure, could and probably did on many an occaision go back and critique a lot of his own writings, later. So, I am not so concerned that Palin's piece does not read like it has been written by someone who has been penning "deep" policy articles for decades. What she has done is write an article that gets a specific part of the health care debate out in front of more people, and shown more people who otherwise would hear only the MSM / libs that conservatives DO have some ideas on improving the system. She has done this with an argument / words an average person can understand, and pointed out some specific examples of those ideas having a positive effect (something the Dems cannot do, I would add!)
It's just a little ripple, true. It's not even perfectly concentric. But, at least it's a ripple, and she's willing and able to make it.
I'll take it.
