If she was willing to play for the other team, there are some companies that give benefit coverage to the unmarried domestic partners (roommates) of homosexual employees.

This has been going on for years. I know a woman working in DC that did this, and I know a woman in California right now ‘looking’.

Michael Moore did a skit on that theme in ‘Sicko’. Not original.
Maybe this is a bright side to uninsured. Promote marriage. Here in MD same sex partners have to be provided their domestic partners insurance as if married.

One of the news interviews I seen with her she said she decided to do it when Scott Brown won - because he dashed all hopes she would ever get any help. Made me want to hurl.

We need pictures to make such a decision.After reading the story, all things considered, I doubt she will get many takers.

weren’t these people the same ones signing-up for “MarryaCanadian.com” when GW Bush got re-elected?
To: biggien
No picture of the bride to be, whats up? Says she is 45 and uninsurable. No mention of what she brings to the marriage. Wonder why the last guy divorced her? Funny, the questions the press never asks?
To: b4its2late
Her pre-existing condition would need to be huge knockers .

maybe Andrew Breitbart needs to send the hidden camera crew out there to some singles bars.

On that same news interview I saw she showed the box containing all the medication bottles she took. The box was twice the size of a shoe box. This woman has more problems than no husband and no health insurance.
