RedState’s Erick Erickson tweeted this could be the moment when Mitt Romney lost the election. In an interview of Fox News, Romney Press Secretary Andrea Saul decided to invoke Romneycare as a counterpoint to the despicable narrative being pushed by Priorities USA.

Sylvie Deslongchamps is dying of cervical cancer and wonders if things would have been different if someone had just made a phone call. In early 2007, Deslongchamps, 46, went to Charles-Lemoyne Hospital, in Longeuil Que. for a check-up and Pap smear with her new gynecologist. "I had a little concern," says Deslongchamps.

Without giving me a reason, in April 2002, the card company notified me that my card would not be renewed after the expiration date, I was instructed to destroy the card, and the balance owed was being transferred to another card company. Two months AFTER closing my account, Gevalia coffee billed my card for an UNauthorized coffee shipment. Rather...
