they saw through time that the republican attacks on it were lies and liked what it offered.

so saying you will build upon something people already know and like will get more support than something else which so far is lacking in details.

7. Another thought...

This plan probably would be deemed too liberal by Republicans and the media if we didn’t have other plans that were more aggressive. I have a lot of interest in those more aggressive plans, personally, but I also really appreciate that they’re giving cover to expanding the ACA.

8. That is a good point!

I have been worried about the party leaning too left to attract the middle-of-the-road voters in the GE. But they would be relieved to go all-in for the ACA after the more all-encompassing plans that have been featured.

13. Absolutely. The party has been tying one hand behind their backs by starting too low...

...and winding up with less than we should have by triangulating ourselves into a corner with no room to maneuver. This gives us space to wind up with a much better deal.

9. Warren miscalculated Medicare for all

She drank the Bernie Koolaide.

10. i think it's strategic and she is trying to get those who support him

[Hortensis]

12. Agree that's it. Plus, there are 8 MfA versions. Belatedly

announcing "I have a 9th plan for that" might have come off wrong.

I think she made a good decision, and I wish her success in that endeavor.

18. Speaker Pelosi-There's no need to reinvent health care -- just improve Obamacare

I agree with Speaker Pelosi https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/17/nancy-pelosi-no-need-to-reinvent-health-care-improve-obamacare.html?__source=sharebar|twitter&par=sharebar

Democrats should focus on making improvements to Obamacare instead of trying to reinvent the wheel with “Medicare for All,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday.

“God bless” 2020 Democratic presidential candidates putting forth Medicare for All proposals, Pelosi said in an interview with “Mad Money” host Jim Cramer. “But know what that entails.”

Pelosi’s thoughts on how to improve the nation’s health-care laws appear to align with those of former Vice President Joe Biden, who in his 2020 presidential bid is calling for building on provisions of Obamacare, formally known as the Affordable Care Act.

“I believe the path to ‘health care for all’ is a path following the lead of the Affordable Care Act,” Pelosi told Cramer. “Let’s use our energy to have health care for all Americans, and that involves over 150 million families that have it through the private sector.”

19. Sweet Jesus. Defending the ACA won us the house majority in 18.

Keep riding that horse.

20. NBC/WSJ poll shows Biden's healthcare stance (optional Medicare buy-in) much more popular
