Health care crisis brings out Jekyl-Hyde in Jeb Bush
The Florida Times-Union


In an e-mail the governor sent to 22,000 of his supporters, Bush targeted state senators who have refused to go along with his pitch for a $250,000 cap on pain and suffering awards in medical malpractice lawsuits.

"Health care in our state," Bush wrote, "is being held hostage by a handful of Republican, yes, Republican senators who may be placing their own ambitions above the values that got them elected as Republicans and, as a result, are jeopardizing people's access to health care. ---

"They need to know," Bush said, "that if they don't support our plan, we'll hold them accountable."

Then on Wednesday Bush told reporters: "The notion that somehow this is my way or the highway just isn't true."

What about Mr. Hyde's e-mail, Dr. Jekyl?
