[OmmmSweetOmmm]

1. Good, I'm glad someone's going after the Republicans nt

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

2. She is saying that McCain's plan would deny her as well as McCain for their pre-existing

conditions!!!

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

4. McCain's truly awful health care plan!

[annabanana]

3. Good for her. Not even McCain would qualify for McCains health plan.

He's got pre existing conditions... like most of us over 18.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

5. Oh Geeze! They have Bill Bennett on now to challenge what she said, and he couldn't so GEMattie

changed the subject about Obama/Hillary.

:rofl:

[qanda]

6. Well, that was a flop!

Meredith kept trying to bring her back to the differences between the Edwards/Clinton and Obama healthcare plans. She barely got to talk about McCain's lame plan.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

8. But she did say that it was awful! That's enough for info for most people and that McSame couldn't

even qualify for it!

9. I loved it when she pointed out that McCain had "government" health insurance coverage!

Free market, be damned!

God, I love this woman. She is doing more to tear McCain down, in a "nice" cool way, than anybody else. SOMEBODY in the Dem Party had to do and bless her heart for stepping up!

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

14. I have said this all along at about Elizabeth, she is Magnificent! Always, in all ways.

[CTyankee]

10. I have to give some credit to Joe S. here for having her on and letting her

say her piece about McCain's lame plan. Joe seemed to actually LIKE her (not that it is so difficult to like Elizabeth Edwards)!

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

12. Was she on with with Joe too? I saw her on The Today Show. Meredith Vierra interviewed her.

[CTyankee]

15. Yup. I'm glad I caught it because I don't watch the Today Show.

Joe didn't argue or snark at Elizabeth. He was really decent, so I will watch him, unless he gets out of line.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

16. I am so happy that they gave her this much airtime today. I usually don't turn on Morning Joe unless

someone gives a head-up here about something going on there.

[CTyankee]

17. I guess I am prepared for the worst when I tune in his show, so I am

pleased when he is genial and respectful. I think, tho, that he genuinely likes and admires Elizabeth, a strong woman...

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

18. She is also so charming in her straight forwardness. I remember Tweety being tongue-tied with her.

[CTyankee]

19. I think I remembered that interview. Back last year when John was still in the race.

She has a natural stutter and I think people draw back and give her time to finish her statements, rather than steamrolling over her. I'll give Tweety credit for that...

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

7. Yesterday, Elizabeth wrote a great article about McSame's plan. For those who haven't

read it, here's the link

11. McSame Wants To Eliminate Employer Provided Healthcare

He wants to tax employee healthcare benefit plans in order to move the public towards people buying their healthcare plans on their own.

McSame's healthcare plan would explode the number of uninsured which will increase health care costs in the end.

13. The "maverick" is a Corporatist tool.
