The Spectacle Blog
From the Washington Post's article on Hillary Clinton's proposal:
Now, with states such as
Massachusetts mandating universal care and even Republicans
such as California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger pushing similar
initiatives, Clinton's proposal is not as
politically daunting as it might have been even four years
ago.
Again, by ceding so much ground to liberals, Romney's Massachusetts plan has made it much more likely that we'll see a Hillary-style healthcare plan at the national level.
Andrew Cline, on our main site, was more forgiving of Romney.
