Another reason I don’t like Hilary Clinton -
The government cannot take on providing everyone with maditory healthcare. Her argument that the government should push for closer, more tax-provided universal healthcare is not grounded in reason. We simply cannot pay for it and balance the budget as she claims we can.
Barack’s answer is somewhat manageable, but I’m not sure how he’s going to force lower healthcare costs. That’s a freaking greedy and established industry. They’d raise rates two more times this year if they thought they could squeeze us for even more money.
Barack Obama was pretty good at defending himself from Clinton’s weak attacks. She seemed half-hearted in this debate, as if she’s ready to concede. I don’t think Obama attacked Clinton once. He merely laughed off all her accusations and attempts to goad him into saying something he’d regret.
They both did a good job, though. They sounded more rational than McCain (who is broiled in a shitstorm and stuck on wasteful spending policies of our present Administration) and Huckabee (who won’t stop talking about God) from a week ago.
