If you are from Belmont MA and were there when Mitt was Governor of MA, you should remember, or look it up. Your current poor excuse for a Governor and the late Ted Rummy Kennedy got together as soon as Duval got into office ... and changed the healthcare plan to suit their own agenda. Hopefully Mitt Romney will reveal that fact during his campaign, and not be such a man about it that he let's that ball roll away. In the link below, Deval lauds (his) the Massachusetts Affordable Healthcare Act ...

Deval Patrick and Ted Kennedy were the scourge of MA.

Remember also, that Deval and Barack Hussein Obama hail from the same hood ... the South Side of Chicago, and are good friends.

I've heard that many times but what exactly did those two change? I thought Romney was a pretty poor governor, although I'd take him back in a heartbeat over what's there now.

One thing the article fails to mention is how our premiums have risen faster than any state in the nation and are possibly now the highest. So so much for reducing costs for te rest of us.

Sadly.


And oh yeah if it was him vs. Obama in the general election, then by all means I would. Again, sadly.

Agreed, MassNative and Lukec. No one said anything about comparing Mitt to all the potential candidates out there. The comparison was Romney vs. Patrick. Even if you view this as choosing the lesser of two evils, which many probably would, if this is the only choice, better the lesser than the greater of two evils.

No it doesn't but this one does.


5 painful health-care lessons from Massachusetts - Jun. 15, 2010

Quote:
When Massachusetts launched its reform program in 2006, it already had the highest medical costs in the nation. Today, the burden is still rising far faster than wages or inflation, from those already lofty levels. A report from that state attorney general in March -- remember, this is a Democratic administration -- asked rhetorically "Can we expect the existing health-care market in Massachusetts to successfully contain health-care costs?" The report concluded, "To date, the answer is an unequivocal 'no."
