I agree with Senator Bayh that health care needs reformed not replaced. The 1990 page bill I just perused is exactly what I thought it might be and not a viable solution to the problem.

As a person who is just a few years removed from working poor it is my experience that programs for the uninsured, working poor and indigient are adequate, the safety net is already in place. Now that I am doing better financially I resent any legislation that would take away my freedom to choose.

As a staunch Republican I respect Senator Bayhs common sense stance on these issues. He has shown courage in the face of great political pressure and I will certainly split my ticket and support the Senator as my contribution to the process. Thank You

Bayh is bought and sold by the insurance industry. We know what he is, the only question is what is his price.

The only thing you support is the insurance cartel making obscene profits and not seeing any competition.

The tragedy here is that you and millions of others are too dim to see you are being played like a fiddle.

My BCBS basic premiums are reasonable. The care decisions for my family are made by myself and my doctor.

When I was working poor I acceepted the care offered by Medicaire the VA and charity because I had no choice.

Senator Bayh has taken a very reasonalbe common sense approach to the issue.

He will get my vote and Im glad I let him know.

Liberal power grabs are screaming "the sky is falling"

So you believe charity is the answer, when in fact, there CAN be another reasonably priced choice?

I've always wanted to ask this: What is wrong with you people?

Not only that but his wife is on the board and works for the insurance industry and, if insurance were ever be sold across state lines, Indiana is probably where many of them would end up because it is a state with almost no regulation of the insurance industry (sort of why all the credit cards you have come from Delaware and South Dakota).

I most certainly am. I also voted for Clinton in his 2nd term because I thought he and the Republican congress were doing a good job. Ive split my ticket for Democrats several times over the years.

I dont think you have to be a ticket puller to be considered "staunch". I guess its a matter of interpretation.

Anyway Im glad to be living in a state whos population Elect men like Mike Pence, Evan Bayh, Govenor Daniels and

Obama
