The insurance industry does not oppose the Exchange, they DEMAND it. They do not oppose the individual...

Let's Hope Doug Pike Doesn't Screw Up The Dems' Best Shot In Pennsylvania With Sleazy Campaign Tactics

Conventional wisdom has it that the best shot at a Democratic pick-up in Pennsylvania is the suburban district west of Philly made up of parts of Berks, Chester and Montgomery counties. One of Pennsylvania's wealthiest areas, and once a dependably Republican redoubt, PA-06 has been trending bluer and bluer. Where Gore only managed to beat Bush by the tiniest handful of votes, Kerry took the district...

It's No Accident that "Stupak" Looks a Lot Like "Stupid"

Two of my favorite organizations, the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice and Planned Parenthood are holding a National Day of Action today to lobby the Senate for health care reform that ensures women’s access to reproductive health care.
