I just wanted to put this out there: Carolyn Maloney is all for Single Payer. She's been a co-sponsor for HR 676 since 2004.
Representative Carolyn B. Maloney became a cosponsor of H.R. 676 on 5/5/2004.
She subsequently renewed that commitment to Health Care for All with single-payer national health insurance in 2005 and 2007.
So - anyone out there questioning her cred on this topic can stuff it. She's not trying to obstruct or weaken public option - she's just not going to sign something she may not hold up to. Forgive her for not going nuclear on the chance that progress might still be had.
I have to say, alot of Gillebrand supporters sound like nerds after the head cheerleader flirted with them to get their votes for prom queen.
I hate to compare the two, but the supporters of Gillibrand sound alot like the Palin supporters. I guess Kristin does like Greta Van Sustern, too.
