Monica Wehby is the fast-sinking Republican Senate candidate from Oregon whom BuzzFeed caught last month plagiarizing her Health Plan from a Karl Rove mailer. Well, she scrubbed that plan from her website and put up a new plan, this time plagiarized from her primary opponent, Jason Conger.
From BuzzFeed:
Here’s Conger on his issues page:
Guarantee protection for Americans who remain continuously enrolled in insurance plans.
Broaden the criteria to form association health plans and individual membership associations in order to lower insurance costs and create more options for people with pre-existing conditions.
Allow people to buy insurance across state lines so there’s more competition in the insurance market and consumers have more choices.
And here’s Wehby:
Guarantee protection for Americans who remain continuously enrolled in insurance plans.
Widen association health plans and individual membership associations to lower insurance costs for people with pre-existing conditions.
Allow people to buy insurance across state lines to spur competition and give consumers more options.
Cut coverage requirements so consumers can buy less expensive catastrophic plans.
...
Here’s Conger again:
Make real the guarantee that if you like your plan, you can keep your plan. Keep the promise that Jeff Merkley and Barack Obama made to Americans – and broke.
And here’s Wehby:
It would start with two main goals: make real the guarantee that if you like your plan, you can keep your plan — in short, keep the promise that Merkley and Obama made and broke.

This second flail is all the more alarming when you consider that Wehby is a medical doctor who once, during a primary debate, attacked Conger, saying Oregon needed "more MD's and less JD's" (never mind the fact that she should have said 'fewer')
Way to pick 'em, Karl.
