20. Do you really believe Clinton wouldn't have the Health Care Industry at the table???
The DLC is bought and paid for through the health care industries.


Corporate contributors to the DLC and New Democratic Network include Bank One, Citigroup, Dow Chemical, DuPont, General Electric, Health Insurance Corporation of America, Merrill Lynch, Microsoft, Philip Morris, RJR Nabisco, Chevron, Prudential Foundation, Amoco Foundation, AT&T, Morgan Stanley, Occidental Petroleum, Raytheon, and many other Fortune 500 companies.

I tried with no success to find out who and what is Health Insurance Corporation of America, and I could not find out anything about them. Which lead me to the conclusion that it is a conglomerate of ALL insurance companies. It would be interesting to KNOW how much money the insurance industries are giving the DLC.

I have heard both candidates talk about health care, maybe not as much as Edwards, but they mention it at all their rallies. Maybe I'm missing something. I have also heard them talking about the other issues you brought up.

Maybe you should start watching some of the rallies covered by C-SPAN. It might help to clarify these issues, that you seem to believe died with the Edwards campaign.

BTW, I was an Edwards supporter. But considering he isn't campaigning anymore I will have to choose between the two standing candidates which is a hard decision to make, and I don't have to make it until March 4th.
