Clinton is a moron for coming out against single-payer.
It's damaging her campaign and had her lose against Sanders in the argument.
Not really. Single-payer will not pass in the current political climate and reopening the debate after banking a significant (and contentious) win with Obamacare would hurt the Democratic Party. Makes sense to me.
Thank you! We couldn't even get the public option when PPACA was going through the motions, and now I'm supposed to believe we can get Sanders' plan through what will most likely be a divided Congress?
That's not even the worst part (at least to me). Did everyone forget
(or not even realize to begin with) how badly the Affordable Care Act hurt Democrats in the following years? If by some miracle they took back Congress with a supermajority in the Senate, are we really going to throw it away again like this? What Democrats will want to risk losing reelection once the sh**t inevitably hits the fan? It's silly, and we have so many more issues that need attention.
Healthcare had it's turn, and it cost Democrats massive losses. It's time to move on to other critical issues. This little debate on single payer is completely pointless.
