A lot of things have changed since 2000, particularly the cost of delivering healthcare. It's much more expensive now than it was then, and as we saw in Vermont, not even the most liberal states are willing to take on the burden of single payer.

The New Republic is a trash magazine gliding on prestige it no longer deserves. Hughes has turned it into a massive dumpster fire and is walking away with his millions, uncaring about the institution he destroyed.

I wonder who felt like attacking Sanders from the left would be a good idea...

Attacking Sanders for wanting to impose regressive taxes on the poor and middle class is not attacking him from the left.

You keep repeating this allegation, but have yet to substantiate it, as far as I have seen. Link please.
He is citing Bernie Sanders' own filed legislation to establish a single payer system, which would replace medicaid and private insurance with a single payer system funded by a 6.7% increase in the payroll tax(regressive) and a modest 2.2% increase in the income tax, with higher taxes for those making more.

It is laid out very clearly in this article in the Washington Post.
