Did Clinton and Edwards Win The Argument On Health Care?
Greg Sargent notes this from Barack Obama:
By the way, I'm going to be partnering with Elizabeth Edwards, we're going to be figuring all this out."
As Greg writes:
The key political context here, of course, is that back in April, Elizabeth revealed that Obama's health care plan wasn't her favorite [she expressly preferred Hillary Clinton's plan]. Enlisting her as a public voice on health care could obviously help with the Obama camp's outreach to women and help win over skeptics in general.
I have no opinion on the merits of the respective health care plans, but it is an interesting move to the LEFT by Obama (now in GE mode) and to a unified position on health care in the Democratic Party. Very interesting.
By Big Tent Democrat, speaking for me only.
