LotM is correct that the prospect of people who currently have insurance "losing" it to a single-payer plan is something that turns off a lot of people.

Public option/"Medicare for America" is the position that enjoys majority support and the one that I think could actually get passed provided Democrats regain the Senate. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:925403946] in Politics C...
