I think so. He's a centrist Democrat that doesn't toe the party line all the time. He's what the left wing hates because he won't get caught up in the mass hysteria they go on about.

Sort of the way redhatters felt about McCain?

Define many with a link. Surely there is a stat out there. More than likely if you didn't have insurance (the purpose of the ACA was to provide insurance for the uninsured) you didn't have a doctor.

Does popular mean good? Never? Sometimes? Always?

By no means does popular automatically mean good. Sometimes yes but many times no.

I don't have a problem with the preexisting condition clause but absolutely oppose the provision allowing adults to stay on their parents plan. I oppose that mainly because it doesn't simply allow it, you can't kick them off unless they agree or have access to their own plan.

I agree with your first staement.
Undecided on your second. It seems the net effect is more people are insured. And personally, it may be beneficial to my own children.

If it was voluntary, great but it's not. When you get ready to drop your kids from your plan you will have to have them sign a form and provide proof that they have other insurance available before the insurance company will drop them. So if you had a dirtbag kid you would be forced to pay for them even if you didn't want to.

Nah, she was off my plan 60 days after she graduated college.

The cost of my plan remains the same whether my oldest drops off or not. I told her to ask her future employer if there is any benefit to her for remaining on my plan.

For some there’s a penalty for carrying an eligible dependent when that dependent is offered employer insurance.
