6. She's shooting for EVERYONE COVERED. He is not and is afraid
to own up to his own position.

He's a liar.

7. In your bizarro world maybe
but here in the reality-based community, he just slapped down one of her lies about him. No wonder she looks so pissed.

3. Heh, only Hillary's and Edwards' plans are similar. They're basically the same.
You have to dive into the details to tell them apart. Both Edwards' and Hillary's plan feature a universal mandate for health care, and they both offer the opportunity to buy into a public health insurance entity, not a private one. For that last reason, it opens the door to later transition to single-payer health care.

People would soon discover that the non-profit public health insurance entity would offer more coverage at lower rates for the simple fact that it wouldn't tack on profit mark-ups and deny care in a bid to maximize dividends for shareholders.

4. He's repeating her words for position on NAFTA too.
If he ever has to take a question first, yikes, he might have a meltdown.

11. Obama wasn't sure whether he believed in the war on terror metaphor until he looked at Hillary
Remember the first debate? This is the savior?

10. He does that with all the questions he can ... HRC goes first...
He says he agrees with 'most' then tries to nail her on his differences. I'm glad she called them on it... not that it help any. And Russert is a dick....
