Couldn't have said it better myself!

Ned Ray did this at a time when we were making real efforts to control the costs of health care. But the economy grew faster.

A growing economy and real efforts to control costs, it doesn't get any better than that, yet it is still a financial quagmire that failed.

Liberal socialism runs on other people's money and it always fails when they run out of other people's money.

What makes Clinton think that if a State cant afford it the Federal Government can?

Because Tennessee doesn't have one of these:

[Ingtar]

The Democratic governor of Tennessee is using Tenncare as another excuse to "reluctantly" push for an income tax.

[goldstategop]

Yeah really. Isn't TennCare going under? I'd say Bubba knows how to repeat his 1994 health care fiasco! (laughing)

"Ned Ray did this at a time when we were making real efforts to control the costs of health care. But the economy grew faster. No state can handle this alone, having an unprecedented number of people dropped into the system."

What the hell does Sentence #2 have to do with #1 and #3????

I suspect that Hillary has been carefully looking at all the state run health care programs to see which one she likes the best.

"One,at least this one, can only hope that Former President Bill Clinton won't be around much longer. (I am referring to being around in the media)"

And I am referring to maybe he and the Missus will be jail where they belong.

"I suspect that Hillary has been carefully looking at all the state run health care programs to see which one she likes the best."

Or how she can best implement her own brand of horror health care.

"And I am referring to maybe he and the Missus will be jail where they belong."

One can always get out of jail.

I was thinking of a more permanent location, in a warmer area. ;)

sgtbono2002 asks: "What makes Clinton think that if a State cant afford it the Federal Government can?

Simple. Productive people will be more reluctant to leave the US than they are to leave Tennessee. When productive people have a choice, they do not choose socialism.

The poll must have been conducted at Scotch&Water kennedy's compound, while smoking crack cocaine.

[mewzilla]

Former President Bill Clinton said that the state's TennCare program may not be around much longer, but predicts that one day there will be a national program similar to it.

When Heck freezes over.

[Slyfox]

Hillary, being a dyed-in-the-wool Marxist, which would also make her a huge fan of Vladimir Lenin, is echoing in every pore of her being the old Lenin adadge:

"The key to Marxism is medicine."

[freekitty]

Correct.
