She and all of the TOD fam really know how to work on getting Good Positive information out there. Which isn't always easy in itself when there's so many pushing everything negative to bring people down to their level.

Snip from your Wapo link..

"Imagine it’s the end of 2014. California now boasts a working, near-universal health-care system. Nothing perfect, but clearly a a success after the first year of implementation. Texas, meanwhile, is a bit of a mess. They didn’t allow the Medicaid expansion so the state’s poorest residents got nothing. They didn’t help with the exchanges, or the outreach, so there aren’t many choices, and premiums aren’t as low one might hope.

Viewed in isolation, Texas’s problems would be deadly for the law. But viewed next to California, they might mainly be a problem for the political class in Texas, which has failed to implement a clearly workable law."

Thank goodness for states like California that gave Obamacare a chance to work and show how beneficial it can be.
