"Health care didn't pass in 1994 if I recall." [View All]

[russian33]

Sun columnist Jon Ralston breaks some news about Obama coming back Sunday and Monday. Also, Sen. John Kerry, who endorsed Obama today, cold-called Ralston today. J.R. summarized the conversation to readers of his e-mail newsletter:

So why Obama instead of his former running mate and the former first lady?

"The times are different," Kerry said. "The times demand different things."

He said Obama's race will not be an impediment to "most Americans....This is 2008...I think most Americans are way beyond that."

But what about Clinton's argument that talking change is different than producing change? Listen to this, dear Flashees:

"He produced one of the most significant ethics reform bills we passed. He has been a legislator longer than Hillary Clinton." And then this zinger: "Health care didn't pass in 1994 if I recall."

I would love to be on the Senate floor when they all get back.
