Dick Morris on Joe Lieberman

On Tuesday the 25th, Dick Morris wrote a piece on comments by Joe Lieberman (I-Conn) regarding HR 3200 -- the Obama/Democrat Party proposal to reform health care. A couple of interesting paragraphs:

If the elderly are worried about the projected $500 billion cut in Medicare and Medicaid over the ensuing decade and conservatives fret over socialization of healthcare, the average American can relate most easily to the concerns over the size of the debt and the deficit that Lieberman articulates.

Lieberman’s critique gives moderates a place to go in the healthcare debate. Caught in the tug between the liberals who dominate Democratic primaries and the more conservative voices that may prevail in November, centrist Democrats can rally easily around the “not now” approach of Joe Lieberman. It is obvious that, despite the Obama majorities in Congress, this is the exact wrong time to embark on a major new government spending program.
