walking back her position on banning private insurance. Yes, it would be a flip flop but I think she needs to do it.

The thing that EW probably realizes is that the most she can hope will pass Congress (if we have the Senate) is the public option. Medicare for all won’t be passed.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
