12. His was a safe seat...the others who helped get it through the Senate mostly lost their seats.

I am surprised you would downplay one of Hillary Clinton's achievements...well up is down on this site at the moment. CHIP has saved millions of kids's lives including my nephew in Georgia's life...as you may remember Medicaid was never expanded in this state and others...so CHIP is all the kids have. It was and is a great accomplishment.

Both Clinton and Obama were sneered at as 'moderate and establishment',one of our current candidates wanted to primary Obama in 12 in fact. But both accomplished something CHIP and the ACA...what have those who sneer at moderates ever accomplished other than to lose winnable elections? Nothing ...the big "0". And Warren was still a Republican at the time CHIP passed by the way by her own words.

"Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) told George Stephanopoulos Sunday that she left the Republican Party in the mid-90s because it was tilting the playing field in favor of Wall Street."

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