About Steve Verdon
Steve has a B.A. in Economics from the University of California, Los Angeles and attended graduate school at The George Washington University, leaving school shortly before staring work on his dissertation when his first child was born. He works in the energy industry and prior to that worked at the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Division of Price Index and Number Research. He joined the staff at OTB in November 2004.
You’d think so, wouldn’t you? But Sen. Clinton’s 1993 experience looks as though it’s being treated as a positive credential rather than as a negative liability. This is reminiscent somewhat of CEO’s of Fortune 500 companies. It’s been true for generations that a former Fortune 500 CEO, even one who’s failed miserably at the last job, is more likely to become the CEO of another Fortune 500 company than someone who’s never held that responsibility.
Seems to speak to a pretty weak argument. Don’t support (or perhaps, dont even bother to consider) Hillary’s health care plan because she proposed a worse one 14 years ago.
Leads one to wonder if the cartoonist / commenter simply couldn’t find anything wrong with the new proposal.
Actually Tano I’m not sure that her old plan was worse. And the cartoonists certainly don’t appear to think it is worse, in fact, given how most zombie/revivication movies turn out, it could very well be they think it is worse.
