In case you missed it, last year we had a piece on the so-called non-Obamacare compliant ‘Freedom Fighter’ health care plans which appear to be what New Hampshire congressional candidate Marilinda Garcia is using to defy Obamacare.
Okay, this is kind of fascinating. You can see that we have this story about about Cruz-backed Tea Party candidate Marilinda Garcia, running for a seat in Congess up in New Hampshire. She was being interviewed last week and stumbled into this question of just what kind of insurance she had since she’s such a big critic of Obamacare. She very oddly ducked and bobbed and refused to answer the question, specifically whether she herself had an Obamacare plan. Her campaign followed up and clarified that she did have health care coverage but not an Obamacare plan. But some key elements of the story did not – and still do not – seem to add up.
Here’s our big piece today on what’s at really at stake in the battle to control the Senate next year. And what if voters just don’t care?

When I read the latest news about professional football and chronic brain injuries, I’m reminded of a conversation I had with my father, probably going on forty years ago. This was in the late 1970s, when I was very young. My father was a scientist but a marine botanist – so not expertise that had any immediate relevance to these questions. In any case, he didn’t suggest that what he told me was based on anything more than experience, watching.
Last night I noted that an April inspection revealed security concerns about the management of high security inmates at the prison where convicted school shooter T.J. Lane pulled of his escape last night. It sounds like those concerns were warranted: prison officials reportedly learned of the escape plot days in advance but took no additional steps to secure the unit where Lane was housed.
