own assumptions.  of course barack can do something without a mandate.  only an idiot would think otherwise.

you should learn some math or logic.  your problem is that your premises are flawed.  and you make a lot of assumptions that have to be untangled before anyone can have a decent conversation with you.

i didn't tangle too much with you until it was clear barack was going to win.  but now you are off the reservation.  if health care reform is important to you (and that's not at all clear), then you need to start to explain why you prefer mccain's health care plans over barack's.  your attacks on barack tells us that you support mccain's health care plans.  but we don't know why.  all we know is that you trumpet something that even hillary didn't take as seriously as you.  she had no intention of sending up her health care plan until her 7th (lame duck) year.  which tells us how seriously she stood behind her plan.

so why do you prefer mccain's plan over barack's?  why aren't you being honest with us about that?
