re: #21 GeneJockey

It would be interesting to see what a smart, dogged interviewer would do with that response of hers, like pointing out that tort reform of the sort the GOP desires already exists in a number of states, but healthcare and health insurance are no cheaper there, while also pointing out that despite the decrying of ‘defensive medicine’, it actually DOES save lives - I think one estimate was about 90,000/year?

“So, given that Gov. Palin, how is it you see tort reform making insurance more affordable for average Americans?”

But, unfortunately, she’s (barely) smart enough to never get within a hundred yards of smart, dogged interviewer.
