Well, I found last night's debate bitterly disappointing. I had hoped that Warren would use the occasion to start climbing out of the hole she's stumbled into on health care. Instead she dug it deeper 1/

But Kamala Harris was willing to accept that risk, with a plan that's actually pretty radical but not purist. Last night was Warren's chance to show that she's equally bold. She didn't take it 6/

Maybe Warren really believes that single-payer is the only way; if so, I've misjudged her policy acumen. Either way, that was a bad night for someone who should be leading the progressive charge 7/

Krugman backs almost all lefty stuff, so this goes to show you just how off the, ahem, reservation she is.
