Yarmuth! Exposes Himself As A Die Hard Liberal

« The Obama Glow Continues To Faid | Main | Political Bumper Stickers - Good or Bad? »

Rep John Yarmuth! came out of hiding and held a town hall meeting tonight. What did we learn from the spectacle? That Yarmuth! supports the health care plan that Pelosi and other hard core liberals in the house are trying to pass.

Obama and leading Democrats want a plan that would penalize businesses that don't help provide health insurance for their employees and create a government-run health insurance plan for those who aren't eligible for or choose not to take part in a group plan.
Yarmuth favors such a proposal.

One more tid bit from Yarmuth!

Yarmuth noted that while Congress isn't considering a single-payer health system now, in which private insurance companies help administer a government system, he believes that is where the country eventually is headed.

Am I missing something? Has Louisville turned into San Francisco? I imagine that a majority of people from the 3rd district are opposed to ObamaCare and would be opposed to the idea of government controlled health care. Yet that is what Yarmuth! supports and that is what he is going to vote for when he returns to D.C. Do the majority of Louisvillians really want such a hard core liberal representing them in D.C.? For some reason, I tend to think no.

Next year will be the ideal time to send Yarmuth! packing. All the Republicans need is a solid candidate who can raise money and he or she should be able to ride vote anger all the way to a victory next November. The only question remains is who will that candidate be?
