I'm not afraid to say it. Healthcare, Education, and Energy should be Socialized, Nationalized, Communized, whatever. I've posted an email I just received from my favorite Aunt. Basically her insurance company is opting for an invasive surgery to remove a possible brain tumor rather than perform a test because of cost factors. In her words, "I AM NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO THEM DRILLING A WHOLE IN MY HEAD TO FIND OUT IT IS NOT A TUMOR" (she uses big letters so she can see what she is writing.) Her specialist is convinced it is just scar tissue from an earlier eye infection and not a brain tumor. But the insurance company will not allow this particular test to be performed. Instead:

"THEY WANT TO SAVE MONEY AND JUST PUT THAT HOLE IN MY HEAD!"

Now, I’m new to being a Political Junkie. Mostly because it was so much of a racket and the prospect of change seemed unattainable. I no longer feel this way. Thanks Obama.

There is something I thought of that seems like a great idea. Maybe this is what presidential candidates do all the time and I am not aware of it. Like I said I’m new to this.

There are many V.P. possibilities. Obama’s V.P. choice seems a lot like the Repubs Primary choice where there were a lot to pick from, but no clear great pick. Just a bunch of good picks that created as many problems as they solved. My idea after the fold.

David Gregory should be replaced by Maddow. He keeps acting like the repubs. He keeps questioning Scott's Credibility to save his own as the best angle on this story. He's a squirmy media robot "stenographer" who insults my limited intelligence. The best Race for the Whitehouse was when David Shuster hosted. It felt like a political discussion with some nuance, laughter and ideas. I don't love Shuster but he handled the format exceptionally better than Gregory

There is not much subtance to this diary. Sue me. It's an opinion. I would like to find out if this opinion has any traction. The only reason I watch his show is for Maddow and Gene Robinson.

Enough has been said in other diaries about Gregory. I just want to know if people would rather spend the hour watchin Maddow or Gregory?
