Short version: The “Blue Dog” fake-Democrats don’t give a ratr’s ass what the voters think or what they want or need. The only thing that matters to them is where the next bribe, er, I mean, corporate campaign contribution is coming from.
Senator Conrad’s largest campaign contributor over the last five years is the Davita Corporation, a nationwide health care service provider. You don’t suppose all his rhetoric about co-ops is really just about kissing up to Davita’s lobby and securing his campaign contributions for the next election? I’m sure Davita would prefer to compete with a feeble co-op system rather than a substantial public adversary.
