“Senator [Scott] Brown comes from a state that has a health care plan that’s similar to the one we’re trying to enact here,” White House adviser David Axelrod said Sunday on ABC’s”This Week.” It was a pretty weak attempt to connect the newly elected Republican — someone considered “cool” — to Obamacare, which most voters believe to be very “uncool.”

Still, the comparison between Obamacare and Massachusetts’ 2006 experiment in universal health insurance is appropriate. And Tim Cahill, the state treasurer of Massachusetts, says that should scare the hell out of everyone in America, because it will “bankrupt the country in four years.”
