ALAN BOCK: Dems Likely To Torpedo Obamacare. “Over the weekend at the National Governors Association, it was Democratic governors publicly expressing concern that Congress is talking about expanding Medicaid as part of insuring the uninsured. The costs of Medicaid, designed for a relatively small slice of the poor, are shared by the feds (57%) and the states. Besides the fact that Medicaid is hardly a model of administrative perfection, governors are concerned that even though some versions have the feds covering new enrollees for 3-5 years, they’ll get stuck with yet another unfunded mandate from the feds.” Phil Bredesen is among those worried, and he ought to know.
