I am one of those people you cite who are 'really hurting'. If you read my post earlier in this thread, you would see that my husband's and my chances of 'not hurting' were dealt a death blow by those who - like Obama - voted in the Illinois Senate to limit recovery for victims of medical malpractice in that state. In practice, what this 'limitation' means is, for all practical purposes, NO recovery, given the upfront costs of litigation and the very low caps put on any possible recovery for victims of medical malpractice in Illinois. Please explain how one can reconcile positions such as this on Obama's part with the image which we are supposed to feel comfortable voting for.
