BOB BECKEL calling for tort reform. OMG
----------------
I was cheered until he made it clear it was out to score points in the healthcare debate and win the public option. And, no doubt, cynically, to win back doctors and respected professionals like the Mayo Clinic.
The AMA has accepted Obamacare without tort reform. Two-thirds of doctors do not belong to the AMA because of perceived AMA politicalization of issues.
Bob Beckel is a long-time Democrat strategist. He was a the campaign manager for Walter Mondale. Jimmy Carter appointed him Assistant Secretary of State. He was involved in negotiations involving the return of the Panama Canal. You might remember him best for being a co-host on Crossfire, the shouting match cancelled after Jon Stewart's appearance. Before Crossfire, Beckel regularly appeared on CNN where he was never identified as a Democrat strategist.
This is Beckel's deleted Wikipedia page.
