No surprise, the Connector Authority board, which oversees insurance programs under RomneyCare, the 2006 health care law, was not pleased at comments by state Treasurer and unenrolled gubernatorial candidate Tim Cahill that Obamacare could bankrupt the nation in four years, because it is modeled after the Massachusetts reform. Cahill said Tuesday that the Connector had “failed” because it had largely focused on heavily subsidized insurance programs. This, huffed board member Nancy Turnbull, showed “how ignorant he is.”
Pretty insulting. But hey, at least she didn’t say “retarded.”
