Andrew Sullivan makes a great point in a post titled, "Obamacare vs. Romneycare." Romneycare is the popular health insurance reform passed in Massachusetts and signed by then Governor Romney.
"... The weirdest thing about the Republicans right now is the their most viable candidate next time backed almost exactly the healthcare reform Obama is proposing. If Obama is a socialist, why isn’t Romney?"
Now that Obama's included an individual mandate (requiring people to buy insurance) his plan is virtually identical to the one Romney signed into law.
It looks like we'll have to pick between our socialists in the 2012 election.
