Pennsylvania's Republican Gov. Corbett Flip Flops On Medicaid Expansion

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett is the 9th Republican governor to expand Medicaid.

(Alan: Is it just me? Or do an unusual number of Republican politicians have eyes that look like the eyes of goats?)

Alan: I wonder if more Republican governors will "sign on" to Medicaid expansion in the wake of upcoming elections, and if the chief reason these governors have not signed up already is to appear "opposed to Obamacare" as long as 1.) opposition is politically beneficial, and 2.) opposition is not politically harmful. Make no mistake. The tide is turning on Obamacare. Soon, those murderous Republican governors who oppose Obamacare's expansion of Medicaid will be seen as the deadly pragmatists they are.

"Corbett, who is lagging in the polls in his bid for re-election this fall, said his plan, Healthy Pennsylvania, is not expansion under so-called Obamacare. The governor 'has been clear that he would not expand Medicaid because it is an unsustainable entitlement program,' a statement from his office said on Thursday. However, federal officials said the approval made Pennsylvania the 27th state to expand Medicaid under Obamacare." Hilary Russ and David Morgan in Reuters
