Random Note: Senator Baucus Announces Retirement -- Train Wreck
Breitbart is reporting:
The most likely factor in his decision to retire is the looming
implementation of ObamaCare. As Chair of the powerful Senate Finance
Committee, Baucus was a chief architect of Democrats' overhaul of the
health care system. Baucus recently rued that ObamaCare is headed for a "huge train wreck."
In November, Montana voters overwhelmingly approved
a ballot initiative, with almost 70% of the vote, to prohibit the state
from enforcing a federal mandate to purchase health insurance. While
federal law trumps the ballot initiative, the vote is a good sign of how
unpopular ObamaCare is with Montana voters. That vote likely triggered
Baucus' thoughts of retirement.
