Walz-Vance debate: Health care issues in the crossfire
Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will face off in the first vice presidential debate on Tuesday.
Health care has featured prominently in the campaign so far, and the debate could be a key opportunity for each side to press the other on their plans – and to attack the records of the candidates at the top of the opposing tickets.
Vance has thrust ObamaCare back into the national conversation with his explanation of former President Trump’s “...

Harris blasts Trump’s ‘concepts of a plan’ for health care in run-up to VP debate
One day before Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) and Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) face off in the vice presidential debate, the Harris-Walz campaign has released a more than 40-page long report attacking the Trump-Vance health care plan, which the campaign says will “eliminate health insurance and raise costs for tens of millions of Americans.”
“After nearly a decade of endlessly promising to reveal his health care plan, Donald Trump claims he only has ‘concepts of a plan.’ The truth is he d...
Cruz and Scott, both McConnell critics, get cold shoulder amid tough races
The Senate Leadership Fund (SLF), a big-dollar fundraising group affiliated with Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), isn’t helping two of McConnell’s biggest critics in the Senate GOP conference — Sens. Ted Cruz (Texas) and Rick Scott (Fla.).
This has prompted grumbling from conservatives who say McConnell has too much power over Senate Republican fundraising and point out that Cruz, in particular, a longtime McConnell critic, will be heavily outspent by h...
Voters need a second presidential debate that looks very different than the first
In every presidential election year since 1976, the main contenders have had at least two debates; in many years, there have been three.
However, we might only get one between the two nominees in 2024, now that former President Donald Trump has announced he will not debate President Kamala Harris again, claiming the original ABC debate was “rigged” against him.
That’s not good enough. If this is indeed the most important election o...
America is less polarized than it seems. Politicians need better data.
Polarization, a scholar has quipped, is a problem that no one can explain or solve.
We know that a vast ideological gulf now separates most Democratic from most Republican politicians. We also know that highly polarized politicians poorly represent many of their constituents, who remain comparatively moderate. But we’re not sure why polarization has arisen or what we can do about it.
As a pathology of American politics that has developed over decades, polarizat...
