Obama Shifts on Coverage Mandate - WSJ.com: "President Barack Obama said he is open to requiring nearly all Americans to have health insurance, clearing one hurdle in Congress's effort to draft a health-care bill.
During his presidential campaign last year, Mr. Obama opposed then-Sen. Hillary Clinton's idea of a health-insurance mandate on individuals. He argued it would put too much burden on low-income families."
...his lips are moving. Mr. Obama is reportedly also leaning toward taxing employer provided health benefits - a position that was proffered by John McCain, over which Obama demagogued McCain repeatedly.
