Greg Sargent at his Washington Post blog has a long interview with She Who Knows. Worth reading both parts of the whole thing, but I particularly liked her summary of the horrible Ryan-Wyden Medicare-gutting plan: … Republicans have argued that the new Medicare plan embraced by both Paul Ryan and Dem Senator Ron Wyden will …
