Mitt gets roughed up on health care by waitress in NH diner
by Pam Spaulding
Romney sweats as he tries to roll out his pre-programmed message about
health care to patrons of the Red Arrow diner in Manchester, New
Hampshire, and a waitress behind the counter wasn't having any of it.
Via the WaPo:

One of the things I'm proud of doing in my state is putting on track a
plan that gets everybody health insurance," Romney began, seeing an
opening for his standard stump speech about his efforts as governor of
Massachusetts.
But Griffin was in no mood for platitudes, and interrupted.
"After we pay our huge deductibles for our insurance and our cost for
our prescriptions, there's nothing left," she said.
"Are you a Massachusetts resident?" Romney asked.
"No I'm a New Hampshire resident," Griffin said, and then added,
before Romney could jump in, that "we pay over $1,000 a month for our
insurance. Then we have co pays. Every time you go to the doctor, it's
$50 a visit. Then you have co-pays for our prescriptions. Can you tell
me what your co pay is?"
"Yes," Romney said. "$10 for each prescription."
"That's very nice isn't it?" Griffin answered dryly.
"Yes. What are yours?" Romney asked.
"Mine are like $30-$50. I have three sick children."
There's plenty more of the exchange.

Mitt gets roughed up on health care by waitress in NH diner
He needs to go with those pre-groomed audiences that will always
agree with him.. it seems to work well for Bush (at the cost of being
severely removed from reality)
