      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Sure, it was pretty ugly watching the Senate Democrats lurch their way to the 60 votes necessary to pass a health care bill this week. But Paul Krugman is sooooo wrong when he self-righteously derides the process as dysfunctional in <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/21/opinion/21krugman.html?_r=1">his Monday NY Times column</a>.   <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog/leadership_is_making_sausage/">Read More</a><br /><i>Tags: There are no tags for this entry.</i> ]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[This is a big week for Obama. Vacation's over and so is the honeymoon. A lot is riding on his big health care speech to the Congress this week, not just about health care, but about the kind of President Obama will be.  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog/leadership_as_the_distribution_of_loss/">Read More</a><br /><i>Tags: There are no tags for this entry.</i> ]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Sorry, but for me, Obama has not closed the deal on health care. 

Real health care reform means both universal coverage and cost control. More people being covered is going to put more pressure on costs. And health care costs in the US are already way out of whack with the rest of the world.   <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog/obama_has_not_closed_the_deal_on_health_care/">Read More</a><br /><i>Tags:  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog_listing/tags/obama" title="obama" style="font-size:{step}px;">obama</a>,  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog_listing/tags/leadership" title="leadership" style="font-size:{step}px;">leadership</a>,  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog_listing/tags/healthcare" title="healthcare" style="font-size:{step}px;">healthcare</a></i> ]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I was surprised by how focused I was last week on <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/04/28/specter.party.switch/index.html" target="_blank">Arlen Specter's decision to bolt the Republican Party</a> and join the Democrats. Why should anyone care?

Part of my response was simply personal. I still cling to my identity as a liberal Republican, a choice I made fifty years ago. Specter is "nice Jewish boy" like me, who has used the Republican Party and been used and abused by it for most of his adult life. His abrupt departure makes the already thin ranks of socially-liberal, fiscally conservative Republicans even smaller. I feel lonely.  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog/leadership_self-righteousness_and_self-doubt/">Read More</a><br /><i>Tags:  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog_listing/tags/risk" title="risk" style="font-size:{step}px;">risk</a>,  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog_listing/tags/election" title="election" style="font-size:{step}px;">election</a>,  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog_listing/tags/republican" title="republican" style="font-size:{step}px;">republican</a>,  <a href="http://www.cambridge-leadership.com/index.php/publications/blog_listing/tags/congress" title="congress" style="font-size:{step}px;">congress</a></i> ]]></content:encoded>
