Lost One

I posted an article here on the 29th on the election. Or at least I thought I did. It looks like it did not successfully post and I do not have a copy.

It wasn't one of my better ones, but here is the (very) condensed version of what I wrote regarding the election...

1. Sorry about not writing sooner, as promised, regarding President Bush's acceptance speech.

2. Bush did talk some about health care. Nothing on medical research or genetic discrimination.

3. For issues related to the Huntington's Disease community, neither candidate offers a significant advantage. Why? Increases in research spending that affects HD is not likely to be much different under either candidate. Neither candidate has taken a noticable stand on genetic discrimination. The Canadian's have just taken steps to limit the ability of the US to reimport drugs (they did this to preserve their prices). Various other positions on reducing medical costs (that would affect our community) are essentially a wash.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program...
