Howard Dean Joins With TP’s Igor Volsky And Faiz Shakir To Author Book On Health Care Reform

Howard Dean has a new book out on health care, titled Howard Dean’s Prescription for Real Health Care Reform. If you look past all the large type on the cover, and the giant picture of Howard Dean, you’ll see the names of my colleague Wonk Room health care blogger Igor Volsky and ThinkProgress Supreme Leader Faiz Shakir. The three of them recently sat down to discuss the book:

No offense, Igor proved himself lightweight with come of his past misunderstandings of the role of insurers vs. providers. This sounds the Democratic response to Frank Luntz.

Obama’s plan has bad theory in it. Pay for performance will do for health care what it did for Wall Street. His plans to get more primary care doctors is laughable.

I’m sure the book has all the John Podesta/Rahm Emanuel/David Axelrod talking points. If it’s available as a free download off the web, I’ll peruse it.

Mostly, I’m waiting for the bill out of conference. The rest is a kabuki dance.
