Republican resistance to the Medicaid expansion in Obamacare continues to crumble. Florida governor and Tea Party mascot Rick Scott announced yesterday that he will accept federal funding for a Medicaid expansion, joining a growing list of GOP governors who have developed amnesia about their previous fierce resistance to the health care law. Other states (I’m looking at you, Wisconsin) continue to hold out, but I’m guessing they’ll come around eventually–assuming they remain in office. Now, if only this epidemic of conservative sanity could spread to Congress.
