I think that most Americans agree that some degree of malpractice/tort reform is necessary. Both Bush/Cheney and Kerry/Edwards have spoken in favor of it. I worry about the simplistic approach that Bush/Cheney present, saying that all we need is tort reform to solve all these problems. In regards to Cheney's comments, I was not aware of your statistics, but considering all the other umm...I'll say misstatements (in defference to his office) that the Vice President made during the debate, it comes as no surprise to me.
