...expectations of America's medical future are now the rule in my patient population. Not with all the patients; the very well-to-do still show little concern for the future availability of care or what it will cost. But this group generally means business anyway; they've looked me up and are usually ready for an operation when they first come. The lawyers and teachers, similarly, don't seem too worried about losing access to my services anytime soon. And some fraction of patients always seems clueless about the world beyond the tips of their noses: they...

Yet there had been concern that the stepfamily would appeal the ruling, as it had done in response to every previous unfavorable decision.

...path in responding to the recession - temporarily increasing government spending to make up for slack in the economy. But voters, who continue to suffer from the downturn, are not so impressed. In a recent focus group with independent voters who voted for Obama, Republican pollster Ed Goeas found significant concern about government spending.

...unrivaled attacks," including from "friends on his own side." He added that Besson had only introduced the national identity debates that Sarkozy himself had wanted. Neither Besson nor Sarkozy has been shy in acknowledging that the formerly taboo topics of national identity and immigration are now such a concern among voters that they're fair game to be taken up by mainstream conservatives. Some pundits also see stealing a page from Le Pen's playbook as the best way for Sarkozy to woo FN voters to his camp ahead of the March elections, just as he did in 2007 when...
