Julie Boonstra: Fox News / National Review |
By Henry Payne
Michigan is a crucial piece on the 2014 U.S. Senate chessboard, and
Republicans have a good shot at gaining retiring Democrat Carl Levin’s open
seat, given Democratic nominee Gary Peters’s unpopular congressional vote for
the Affordable Care Act. Yet Peters has hope. The president’s unilateral delays
in Obamacare mandates have eased planned layoffs by local governments and
businesses. Moderate GOP governor Rick Snyder supports the ACA’s Medicaid
expansion. And the state’s liberal news media have largely ignored the
estimated 225,000-plus canceled individual policies and the job losses at medical-device
maker Stryker.
But Julie Boonstra won’t be ignored. So she must be destroyed.
The Dexter, Mich., leukemia victim lost her coverage last fall and
now stars in a
devastating ad fingering Obamacare — and Peters — for her resulting
distress. In an extraordinary media counterstrike, Boonstra, a schoolteacher, has
come under assault from Democrats and their media allies decrying her as a
liar and an ignoramus for failing to embrace her new, Obamacare-approved plan.
