Interesting article. It caught my eye because, although it inevitable addresses the rift between Democrats and Republicans on healthcare, it isn't completely centered around it, as most articles on the issue are.

They make palpable the tension currently surrounding Capitol Hill by describing the protests vividly, and the mounting suspense leading up to Saturday. The inclusion of protesters' chants are also effective. I wasn't at all bored while reading this article.

I liked that the authors put the spotlight on a couple of groups which are seemingly more likely to be affected if the bill passes. However, I would've liked if they had gotten more specifics from the AARP, as they did from the AMA.
