Ms. Lummis’s story during the Gruber hearing about her husband’s death demonstrates a tool often used by the left that the right needs to learn. It is not good enough to attack bad policies like Obamacare with theories and analysis and data; for the public to connect the dots you must connect on an emotional level. You must have real stories like hers that clearly show in real conditions the impact on real people. It does not matter that the story is only anecdotal; it is the emotional connection that is missing from many of the arguments from the right. They need more stories like this one from Congresswoman Lummis.
