"From the beginning, the defining irony of the never-ending debate over Obamacare has been this: health care is worst in those states where Republicans poll best. That is, the map of the states with the worst health care systems largely mirrors GOP strongholds in the Electoral College. Red state residents are generally the unhealthiest and more likely than their blue state cousins to be uninsured.

Now, a new analysis has a state-by-state body count of the millions of Americans Republican governors and state legislatures will leave without health insurance."
