"Affordable Health Care"

That was the pitch from a team of at least three people working our Albuquerque neighborhood yesterday afternoon. We didn't interrupt our walk long enough to discover who the group was representing. (Oops) But we did spot what appeared to be the group's vehicle, a white van with Pennsylvania plates and a University of Pennsylvania parking sticker. Very curious. 
While I have no basis for generalizing, our neighborhood of the University of New Mexico seems to get a full share of folks pitching policies door to door. The Sierra Club and P.I.R.G. are the leading pitchers, usually represented by scruffy youthful types. The last Sierra Clubber got annoyed when asked what he was selling.
