Michael Moore is the man insurers love to hate. His controversial documentary, "Sicko," exposed huge holes in the health care system–not only for those 50 million or so (and climbing) who lack any coverage, but even among those lucky enough to have a policy supposedly protecting them.

The film spurred a renewed national dialogue about the need for perhaps radical reform, after relative silence and inaction on this glaring national crisis since First Lady Hillary Clinton's attempt to overhaul the entrenched system crashed and burned.

Now Senator Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., is again talking up the need for health care reform–although pushing for more modest changes, perhaps, than her original grandiose scheme–as the centerpiece of her campaign for the White House.
