Aff - Legal Services Neg - States, Healthcare, ASPEC, T-Increase, case

I think the 2NR probably goes for the right thing in this debate. I think that the topicality may be an option- the 1AR was not necessarily strong on any flow.

On the politics debate:

The big thing here is that I think the Reuters card from the neg is actually bolstering uniqueness for the aff. The last line talks about how the republicans are united in opposition - then the aff reads a the Boston Globe evidence about how it won't pass because of the GOP Opposition. The problem is the card isn't good on the aff. Neither non uniques are very great. I think that you probably need to be finding more warranted reasons why health care won't pass.

There are some large gaps on the link debate from the 1AR. I think that they pretty much concede the Reuters link which is not good at all... It's a uniqueness card, not a delay link. I think the 2NC/2NR articulation of the card is very good but it sucks that the card is horrible. I think the 1AR essentially concedes the political capital link and only challenges the internal link.

I grant the disad a risk of the link so now I'm left with weighing the racism impacts against warming. Andrew's right when he concludes that the aff really conceded all of the 2nc overview on the impact debate. I think warming outweighs the aff.

I vote negative on the politics disad outweighing case
