Politics - Health care plan called 'gimmick' - sacbee.com: "Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's health care plan will not make it out of the Legislature, according to a key Democratic lawmaker who dismissed as a 'gimmick' the governor's proposal to use the state lottery to help cover the 6.7 million Californians without insurance. The Republican governor, who will veto the Democrats' counter-proposal as early as today, said this week he expects to strike a deal with Democrats within two weeks and begin working on placing a financing proposal before voters on the November 2008 ballot."
