Long enough, new enough, no copyvios found, QPQ done. I'm not crazy about the hook; I read a lot of Obamacare bashing in the press, and I'm not sure if people would think "so what" and move along. Is there a another hook you can come up with?--Launchballer 09:44, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'm open to suggestions but I don't think you'll get something super interesting out of this article. The suggested hook is a pretty pithy comment, IMO, and would generate at least some interest. My only other suggestion would be:
- ALT1 ... that businessman Will Brooke finished 5th out of 7 candidates a recent Alabama primary race despite being endorsed by former governor Bob Riley?
