ROXANI GILLESPIE

I applaud Gillespie for trying to fight the lawyers, educate the legislators, tolerate the crusading, immature professional “consumerists” and reform the insurance companies. Anyone who has had a claim against an insurance company knows insurance reforms are needed, but the insurance companies should not be destroyed in the process. Despite the article’s constant references to the clothes Gillespie wears, her dresses and shoes are unimportant--it is her ideas that really matter.
