Health care in the election

Galen links to a recent NEJM article saying that health care ranks as the fourth most important issue in this year’s presidential election:

Although health care ranks higher in importance among voters than most other domestic issues, it is only fourth in importance in deciding their vote for president. The health care issues of greatest concern are the affordability of health care and health care insurance. Health care issues do not appear likely to play a decisive role in the presidential election in 2004, but they might make a difference in some swing states if the race is close.
