The nation's poverty rate declined for the first time this decade, but the number of Americans without health insurance rose to a record high of 47 million in 2006, according to Census figures released today.

Over there, taking up half a row of seats in the audience, are the red ones. They say "Divided We Fail." A few people in light blue are handing out fans that say "I'm voting for kids." A chunk of people in dark purple are filtering into the room, having slapped purple "I'm a health care voter!" stickers on many members of the audience.

That was the lay of the land at an appearance in Las Vegas by Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards last week, and it wasn't unusual.]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://www.nvforhealthcare.org/health-care-news/organization-wants-health-care-to-be-top-issue-in-2008.html"><rss:title>Organization wants health care to be top issue in 2008</rss:title><rss:link>http://www.nvforhealthcare.org/health-care-news/organization-wants-health-care-to-be-top-issue-in-2008.html</rss:link><dc:creator>Nevada for Health Care WebMaster</dc:creator><dc:date>2007-07-14T20:18:58Z</dc:date><dc:subject></dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[Las Vegas Business Press By Matt Ward

The union jumpstarted the campaign in late June.]]></content:encoded></rss:item></rdf:RDF>
