Well, let me assure the gentleman from Virginia, I can promise you with absolute certainty that there was no favoritism on the part of the Obama administration toward the great State of Texas. If anything, Texas seems to be singled out for special consideration on some other areas. But perhaps it actually relates to the differences in the insurance market and the type of coverage that's sought. I really can't explain that 5 or 6 percent discrepancy. What I can tell you--and, again, this is with dead certainty--that the Obama administration did not--did not--show favoritism to the State of Texas or its Governor Perry.
