Anyone who thinks medical malpractice lawsuits are a big problem in this country is dumb, uninformed, lying to themselves, or all of the above.

Right....Doctors leaving the practice because the high insurance premiums caused by BS lawsuits, and the multi million dollar settlements awarded by idiotic juries is not a problem.
Putting pregnant women at greater risk by increasing the number of C-sections so John Edwards can live in a 30000 square foot home is not a problem. I have no problem with Edwards being rich, but to earn your money in a fraudulant way as he did, makes him no different than a thief to me.
The mentality of the masses in America is that all doctors are multi millionaires. The judgements levied against docs have been huge in many cases.
I generally dont think real highly of docs in respect to quick and accurate diagnosis, but in this case they are really getting screwed hard with no lube.
