The death of the public option
By Creature
If the public option is dead, mandates better die with it. Forcing people to buy crappy, overpriced insurance from corporations that prefer Americans die so they can profit is a deal breaker.
As for the suicidal politics of it all, the fact that Obama is willing to fight his left and not his right on this crucial issue means he's lost me. It's the 1990s all over again. If only I hadn't thrown away my Ralph Nader t-shirt.

Exactly. I never have and never will vote for Nader, but I have voted for Perot.

Obama needs to grow larger canolies and stick to his plans and let the right nuts bury themselves.
