BHO is popular and the cons are not. Simple. Reform of health care is going to pass.
The way it's written right now--it doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell of passing--especially after the protest today in D.C.
Democrats in the house know if they pass this bill as is--there will be a tsumani that rolls through their seats in 2010-like no other in the history of the United States. The democrat filibuster proof senate has already declared they will stop the house bill cold.
It's a dead duck--if they do not adopt a plan that gets rid of the public option all together.
Dream on cookie.
