Health Care

NO DEAL IS BETTER THAN A BAD DEAL

Am I the only one who cannot keep up with the healthcare debate, to the extent that Rham and others are allowing a public one?

The President seems stretched so thin - any President would be. It's extraordinary, almost crippling, the amount they have to handle.

If resistance is what it appears, perhaps they need a longer time and/or smaller problems to solve. Afterall, it took months and months for the Civil Rights Act, right? Why should healthcare get done quickly?

After that, it's not clear whether or when the President will refuse what is on offer, saying that no deal is better than a bad deal. He'll need to go to the country on that.
