Obama's call for bi-partisanship on health care reform and what's going on behind the scenes
Edited on Tue Jun-16-09 01:50 PM by DrToast
I notice that OFA keeps gearing up for some health care fight and HCAN has $80 million ready to spend on it.

If the plan was going to be bipartisan, would all this effort be necessary? Probably not.

I hope all this "rallying the troops" stuff means that the final health bill is going to be very unpopular with Republicans and the health insurance industry. That would mean it's a good bill.

2. Keeping my fingers crossed but what's leaking out isn't making me
hopeful.

3. Me neither...
I'm just hoping all this other stuff suggests they're expecting a fight.
