Actually Politico haven't said any such thing; they haven't got around to it yet.

I offer the OP headline to Politico as an unnamed source.

11. Well, you voted for Obama. In fact, you AIDED him in becoming president.
Are you older than 55? If so, you're a senior.

So what's the scoop, senior Obama aide?

13. Apparently there is a lot of truth to reports Obama opposes a vigorous public option
and it may well be true the reports that Obama made a deal with PhRMA last summer.

Meanwhile, Senate progressives are drawing a line in the sand:

15. Very good!
Sort of a "pre-emptive scoop".

The ultimate "half-baked post", in blogger terms.
