(Not) Atrios: " It's the Savings Stupid"...

[BlooInBloo]

"As Atrios mentioned in an earlier thread, the CBO estimated that a public option would save the country billions. The Republicans, talking heads, and some Democrats, have focused intensely on the cost cost cost of health care. Why is everyone suddenly silent when it comes to the CBO estimating that a public option would save the country money? Oh wait, don't answer that."

Atrios:

"Rooting For Failure

The real test will be when Dems do or don't filibuster a good health care bill or amendments. I'll be rooting for any of those who do to lose. If 60 votes doesn't mean shit, then... who needs'em."
