Every poll I've seen has shown pretty solid support for some variation of that, so when Blue Dogs oppose it, they can hardly say it's because they're afraid of their next election. What they are afraid of is their next check from the health insurance lobby might be light, or they might not get quite as good a lobbying job themselves when they leave office if they don't drop the dead carcass of the public option at the feet of their masters when they are told.
