I have been stunned by the number of "now we get single payer" responses.

I think the ONLY path to single payer is via something like the ACA that will allow a state to have something approaching single payer. Then, assuming it succeeds to cut costs - as it does all over the world - other states may copy. Then if the large business roundtable group committed their companies to providing their employees insurance via that single payer like option, you might end up with nearly every one in the state on it.
