Reply #27: Right before an election....

[Kansas Wyatt]

You have the majorities and 2/3 of the American People who want at least a Strong Public Option, and NO Insurance Industry Giveaways. Shine the spotlight on those who want to hold it up and/or weaken it. Everyone goes on notice that the American People voted for real reform, and if anyone stood in the way, then there would be hell to pay for them. For those not up for re-election, you could still threaten to find someone in their district or state to challenge them in the next Primary and then have President Obama campaign for that candidate. The Democrats would actually gain seats in the next election if they did that, because people would take notice that they are working for them, instead of against them with shell games.

This is NOT hard at all. It's the fact that Democratic politicians have become too comfortable with their positions and Washington with the current way things go, because nobody will stand up to them and say enough. Too bad 'Enough!' was a paper tiger roar.

If the Democratic Party wanted to produce meaningful Health Care Reform, it could do it, but not by playing with the 'good buddy' rules and lets analyze formula to squeeze by on.
