All Health Insurance, All the Time


Andrew Tobias to the rescue, again. This morning he points us to this article by Matt Miller at The Daily Beast:
The truth is that everything that’s taking place right now is irrelevant.... Between now and [the House/Senate conference], everyone should take a deep breath. The talking heads have to fill up air time, but the rest of us should remember: until we get to conference, it's all prelude.
We need to think back to Obama's incredible political campaign. Does everybody remember a time when we were all frantic? We thought Obama was being too easy on McCain? He had dropped in the polls!

These guys know what they're doing.

Courage is not a common commodity among politicians. Right now they're being pummeled by the wackos. We need to take Matt Miller's advice: "Legislators need to get the message that their constituents want "change" on health care, and will punish them for supporting the status quo."

And the Republican Party needs to be put on notice that if health insurance reform fails to pass, they will be held accountable.

Amen to that!

Less talk until we see as they say, how the sausage looks when they get doone. This is all prelude...
