Want to understand how vulnerable state by state PO is? Look at the numbers:
43 states have balanced budget requirements, 13 states are Republican controlled and another 8 have at least one house controlled by Republicans.
These facts plus a lot of high pressure lobbying by the insurance industry means that only a few New England states will end up having anything like a REAL public option if we do it state by state and we will be giving the insurance companies 50 chances to screw us under the national news RADAR by "reforming" insurance in ways that will make the insurance companies happy like a kid at Christmas if we do this state by state.
after which the clueless primitive gives a state-by-state analysis, but never mind
The mountain man primitive who, like all men, nightly pitches his tent one day's march closer to the mausoleum:

Having been born and raised a Mountaineer, I can assure the DUmmy that he'll have a chance to avail himself of the Robert C. Byrd Healthcare System, at the Robert C. Byrd Medical Center, which is conveniently located on the Robert C. Byrd Scenic Highway. On the other hand, the Mountain State may have changed, since I don't recall ever seeing anyone like DUmmy ThomWV, wearing a necklace of self-extracted human teeth.
