Time to declare victory. With or without the public option...   
   ... Obama is poised to make more progress on health care reform than all other presidents since WWII combined. Whatever passes initially will be a victory for our side. And whatever passed initially will not be the last health care bill ever passed. The struggle will go on. The focus will shift to one of two things: 1) improving the public option or 2) moving into high gear on a "Medicare for all" agenda if the public option plan fails to get into the bill.

But this is important part: We have to declare victory.

Again, the fight will go on. And if we can win bigger in 2010, the fight will be

If congress uses reconciliation to ram this through, then the only thing you'll win next election is the title of "biggest losers".

I still can`t fathom why they actually believe going farther left will reward them.
Never in recent history has that been the case.

DUmmies don't learn from history and are doomed to repeat it.  Just look how 0Bama thinks the failed socialist policies of other countries can be made to work , this time.

Deny reality.
Make a alternate reality.
Accuse others of being in alternate reality

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
