Dawdling
If Scott Brown wins on Tuesday [. . .] Health Care Reform will be dead [. . .] [H]ow incredibly stupid is the dawdling over the last few weeks going to look? The work of a year, arguably the work of a few generations, let go needlessly over a single special election? It's really almost beyond comprehension.
Some points - 1 - why would a health bill be dead? Why not reconciliation? This bill may be great in Marshall's mind, but it is not to a lot of us. 2 - Dawdling over the last few weeks? Is he talking about attempts to make the bill more progressive? Really? The dawdling he should be complaining about occurred last summer - when Max Baucus was allowed to hijack the process for 3 months. 3 - What is beyond comprehension is the political malpractice of Democrats for the last year on most every issue. They are staring at a debacle in Massachusetts on Tuesday and one in November because Rahmbo and Axelrod have blown it.
Speaking for me only
