What happens if, in the next few weeks, there is no agreement on healthcare in the senate and the house? If the filibuster holds? Of more interest to me: if the bill is watered down enough, will the left in the house (or the senate) vote against the bill? With almost every republican opposed, progressives could make it die.
Could we then bring up a new health bill next term, with single payer, or a medicare+5 solution? Could it pass? Could it be implemented even sooner than the five+ year plans currently on the table?
I'm beginning to think that if Lieberduck makes too much of a fuss about this bill we should just cut him off at the debate, switch to a new bill, write it for reconciliation, and be done with him.
Yours, Lieberdogged out,
N.
