Completly missed the point and misread the post.
Here are the people's choices. a) Vote for the group that says they want a public option, but who doesn't really push for one collectively. or b) Vote for the group that's pushing to kill the public option and any type of healthcare reform that our current president suggests.
Lets say my polls are more valid, and the majority of people are in favor ofthe public option... who would you expect them to vote for, option A or option B?
Lets say you are right, and the majority of people are against having a public option... who would you expect them to vote for, option A or option B?
And also, can you understand why a person for the public option would see both option A & B in a negative light?
In this case, democrats don't have to appeal to the people, because the only other option the people are given, appeal to them even less. Which is why, dispite the fact that the majority of people want a public option... democrats will not pass it so that they can hold on to their bribes, because voters won't switch sides no matter what the dems do at this point.
Oh, did I say bribes? I meant their campaign donations. Sorry.
So, as I've said in many threads before... we'll see what happens in 2010 and 2012.
