I guess nobody told Howard Dean
Update: Now click the image for link to Countdown video. Gotta love the image of Olympia Snowe's nostrils "freaking out." Damn right I wish she'd just get benched.
The breaking story is that there is a Democratic "deal to drop a government-run insurance option." Maybe it's in exchange for a very limited Medicare expansion to people as young as 55, in other words people the insurance companies may not love anyway.
See below the posts last summer on the death of the public option, especially Public option died (somebody tell Howard Dean). Listen to how wrong he was about his Democrats back then. He should be asking, we all should be asking, Just who do these fucking Democrats work for? And why are they any better than Olympia Snowe?
