We finally know the answer to the question, what’s the dog going to do with the car if he catches it? In the case of health care reform, bury it. Republicans who want to hand Obama a major defeat are jubilant that the blue dog Democrats are doing their work for them. I know these guys think they’re helping craft a better bill, but what they’ve done so far is disastrous. The only hope is that Obama can crack the whip hard enough to get their attention (boys, you’re not going to get a lot of help from me if you ever want a bill of your own passed, and I sure won’t be there for the photo op during your tough re-election campaign, and good luck getting any money from the party), or we’re going to miss this latest best chance at getting anything meaningful passed. If so, Obama’s agenda will be wounded, perhaps fatally, and millions of Americans will continue to suffer needlessly for lack of a rational health care system. The dirty dogs.
