Reply #23: I've considered a lot of possiblities. I've wondered about Daschle, I've wondered about [View All]

Baucus I've even wondered about AHIPs access to the white house.

I've factored in that fact that overwhelmingly the American people in poll after poll want a government run solution to the healthcare crisis.

And then I look at this Bill and i think, what's wrong here? Why did we end up with so little for so much money, time effort and we even elected a 60 seat Senate?

We started out our negotiations with the PO. That just lame. We said so last December we said so constantly all the way through, and we end up with a crap bill with no publc funcional option, just a fake one. Just like was predicted repeatedly by all the people who pointed out that beginning negotiation with where you want to end up is just lame, becuase you will be negotiating away your must have position.

And that's what happened. And Howard Dean is either too lame or to dishonest to even see that or take any responsibility for it.

It wasn't just Howard by the way. I'm just getting started and I'm starting with him.

SEIU, Move on, DFA, OFA, HCAN, and others all started out at exactly the same place with the exact same strategy. They all decided that this was the way it was going to be.

And they were wrong, they misled a whole lot of people about their intentions, and they blew our historic chance for some real change.

Instead we got the Republican idea of change, a market based solution based on Romney Care. Who we didn't vote for, because we didn't want Romney Care.

And i'm pissed. If you aren't then you haven't been paying attention
