Rahm Emanuel needs to call the Democrats into the White House..

One at a time and discuss what is at stake and let them know that no Republicans are supporting this health care bill. No matter what passes the House and Senate, they will oppose it. So the only folks debating what they want to pass are the Democrats. They are the only people involved in this debate actually. It is their choice.

It is up to the Democrats to pass a single payer, a public option, a co-op plan, or no plan at all. It is all in their court. If they are not ready to stand by the President, they will need to defend their seats in the next election without the support of the White House or the left base of this Party. It is up to them. Do they want to stand with the Republicans or do they want to stand with the Democrats and the people?

3. Rahm is busy trying to further his brother's career now.

Why should he do something that benefits us?

message.

6. The same Rahm who told candidates not to talk about Iraq? To go right on immigration?

To go right to win?
