If its the special interest money thats holding things up, Can't he promise fundraisers in their districts?

1. Then Obama is going against those special interests

Sure he COULD fundraise for them, but what about his own reelection in 2012?

Im sure his advisers have plans on securing funds from the same special interests for that reelection.

Thats how the corporations maintain control.

2. I really doubt that the health care industry will give him anything for 2012.

Unless there is a major cave-in, and he is a Dem--Maybe you are right.
