And here comes the Cavalry to seal the healthcare deal.

Over the last week or so, we've mobilized an unprecedented coalition of the largest progressive organizations in the nation, including MoveOn, HCAN, DFA, Progressive Congress and SEIU--with others expected to join imminently.

On February 24th, the day before the Presidential Healthcare Summit, we will deliver to Washington DC, a scream they will never, ever forget.

1,000,000 VOICES FOR HEALTHCARE REFORM: A VIRTUAL MARCH ON WASHINGTON

We'll do this via calls, faxes, emails, telegrams, balloon drops and carrier pigeons. Whatever. It. Takes.

This coalition is committed like nothing this country has ever witnessed, to turning the dream of guaranteed and affordable healthcare into reality.

PLEASE TELL US IF YOU WILL JOIN THE 1,000,000 VOICES FOR HEALTHCARE VIRTUAL MARCH ON WASHINGTON

I now believe, come hell or high water, President Obama will sign a bill, and it might even include a public Option.

Failure is not an option. http://openleft.com/diary/17464/breaking-obama-will-support-the-public-option-if-reid-will Don't believe me about the nightmare consequences of failure, but please believe Paul Krugman. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/19/opinion/19krugman.html?adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1266584410-3wc5OxFS8Y6pmLxY666Iog So this miraculous day in the Rose Garden or Oval Office must happen, and in large part it will happen due to the hard work all of us will undertake on Wednesday, February 24th.

Repeat after me, please: Wednesday, February 24th, a day Washington will never forget...

3. It should have been done last year before the Teabaggers
march, the Republicans wanted to beat down HCR again and succeeded just like before. The health care industry and the Republicans had a goal from the get go to defeat HCR and got the upper hand right from the beginning while Democrats sat on their hands.
