To put it quite frankly, I see this as the stuff of a simple business plan that any American small business owner could put together in a couple of days. How many tens or thousands of millions went into an incomprehensible and incoherent agenda by people working at Obama's behest. We have been betrayed by incompetence. They didn't bend over backwards - They bent forward, and tied their shoes together. The only way I see out of this, speaking as a self-appointed rep of the Middle, is for them to put together a simple plan and ram it through. They will have to abandon the 8% solution, since they didn't even understand it if they could say the public option was not essential. Sebelius should be fired for incompetence for saying that (and telling Obama to say it.)

I hope that they do do that - a re-write with a simplified public option and then ram it through. Targeting about 20 million people or less and then working forward over the years.
