I wonder what would happen if the Democrats worked as hard to

[mmonk]

get fellow Democrat Kucinich's health care reform vote as they have to get Republican Olympia Snowe's vote? Wouldn't we at least have a bill with the Kucinich amendment in the mix?

1. That's not very bipartisan of you, whippersnapper

But I like it. :hi:

[mmonk]

4. Yeah, I can't seem to get that bipartisan thingy down pat.

:hi:

6. Easy

First be a little scared and somewhat stupid. And want the bad guys to think of you as one of them, so you have to kiss their ass, a lot.

Do all that and more and pretty soon you'll be a teabagger, 2.

There are somethings we should never do, eh? So why are so many bi? -Partisan-

7. Thanks.

Should I also get shock treatment to prepare my brain? :)

2. Hmmm

No moderate Dem support with nothing getting done vs. some most moderate Dem support and something getting done?

3. All depends on the priorities of Democrats, doesn't it?

[kctim]

8. Absolutely

that and acknowledging the fact that not all Democrats are liberal/progressive. So what are the priorities of the Democrats? Doing nothing because some are not getting everything they want, leaving the status quo intact?
OR
Doing something that could at least help some?

5. And if that "something" hurts Americans instead of helping them...

...who cares? It's one in the "Win" column for Democrats, for which the voters will thank us in 2010 - but we may not like the way they thank us.

9. All depends

on if Americans see a govt plan as "hurting" them or not.
