The New York Times: Reports that the US Senate Committee that deals with Health has produced a bill that would reform the health service in the USA, the article notes that the Majority Democrats " had no intention at this point of pushing health care legislation on their own. " The Democrats have the votes, but then if it wrecks the economy and with a price tag of one trillion that is a great chance the Democrats would own health and not in a good way. Lets see if the Blue Dog Democrats in the House support this bill, they face re-election in 2010, can they take this home and sell it to their conservative voters. Lets recall the Democratic Leadership is Liberal, they don't have to sell it to their voters. I think Obama might have problems in the House even the Senate, if on the Republican side I would let it pass if it works then Republicans will get some of the praise, on the other hand it if fails and wrecks the economy the Democrats will be out of power for decades.
