Fox News: Reports how moderate and conservative Democrats are still worried about the political costs of Obama's health care reform. As stated in my posts this is the time for POTUS to show if he is another LBJ or Carter, so far in pure political terms one can argue that it is 60/40 that the Bill will passed. The Weekly Standard reports that Obama is giving out sweets to House members, a Judgeship for a vote, well that is the impression from news reports, lets see what other bribes the Oval gives out to House members. Those that are leaving and voted NO first time could find a nice cushy job in the Obama Administration if they change their votes. Or those that face defeat in the Mid Terms could also get cushy jobs in the Obama Administration if they change their vote from NO to Yes. I don't have a problem with these political bribes, that is politics 101, it is when it costs three hundred million or other bribes that this blog gets annoyed. Thus one has to say that in pure political terms Obama is more LBJ than Carter. Lets see how it plays out.
