Pelosi makes case for government-run health option

And here it is, in Pelosi quotes from the article:

"The need for a public option is very clear"

"Anyone who had any doubts about the need for such an option need only look at the behavior of the health insurance industry this week," Pelosi said. "The idea that we would have health insurance reform without a public option becomes less likely."

"There are some things we'd like to see happen to the insurance companies that they might not like"

"If you are going to mandate that people must buy insurance, why would you throw them into the lion's den of the insurance industry without some leverage with a public option?"

"I want to send our conferees to the table with the most muscle for America's middle class"

Excellent job of "making the case", Pelosi.
