Last poll I saw said ~65% of people, and >70% of doctor support a public option;

I don' think there is any way 70% of docs support it. Certainly the ones I've talked to don't.

There is one young Radiologist, a friend of my daughter's, who was a big Obama supporter, and pretty radical. She was just starting her residency when she voted for him, an ardent supporter.

No more. But it was interesting to me that she flipped because she was a vocal supporter, one of the young people who first got involved in politics last year, AND she moved to the pacific NW last year.

I attribute it to her having her first experience with the way things actually work, in real life, but I do think other docs have been "working on her".
