It won't make a bit of difference if the Dems bend anymore to the Reps. What might help is forcing the filibusters at every turn.

I'm not suggesting bend - I'm suggesting deals. You go to a few republicans who actually wanted health care reform (there were a few) and you make a deal. That is how our politics has worked for centuries.

And yes you may have to bring one filibuster after another to get the republicans off their current course - but my gosh blaming republicans is just such a lame excuse for leadership.
