Sadly this is not about a bill that works for most Americans. This is political blood sport. The Dems want something at any cost and the Reps want to break Obama. Those are the goals, not to help us. The only time they care about us is election time. lj

With the Bluedogs, their constituents could pose to be a problem if they vote for a bill that has been not well thought through. One of the reasons that the Republicans are in such dire political state is because of the way they rammed things through in Congress when they had "total" power. The Democrats would be foolish to make the same mistake. During the recess, it would be wise for Obama to go and campaign for his healthcare reforms in the constituencies of the Blue Dog democrats. Henry Waxman's approach is deplorable. With regards to the Party of No, it worthwhile to just not comment on. Instead, just standby and watch how shabbily they treat their African-American party chairman.
