What is a wide open issue that could hurt the Dems in Nov is that when the pre-existing folks move in to enroll and the insurance companies increase premiums for all to cover them, then it may backfire for the Dems.

And this could happen within 2 months.

Am I overlooking something in my thinking?

I just skimmed the last few dozen posts on PfP; they aren't happy campers.

Krauthammer summed it up bset on FOX tonight:

"Nonetheless, it will be the law of the land as of tonight and we're going to be a different country," Krauthammer said. "We are on our way, there is absolutely no chance we are not going to end up with national health care."

And Krauthammer said our system will soon look like the one in the United Kingdom and in Canada.

"This is nationalizing health care, the insurance companies are now utilities, they are contractors, the government makes all of these decision, only a matter of time and will probably happen after the Obama administration. But he will be remembered as the father of national health care as they have in Canada or Britain and starts, tonight."
