Dems will be in a heck of a lot of trouble in '10 if a real overhaul of health care fails to go through - a good chunk of the liberals will be angry at the right wing "Dems" who sabotaged it and not vote at all.
It has to pass for us to maintain our majority... and "it" is a Public-Option Health Plan!
