I really hope he is correct. The entire process has gone on for way too long. We did not frame it correctly, we allowed the Republicans to sell it to the American people as a dangerous step into mediocre medicine and tax increases, and we permitted the media to run a-muck with misinformation and untruths. Going forward, I hope this administration has learned a lesson on how to really deal with the Republican/media machine for the sake of future legislation.
