2. They see the left split on single payer and public option

Many single payer advocates are furious with Dean because he chose to speak for the public option plan

The Senate Dems are salivating because we are not united. Many SP advocates simply refuse to sign a petition or call on behalf of the public option.

They see the split, they are happy, they move on.

I would have been for either, but I think it is too late now. Even at DU the advocates for SP are saying the public option is a cop out.

As usual the left divides and many oppose what we could have had.
