I saw him as saying that his position as a 'blue dog' has been misrepresented as being specifically against the public option.


He said that there were other concerns including employer mandates on small businesses and others that he and some others wanted and that these were accepted.


BTW the particular point of the blue dogs insisting that more should be put on preventative care and more emphasis on outcomes made the bill not only better but also more liberal.
