This whole disgusting saga is a testament not to bipartisanship but to the utter failure of leadership and commitment to the voters and hard working citizens that elected Democrats to their positions.
Clear MAJORITIES of AMERICANS want single payer or the public option AND YET... Democrat majorities (which will soon be decimated) can't stop bowing to corporate power. The Democratic party is infested with corporate shills and spineless weasels. Will we do something about it?
