5. But these people make the Democrats look bad by presenting a better alternative

We cannot have that!

[lwcon]

7. But of course!

The kewl kidz said "public option" is all that (i.e., all that we're allowed to advocate for), and it would be the worst thing evah if they lost face for pushing a vacant agenda!

Glenn Greenwald:

The "public option" was something that was designed to excite and placate progressives (who gave up from the start on a single-payer approach)....

And it did, it did!

12. Excite progressives exactly, also to divide progressives

we all know that single payer is the best. What does the corporate firewall (our politicians) do? Arrest single payer people. That gets them out of the way.


Divide progressives so they start to debate public option vs single payer which in the end confuses the shit out of everyone. Thats where they want us.

If you want change try to get the majority of DU to say (to the politicians) you had your chance now we want Single Payer and we will fight for nothing less. If we can do this, the politicians will try to push for the public option (faster than a cat trying to shit on a hot tin roof), but it will be to late.

United we stand divided we fall.

Divided = no Single Payer no Public Option its happening right before our eyes.

My two cents. FWIW
