20. Good stuff, but these guys are missing an important factor.
Voters in these politicians' states are being massively propagandized by the health industries and local media to be terrified of public health care. We're talking full page ads every day in their local papers and nonstop commercials on local radio, not to mention scary op-eds. The right wing noise machine is back at the top of its game on this issue. All this has got to be skewing the feedback these pols get from their constituents.

Everyone who voted for more than a fresh face in the White House needs to be mobilized to counteract this propaganda onslaught, or the public option's goose is cooked.
