Reply #10: And if Matthews is right?

[bc3000]

I think Matthews raises a valid point. Who else is talking seriously about passing something via reconciliation? I have seen several democrats saying health care is dead but I haven't seen any, apart from Grayson, talk about reconciliation as a real option.

Look at it this way: Democrats in both houses worked for months on health care and they came up with crap, bills so bad that they lost the support of a large part of their base and turned public opinion against health care reform. What makes anyone think that these bozos, freed from the 60 vote constraint, are going to do anything differently?
