An interesting health care meeting today
A group of single payer advocates met with Schumer today and had a very good meeting.

There's a journal over up on DailyKos by someone with knowledge of the meeting: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2009/5/29/736826/-Senator-Schumer-makes-health-reform-promises-today!

You should read the whole thing, but here's a few interesting things:
-Schumer knows a single payer system would be better
-The hope is that eventually the public option would be become single payer
-Schumer's going to ask the CBO to score a single payer plan
