#1 This dipwad is pulling out the stops to get re-elected.

#2 “Reid buckled to the far left ideologues in the White House and his caucus to go over the political cliff.”

Not! He’s simply tossed a phantom bone to the Progressive caucus. It doesn’t matter if Harry doesn’t have the votes to pass a final bill with a public option. True to form, he will blame Republican obstructionism and let the liberal shred machine handle the moderate Democrat defectors for him. That should be enough cover to roll out the ole’ “it’s not perfect but we tried” speech. If there's been anything confirmed this year it’s that Progressives don’t demand achievement – just good intentions. And in this case, even phony intentions will do.

#3 They don't have the votes without the government option or they would have passed it already. But then to make an announcement that they are going to include a provision that will lose them more votes is insane, self-destructive behavior. After the 2010 election maybe Harry can get on some medication to help him with his delusional behavior. A sane Harry Reid we can negotitate with, but until he starts taking his meds there isn't much we can do.
