If it passes and the public sees its benefits, support for the plan and those who enacted it will rise, they say.

Keep believing that, dems. You'll be a shoe-in in November. (Heh!)

If it passes and the public sees its benefits, support for the plan and those who enacted it will rise, they say.

That will be a neat trick because the taxes start immediately and the "health care" starts in four years.

In the intervening four years, there will be CHAOS in the health insurance industry and the medical device industry specifically, and the health care industry in general. Real, genuine chaos.

They are delusional, thinking passing the bill will help them.

Passing the bill will destroy the Democrats for a decade.

I think they actually have a point, but only to a degree. Part of the reasons of 0bama's low number today is many liberals considered him useless who couldn't deliver what he promised. If they manage to pass the health care bill, I think these liberals will tick the numbers up a bit. However, the health care bill has low supports among both Republicans and independents, so if they dream that 0bama's and Congress' ratings to reach the numbers in January 2009, they are dreaming.

Let's not fall into the thinking that 0bama's low numbers are only because the HC bill is too liberal. Just as Dubya's low numbers were the result of conservatives deserting him, 0bama's, too, are driven by liberals who consider him 'not liberal enough'.
