Reply #49: If I am lucky, he will veto the bill that hits his desk. [View All]

Here is what he said:

Obama said, "That’s why any plan I sign must include an insurance exchange — a one-stop shopping marketplace where you can compare the benefits, costs and track records of a variety of plans, including a public option to increase competition and keep insurance companies honest, and choose what’s best for your family."

At this point, it seems likely that the bill that Congress produces will not have a public option. If it doesn't, will he veto it?

Or is he a triangulating, closet Republican like Clinton? Is he more interested in just passing any bill so that he can claim victory, or is he actually interested in passing legislation that actually benefits the American people more than it hurts them?

We'll find out soon enough.
