but we'll never know because he didn't DO anything. He seemed entirely uninterested in putting his two cents worth in, though he did invite big pharma, insurance and hospital execs to a meeting early on. Not real helpful, you know?

Don't worry, most of us know there is plenty of blame to go around. We know that the Republicans are doing the lockstep obstructionist crap but unfortunately, now they will get to spin it to say they refused to vote for such an awful bill (and many people who aren't paying enough attention to the process will believe them). We handed them that on a silver platter. They are not smart but we just made them look smart.
