1. What a stupid post. No, and it is bad for more than health care if Brown should manage a win.
Brown is bad news.

9. All I'm saying is that senate bill advocates will get their 60th vote - big insurance will buy it.
They don't care if it's a repub, they corrupt people equally.

The bill sux.

2. Probably, someone posted an excellent commentary stating the above ...
by Larwence ODonnell.

I hope this horrible bill doesn't pass, but the Insurance Cartel loves it, so it will. :shrug:

5. The insurance industry spent billions trying to kill this bill, and they're still doing it.
The idea that they like it is firebagger fiction.

3. I don't know...
The Republicans are really anti-business. They might not like the idea of accepting money from a corporation.

Wait - what the fuck am I talking about? Shit, what the fuck are YOU talking about? Did you smoke the brown kool-aid acid?

4. !
:rofl:

It's like shit being made up, and all.
Election being counted although it hasn't happened yet.

I remember when Obama was going to win New Hampshire during the Primaries.
All the polls said so. He had "Momentum"...just not enough.
