There's a lesson too late for the learning...
But the Democrats that voted against this reform bill will probably have a tougher election than those that voted for it. It will be interesting to see how the next elections unfold.

If indeed, those Democrats that voted against healthcare reform lose in larger numbers, what would be the message?

Would it be that the voters want Democrats to be more progressive? They want them to tackle the problems with courage and conviction. Will the voters punish those Democrats that voted against the bill for what they thought was valid political rationale?

Will this help to put the Democratic Party back on the right track?

1. Remember "All Politics are Local"
People will vote for their guy but rant and rave about all the rest...:shrug: It is up to locals to offer up Primary candidates or accept what they have.
