Peggy Noonan's Obamacare Conclusion
Peggy Noonan concludes her "Now for the Slaughter" column on the tactics of Obama and his administration on Obamacare with this paragraph:
"And so it ends, with a health-care vote expected this weekend. I wonder at what point the administration will realize it wasn't worth it—worth the discord, worth the diminution in popularity and prestige, worth the deepening of the great divide. What has been lost is so vivid, what has been gained so amorphous, blurry and likely illusory. Memo to future presidents: Never stake your entire survival on the painful passing of a bad bill. Never take the country down the road to Demon Pass."
She seems to assume it is going to pass. I still hold out hope the Dem's will realize what they are doing and stop it. We should know by Monday!
