Here We Go Again

Politico (yes, take with a grain of salt) is reporting that the White House has asked Harry Reid to capitula...I mean, reach an agreement with Lieberman. Which means that medicare buy-in would go. So we can expect yet another moving of the goalposts in 3,2,1.....And if I'm wrong, and Lieberman is happy to kill the bill? I think Bernie Sanders will probably go into opposition. And if he doesn't, and there's nothing like a public option at all, the progressives in the House will either have to torpedo the legislation or get rolled. In public. Again.
