Time to Start Over on Health Care Reform

The vast majority of the American people want to see some kind of health care reform. I THINK that we need a bipartisan middle of the road well articulated health care reform bill that is distasteful both to the more liberal and more conservative members of the House - Obama needs to have a lot of closed door meetings, find areas of give and take, and then present and champion and articulate a specific bill. As it says in Article II Section 3, of the President:

"He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information on the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient;"

If such a measure can't pass then let the voters deal with the most liberal and conservative members of the House. Obama needs to do what he said, and that is bring change to the way we do business in Washington. So what's goign to happen, are his poll numbers going to drop?

It's time to start over and do it right.
