RE: How Republicans beat health reform
I thought this website was about innovation and cutting edge thinking. How is
highlighting obstructionists innovative. Hennessey's thinking is the same do-nothing,
"problem, what problem?" strategy that lost the GOP the White House and Congress
last year. Despite their attempts to derail the debate and timetable for reform, this will
go badly for the Republicans. Policymakers and the public will seize the time to debate
the merits and think creatively about solutions. The Democrats are just as committed
to reform as the GOP is to stopping it. The Dems also have greater support for reform
by the public. The GOP will be in worse shape and will have only themselves to blame.
