Obama: we'll do health reform without the Republicans if need be

Maybe that will light a fire under Baucus, so he can stop fantasizing about Republican cooperation on reform, which will never, ever happen. Come on, Jethro, four committees have all passed health proposals without a single GOP vote! You can send them candy and strippers -- they're still not coming to your party!

PS Obama is pointedly NOT stopping liberals from attacking Blue Dogs in their home districts.

**UPDATE** -- Other Senate Democrats are now starting to publicly criticize Baucus for his idiotic quest to find Republicans to negotiate with. His effort is akin to the Reagan/Bush people and their asinine quest to find "moderate Iranians" to negotiate with.
