Dems Should Do What They Want

A new poll out suggests that the dems should do whatever they damn well please.

"The poll's top-line finds 37% of Americans saying they definitely will not vote Democratic for Congress this fall, 34% will definitely vote for the Dems, and the remainder are up for grabs. The poll shows that 50% oppose the health care bill, with 39% for it -- thanks to a 94%-1% opposition among the people who won't vote Democratic."

What does all this mean? People who don't support the health care won't vote dem anyway. So, who cares. The way it looks, the dems are going to lose at least 5 senate seats. They won't have this majority again for quite some time. Dems need to just pass the public option in reconciliation. They need to get some testicles and do what they think is right. People respond to it. It will be better for dems come november.
