Pelosi lacks votes for ‘robust’ public option
Nancy Pelosi counted votes Thursday night came up short in her quest for a “robust public option”. The “Robust” public option is the most extreme version of what the liberals are trying to shove down the throats of Americans. Though Pelosi, Hoyer, and other left wing loons in the House may have deep throats, not enough House members do. However, there are still two other “public option” versions. According to Politico, this means Democrats are more likely to try for a “trigger” option for a government plan.
Administration officials have been telling POLITICO for weeks now that this is the most likely compromise because it can probably satisfy liberals — albeit only reluctantly and after many vent frustration and some even threaten to walk away from the bill.
This would clear the way for backers to sneak a limited public option through the Senate by attracting moderate Democrats and then to win President Barack Obama’s signature.
