I saw this artical reported by a NJ reporter covering a town hall for NJ Congressman Frank Pallone (D-NJ) and I was struck about how true it was...

Now he says that the opponents of HCR are much worse than the proponents and that is leading him to supporting the Democrats version of HCR but not without reservations.
But his main complaint is that nobody is listening to the people in the "mushy middle"...it is all about the people on the LW and RW of this country running this debate...
I wish he was wrong...but I fear he is right...but my hope is in the pragmatism of President Obama to get a workable compromise that will leave those on the Left and Right upset but the pluarlity in the mushy middle quite happy.
Before you trash this diary...listen to his video...it is quite revealing and he is really trying to help.../peace
