If there is no Robust Public Option, i am thru with Democrats... how long do we have to wait before they stick up for us? why should i keep donating my hard earned money and time to get more Democrats elected if they only end up sticking it to us in the end? Mr Obama gave a great speech the other night but that is no excuse to throw the public option into the ditch. All he will be doing is giving HMO's a mandated 30 million new customers to bilk. I was screwed out of health insurance due to cancer even tho i was covered to the tune of 50,000 dollars and it took me years to pay that back.
