I know I keep harping on this, but if you wonder why everything wasn’t fixed during the #ObamaYears, just look at the timeline. That mythical majority was less than a year, and it took the endless recounts to get Al Franken seated in 2009. They got the ACA passed in that brief time DESPITE Joe “No Labels” Lieberman torpedoing the #PublicOption before losing the House to the GOP in 2010.
You want to vote No Labels and reward the guy who took the Public Option “Off the Table”?
