The House is about to socialize your medicine, and your life.

I hope so too, and I think you are probably right, but I wouldn't count on it. If there is a more gutless collection of political wimps than the Democrats in Congress....I haven't met them.
They throw real reform (single-payer) out the window before the debate process even starts, compromise the integrity of the bill(s) they do come up with repeatedly, and then go along with this Stupak-ammendment crap.
Since the right-wing hillbilly movement is going to scream about "socializing your medicine" no matter what, it would be nice if just once the Democrats actually showed enough backbone to make the right-wingers' fears of drastic change legitimate.

So will it shock me if Senate Democrats accept letting a womans' right to choose suffer just because the alternative might be a little politically difficult? Not in the least.
