Obama facing public, political criticism of plan |
|
While President Barack Obama's concession on a health care "government option" continues to draw complaints from liberals, it is failing to gain interest from his conservative critics. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32461751/ns/politics-white_house

3. Start out weak and talk it down from there. Outstanding strategy if you're taking a fall. |

4. Obama just refuses to see that a) the pukes will never support ANY reform, b) the plan |
