Poll question: Which would you be more proud of if passed, Senate Health Care Reform or Grayson's Medicare Buy in?
Advertisements [?]
There are good elements of the Senate Bill, but Alan Grayson's Medicare buy in is easier to understand, doesn't reward the people who caused the problem, would save more money, and energize the Democratic base in the next election (as well as be more popular with the public even Republicans since they used ''keep yur guvmint hands off'n ma Medicare!'' as one of their rallying cries against health care reform. It would be tough to turn around and say Medicare is evil when their base still has those signs in their garages (but the GOP would do it anyway).

Is it just me or do you think the Grayson bill would be more of victory for Democrats if it got passed and signed into law?
