Do Republicans Run a Risk in Saying "No"?

No.
Don't expect a Republican change of heart on government-run health insurance any time soon.

Even though several less sweeping versions of the public option are gaining steam on Capitol Hill, potentially providing an opening for GOP lawmakers to bargain for the least offensive, party leaders are sending a message: Not impressed.

"At the end of the day, it's a government-run plan," one Republican aide told Foxnews.com.

Exactly. Nothing else matters.

I would certainly think that any Republican that buys into the Health Insurance SCAM that the Obama Administration is formenting will be on very slippery ground when the next elections roll around. Rightly so, if they support any health insurance plan which turns out to have some sort of mandatory government insurance plan and also penalize private insurance companies, they should be voted out of office period.

Rush Limbaugh said it from the beginning: let the Dems own it. It will be a disaster. Let it be theirs.

A Dem disaster brings its own cure (nature abhors a vacuum). But a milktoast GOP "compromise" just adds to the troubles. Republican lawmakers who can't figure that out need to get themselves a new job somewhere in the real world.
