Has the Extra Heat on Senate Democrats Started to Pay Off?

It's starting to look that way! Late last week Senator Max Baucus (D-MT), one of the so-called "Gang of Six" in the Senate Finance Committee started that he now supports a public option as part of health care reform.

Just today, another member of the Gang of Six, Jeff Bingaman of New Mexico, stated that he would support using reconciliation as a way to get heath care reform through the Senate.

It seems like the progressive groups whom Max Baucus warned of created a centrist backlash against health care reform have started to turn the tables! Keep fighting the good fight!
