This is good news. This doesn't mean we put our guard down, though. They may still try and stick something in the final bill under the radar.
It's demise? What about moving on to an option that works now? No one should be celebrating the stall in reform. It has so much more to do with beating the Dems than doing whats best for America.

The entire assumption that the government "must" do something is invalid.
I asked this before, but I dont recall yoru answer:YEAH! THE HEALTH CARE LOBBY IS WINNING! Oh man, we are so screwed. No public option means the Health Care industry has won and the right champions them at the expense of others. WOOHOO! Oh lord.
"that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
Yes, it is in fact, the goverments job to do something. That is not the preamble to corporate insurance companies policies.

Regarding your avatar:
How does having the right to something equate to having other people provide you the means to exercising that right?
OK, so I will ask you TWO questions:"that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

First:If the gov't feels it has the duty to take away those rights with things like the penal system...it also has the duty to ensure the rights of people who still "deserve" them.
Posted this last night but everyone is still celebrating so I will post it again.

It was just a test to see who's head would explode and who would celebrate. The public option is not dead, far from it.
The insures those rights with the penal system. Why have a criminal system with ant-murder laws, if it is not the gov'ts job to ensure the right to live.
Criminal laws do not 'ensure' anyone's ability to do anything.The insures those rights with the penal system. Why have a criminal system with ant-murder laws, if it is not the gov'ts job to ensure the right to live.
This is ridiculous.
If they go ahead with this, they are ignoring people and acting like they can do what they wish.
If Dems then revise their options in the face of a public backlash or dissatisfaction with what is being offered and seek to find a common ground. The Republicans and protestors were right. This move should be welcomed by those who opposed him previously.
In my view, this makes Obama even more likeable if he is willing to back down and change his stance. That is a quality found very rarely amongst politicans.
