Yes, There Are Many Democrats With Spines

...And brains.

Congressman Anthony Weiner, for example. Today on CNBC:

BECKY QUICK: So you would not vote for a bill that made it through, if it got through...

WEINER: Not only I but I think there's probably a hundred members of the House, who believe for various reasons that you need to have something to bring down prices. Otherwise you're basically, what you're doing, you're keeping the cost arc. . . the CBO agrees with that. You know as it was, I think the public plan had been watered down so much. So if the President thinks he's cutting a deal to get Senate votes, he's probably losing House votes.

This is why I remain confident that the book hasn't been closed on the public option. Not by a long shot.

Don't panic. Activate. Contact Congressman Weiner and tell him you've got his back:
