For GOP, it’s not about healthcare but Obama

South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint has now explicitly said so:
“If we’re able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo,” DeMint said Friday during a conference call with conservative activists. “It will break him.”

And, that’s the bottom line why the GOP doesn’t offer its own plan.

It’s also a measure of how tawdry? (that’s not quite the right word)… how amateurish American politics is to, say, the British House of Commons.

Anyway, now that DeMint has made that clear, it’s good that the Democratic National Committee is joining folks like MoveOn and running ads against its own senators that don’t fall in line.
