Team Obama backs off public option again

Rahm Emanual himself said public option isn’t important, just creating competition among private insurance, ignoring — deliberately, I’m sure — that this is one of the powers of public option, single payer national healthcare.
“They’ve made an assessment reform is going to happen, so it’s better to be part of that than not,” Mr. Emanuel said (of private insurers).

Well, we know Rahmbo isn’t that naïve, even speaking Kumbaya for his boss, so suspect a fishing-for-campaign-dollars fix is in.
