The president and the two congressional leaders are so blinded by their
ideology, so bullheaded in accomplishing a radical transformation of
health care, that they've discarded the common sense and instinct for
self-preservation that usually governs politicians' actions. Instead,
this triumvirate makes rationalizations for support of a proposal that's
been DOA almost from its inception.

Yet all three Democratic leaders are taking a calculated gamble: if they
can impose govern-run health care, they'll establish the framework for
Democratic dominance for years to come, even if that means short-term
election losses. Once government-run health care is a fait accompli, all
three believe practical minded Americans will switch from outright
opposition to trying to "improve" the government-run health care model,
similar to what Americans have done for decades with failing public
school systems.
