Josh isn’t too optimistic on the public option happening, but given the growing tsunami of Democrats coming out in strong support of it in the Senate, there is a good chance something could happen. I also think the recent news of insurance companies jacking up rates by enormous amounts in a bunch of states could give this a real nudge in the right direction.

So hold on, this week could be really interesting.
