Harry Reid Wants to Kill Healthcare Reform

This is not good.

The Senate Democratic leader indicated Tuesday that lawmakers may not complete health care legislation this year, missing President Barack Obama’s deadline on his signature issue and pushing debate into a congressional election year.

Nope. Not good. As Oliver notes, if it doesn’t get done this year, healthcare reform is dead.

    What is so amazing to me is this playing right into the Republicans’ hands. I just don’t get it–why the Dems in the Senate do not realize that inaction and/or watered down bills will bring them right back in the minority.
