Bipartisanship porn has a deadline:
‘Sometime in September we’re going to have to make an assessment’ about whether to keep trying to negotiate with Republicans, he told MSNBC.
Obama said he ‘would prefer Republicans working with us’ but that getting his main priorities for a health care overhaul are more important. It represents a marked change from the emphasis Obama placed on bipartisanship when he launched his campaign for a health care overhaul at a White House summit in March.
Though I think we're already past the zero barrier here. The Republicans will not vote for healthcare reform -- ever. Why continue to pretend that bipartisanship will suddenly change Republican minds on this thing?
