[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uh, some of the Dems were very distraught while discussing it on IG. Tim Miller isn't a Democrat, and sometimes it's going to show. [/quote]

They say if you aren't attractive enough to make it in acting to go into politics. They are actors acting. They are not distraught. They have the No vote on their record that they needed, but no longer have people pressuring them to end the shutdown AND [b]they get to continue dangling the healthcare issue to motivate their voters.[/b] This is exactly what they all wanted, and anyone telling you otherwise is lying to you.

Does that still work? There's no progress on healthcare. Biden and Harris were barely touching it. There's so much noise about so many issues but it really doesn't seem like Democrats (and obviously Republicans don't give a shit so not my point!) want anything beyond more subsidies here and there. That's not a fix or a promise to change anything in a meaningful way.[/quote]

I agree that neither side is interested in offering a real solution, but like Republicans used to have abortion, Democrats do like having healthcare as their own voter catnip. And the reality is that voters do care about this issue and do want a solution, and don't really have the luxury of not electing the one party at least pretending to give this issue the attention it deserves.
