It looks like Obama may get his wish and get his so-called "healthcare reform" passed after all. I was reading that Obama and others have been negotiating with the right wingers in their own party, such as Nelson, in order to get the 60 votes needed to overcome a Republican filibuster. But the problem is, what they are trying to ram down everyone's throat isn't reform in the least. The healthcare bill isn't going to help provide insurance to those who need it; it's simply going to turn the people who couldn't afford it in the first place into criminals who must pay fines. It's just a big scam that we will all come to regret. "Obamacare" is little more than a gift to the insurance companies and other greedy people within the medical industry, at taxpayer expense. If it were a choice between this healthcare bill, or no bill, I think I'd prefer they pass nothing in to law.
Here's a good Op-Ed about healthcare written by Howard Dean here:

I have to say I agree with every word of it, because it's true.
