I can't believe it. (Really.) We're actually winning on the public option for health care reform.

We're actually winning on the public option. I don't believe it. And we may have Harry Reid to thank for it. I can't believe that either. If this all pans out, then we should remember this during what looks to be Harry's tough reelection campaign.

I think its because of ads like the one.

Remember: the pro public option campaign is mostly if not entirely fueled by the Internet. How powerful has the Internet grown? We're beating the corporate media which didn't lobby for the public option and/or ignored it (See the propaganda model devised by Chomsky and Herman.) and the right wing corporate media which was openly hostile to it. We're winning. I still can't believe. The best wrap ups are from Chris Bowers and Mike Lux from Open Left.
