No Public Option with a Trigger

    TPM's front page this weekend teases the story that the White House is negotiating with Sen. Olympia Snowe for her support in a compromise that might garner her vote and satisfy progressives. The teaser link asks "Public Option With Trigger In The Works?"

    My short answer: Neigh. Any reform that doesn't provide an immediate alternative to private insurance is just more horse shit and will leave us no better off than the late Roy Rogers' late stuffed mount.
