Baucus explained that he liked much about the idea of a public option but that he knew a health care bill containing the provision would fail to win enough support in the full Senate to overcome a Republican filibuster.

I thought having the 60 members of the Senate gave them a filibuster-proof majority? I’m so sick of this. Democrats need to woman up and bust balls on this. I’m talking bigtime payback for being highschool-pranked by the Republicans for the last 16 disgraceful years.

But they, obviously, aren’t in the mood.
