Yesterday the Senate Finance Committee voted not to include a public health care option in the health care reform bill that they will present to the full Senate.
As the liberal watchdog Media Matters pointed out, more Americans believe in the existence of UFOs (34 percent, according to a 2007 Associated Press poll) than oppose the public option (26 percent, according to a recent New York Times poll). Even among Republicans, opposition to the public option (42 percent) is outweighed by support (47 percent). Polls consistently find that the public option is more popular than health reform itself.

I've seen opposing figures. Statistics are tricky.
No kidding, we had Molander, remember?
