It was still worth it. You have to take risks in politics. Did LBJ pushing for Civil Rights cost in 1966 and 1968? Yeah I’m sure it did but it was the right thing to do. Obama will go down in history as being able to get health care reform done and that’s a pretty big feather in his cap.
- Someone who won’t lose his insurance due to having a heart condition.

If McCain really has flipped as reports are claiming, most of the ACA is likely to go away. All that effort and all that political capital expended will have been for naught.

If that happens, Obama will be left with almost nothing as a legacy other than his skin’s melanin content and his naivete about Russian interference in our elections.
