Obama On Health Care

From today's news conference, via TPM, which promises to keep on top now that its Capitol Hill reporter is back:
but despite refusing to insist on the public option, Obama was as combative as I've seen him on the greater issue of reform. He dismissed the idea that the public option would drive insurance companies out of business, noting that the argument is usually articulated by free marketers who contend that the private sector always outperforms the government. And he made sure to note, citing recent polls, that public opinion is on his side.
