Then explain the following to me - and I'm sorry if that sounds sarcastic, it's not intended that way.

Why, on WCVB-TV this morning, was Stephen Lynch (D-MA) changing his vote from yes to no? In an interview he said he was changing his mind because of all the calls he got from insurers and pharmaceuticals IN FAVOR OF THE BILL.

The cynic in me says that the back-room deals look bad on the surface, so as to 'sell' the public, but in reality just change some rules and CEMENT the insurers position. Remember, the public option is GONE.
