Yeah, Where Is The Progressive Debate On Obamacare?

A few places, but not in the forefront of even the professional left establishment.  The debate would be pretty short; Obamacare sucks as policy, as insurance policy or health care policy.  If the best some decent folks can do is pray quietly for a sufficiently messy situation that some sort of serious (read single payer) triage is necessary, then we are seriously frakked.  For now, the best the Dems can hope for is a robust political/narrative turnaround that puts the Republicans back in their outhouse. 

Update: Jon Walker offers his opinion.  Fixes to Obamacare, the policy, the health care part, not the politics part, are just not something the very serious people talk about.
