The health care debate in the Senate could take weeks, and Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) is threatening to filibuster if the public option isn’t stripped out of the bill. But, for the time being anyhow, Health Care for America Now isn’t making an issue of that potential flashpoint, and is instead thanking her and her Arkansas colleague Mark Pryor for allowing debate in the first place.
Interestingly, in Nebraska, the group is running an ad lambasting Sen. Mike Johanns, but has no kind words for Ben Nelson, who also decided to allow debate.
