Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) likes the buy-in compromise. But that’s not entirely surprising to me. He’s a Schumer protege and it’s probably Schumer’s deal. More striking to me is that Bernie Sanders says the new deal may well be better than the watered-down Public Option that was on offer. And Howard Dean gives it the thumbs up too.
Harkin doesn’t like it; but he says he’ll support it.
