Watch this video of Carper on CNN yesterday — captured by Jed over at dKos:
Oh yes, this will work. Cave in on the contentious 20% so the obstructionists can create another 20% to, you know, obstruct on. While I am really clear that Senator Carper is definitely sitting at the table for this health reform bill on behalf of his pharmaceutical and insurance funders — not on behalf of the people of Delaware — I am stunned that he can be so stupid as to still think that there is any bipartisanship to be had here. His so-called GOP friends are just looking to stop as much as they can — so how is it that Carper cannot see that he isn’t being played here? And played Big Time, too.
