Even the president,however, is walking back from the public option, as is the country. The legislative delay beyond the August recess will further imperil it. The more the public learns about what more government control would mean for them, the more wary and skeptical they become. For those of us who do not endorse Obamacare, this is a welcome development. See www.MDWhistleblower.blogspot.com
