Shocking absolutely no one, Senator Lincoln has turned tail and ran on the front of health care. She's not only backpedaling on her previous support of the public option, she's vowing to work against it now. How sad and expected.
Obviously, someone must step up in the great state of Arkansas and make sure she is not the Democratic option for the Senate next year. But being the state it is, it's going to be very hard to unseat her. It will take a statesman whose love with their constituents is strong enough to weather having to tell them they are wrong once in a while. And I think that person is President Bill Clinton.
