Flasch - you'll never convince those on the right of the necessity of it being a brokered deal. they will continue to buy into the "spin" of the right that the dems shoulda passed it on their own without any republican involvement, notwithstanding the fact that a 50/50 deal was agreed upon and the house republicans essentially backed out at the last minute.
you can talk till you're blue in the face but there will be continue to be a segment that thinks that the party in power should have pushed it through without the other side.
