As health care reform limps along, the house is finally moving forward on an actual bill.
And now that bill has gotten AARP support.

It may now throw a monkey wrench into the GOP FUD on health care reform, especially if democrats force apples to apples comparisons between the existing and new proposed reforms.
And I predict big business, at least the set of companies that still provide health care coverage for employees, will start to see ways to cut their health care costs and therefore climb aboard.
And an AARP endorsement will certainly not hurt. After all, Senior citizens have the clearest view of how screwed up private for profit insurance companies are.
Without a filibuster the house does not have in its rules, the GOP may find the house bill unstoppable, but as the start of the 11/2010 dawns, the Senate will be under increasing pressure to show the American people some thing positive.
