In a few minutes Barack Obama will sign the health care reforms into law. Once he does that, we will have two jobs. The first is to help educate people about the positive elements of these reforms so that they become an asset to Democrats running for office this fall. The second is to agitate for improvements in the reforms, because they fall short of what we need, and because there are political vulnerabilities (the mandate) that can only be fixed by providing a public option.
I hope we can put unproductive bitching behind us.
