“When I think of the health care bill and all the work that went into it--the work that went into it is not that important, it is the product that came out. When he says the American people are against it, that was actually quite true for a year and a half, maybe almost 2 years, because we were in the process of making the bill and it was kind of like making sausage, and people turned against it. But now it is going in quite the opposite direction. Now as people begin to get some of the benefits, they understand some of the conditions they will be unbonded from, that they won't be slaves anymore to costs determined by others who don't care about their health care, I think the momentum is swinging.”
