Listening to Obama's Labor Day speech to the friendly crowd at the AFL-CIO picnic in Cincinatti, Mrs. Daddy distinctly heard him say that the public option would be in "a basket of options." My earlier opinion that backing away from the public option was just a trial balloon is confirmed. Reuters confirms.
You can't trust any pronouncements from this administration, they will always seek the path of least resistance. I also don't think this speech is the last word on public option either. If significant resistance builds in the Senate and they can't get a bill passed, it will "again" be dropped.
