They would rather have the Republicans put something out, then if they can persuade them to change it in a way that alienates the Republican base, that works for the Dem's, while in the meantime always being able to say to the Democratic base that it wasn't the Dem's fault that the plan had stuff the Dem's didn't like in it, since it is a "Republican" plan.
So please get off the high and mighty horse, you Dem's out there. Your party is MUCH more interested in the politics of this situation than they are in putting out a real plan to fix it.

Liberal pundits? The local Right Wing morning talk show host was railing the Republican proposals, not that he was for the Dems, he was railing them both, equally, as complete junk, which is correct.
The Dems DO HAVE SOMETHING ON PAPER - IT HAS BEEN LOOKED AT, enough to find out it didn't cut as much as they thought it would, just like the Reps. Difference is, they just aren't putting versions of it through, when they KNOW the Reps will just kill it (when they've said they will).... Truly, only a bunch of fools would waste time doing shit they know will never happen, all for the tv, all to make people think they're doing more, when in reality they're slowing it down.
Both sides are at equal fault here, neither are truly cutting crap and both want to fuck the citizen's over a little more. The only difference is how they're doing it, the result is the same either way.
You've been hoodwinked by what's going on....
