Peggy Noonan on the “healthcare summit”, well worth reading.
Several readers have written to ask me why I've stopped commenting on the healthcare debates. I'm disgusted with the whole thing. It seems to me that the American people have made it abundantly clear that they don't want Obamacare or anything even remotely like it – and yet our elected representatives are pressing on anyway.

I still believe it's unlikely to pass, as too many Democratic congresscritters are afraid for their own reelection (Scott Brown drove that lesson home in a vivid way). If I'm wrong about this, and the Democrats do ram this thing down our throats, then I believe they're going to pay the piper at the ballot box, come November – after which we'd likely see Republican majorities in both houses.
