Default The future of Obama's Presidency depends on this...?

OK, can some of you Obama supporters explain this to me:

Both the US citizenry and its elected reps are pretty evenly divided on the
health care bill as it presently is before the Congress (in this case, I don't
see what a percentage point either way truly means insofar as this not being a
well-supported measure). *Therefore, for Obama to attempt to "ram" this (or
anything else with similar numbers) through seems to fly directly into the face
of his campaign promises. *Moreover, when something requires THIS much "wheeling
and dealing" with things in no way related to health care, it would seem to be
all the more iffy. *Anyway, here's the thing, at least to me - if Obama truly
wants to be a healing, non-partisan influence, he'd be more worried about
getting necessary reform that is widely supported legislated and less worried
about his own political future. *And he might wish to be the spearhead of
cleaning up the existing healthcare mess before he is the spearhead of piling
more **** on top of the existing pile. *OTOH, maybe not...
