NO! Bush number 1 learned what happens when you
compromise with democrats.
The Pubbies did exactly the right thing.
This whole fiasco now rightly belongs to
the democrats and may they curse the day
they voted for it.

Anyone who thinks that the Dems would have actually compromised on anything apparently hasn’t been paying attention the last thirty years. They say one thing vote on a bill, gut in committee with the house, and then do what they want anyway. There is no compromise with those who are treasonous
To: Delacon
Republicans should never compromise. Compromise is condescension, or in basic English … surrender.

What a load!
The Republicans had alternative bills...they were not considered.
Joining the rats would have given the ruling party someone other than Mr. Bush to blame?
Let em live or die with this bill. When people start paying MORE for healthcare that can only be compared to the VA, or county hospitals, all the good intentions in the world won’t save em.

The short answer is NO! But how would they be able to when the democrat majority wouldn’t even let them in on the debate?
To: Delacon
There is no compromise on this issue. Any more than compromising with the terrorists. Both issues bring the same conclusion, death.

I think the point is that elected republicans have been comprimising like a drunk whore at a convention of Clinton impersonators.

"Should Republicans Have Compromised to Produce a Less-Bad Healthcare Bill?"
Compromising in any way with what the left has become is total, political suicide for conservatives.
The truth is, liberals don't want you to compromise, they are looking for "partners in crime" - someone to share the blame when their ideas fail miserably, as they usually do.
If conservatives want to win, and keep their seats, they'd better adapt a "my way or the highway" stance when it comes to the liberals...liberals will use you up and spit you out...no matter how great they smile.
Also, liberals have made no bones in the past 50 years that if a conservative proposed it, or is for it, they are against it, doing what it takes to defile the idea, the bill, the law, or the author.
Liberals need to see nothing but a stone wall until they no longer exist.
