Over the last couple of days I've been working through my frustration over what's happening with health care reform in Congress.

In my view, the bills still in play are still worth passing - even given their obvious weaknesses. Why? Because this entire health care reform episode has been not an exercise in policy analysis, but rather a lesson in politics.

That was a weak strategy to begin with because insurers have only 3 ...
