I suggested this morning that (1) the “co-op compromise,” as an alternative to the “public option,” was DOA, given the intransigence of Republican leadership; and (2) the public option — perhaps with tweaks, but largely as proposed in House Commerce and Senate HELP — would likely become law.

Others — here, here, and here — suggest a non-public-option compromise remains viable and/or advisable.

UPDATE: The so-called “Gang of Six,” if they’re listening to anyone, are apparently listening to the latter voices, not mine. Good.
