Public Option lives despite lies

At 1:15 Chuck Todd, Political Director of NBC says the groups opposing the Public Option have not had a big campaign for their side aiming to kill Public Option. Apparently Chuck forgot that they were spending $1.5 million per day in advertising over the entire summer. Couple this with the campaign by FOX News and GOP advisors for the teaparties over the summer plus the lies of death panels, killing grandma, killing veterans and the like. He also forgot about the tens of tens of millions of dollars handed to our elected representatives for mysterious reasons...but don't call them BRIBES...call them...uh...mysterious reasons. The campaign to kill Public Option cannot be anything other than one of the most highly organized movements Washington has ever seen.

Chuck completely misses the point the numbers show us. The best way to put this would be to say that the buried headline here would be the following -

"Public Option takes deep breath and flourishes despite lies, obfuscations, misdirection and big money corporate BRIBES to kill it. America is speaking."

Let's see, all the other polls that favor the public option polled 13% more democrats than republican and they never even used the words "public option" in the question. I wonder how bias this poll is from the National Barack Channel.
