Jonathan Chait once again flags right-leaning politicians/pundits pretending to give Obama "advice," encouraging him to give up on health care reform. What's the point of this exercise? You think Obama's going to bail on his primary domestic policy priority because Sean Hannity and Dick Morris are telling him to?
Then again, the tenor of the arguments tends to be that if health care passes, it's terrible for Obama, but If health care doesn't pass, it's also terrible for Obama. Had he not even taken up the issue, I'm sure, that also would've been bad for Obama.
