I almost believe this is part of Obama's plan. To make sure he did everything possible to find a bipartisan agreement until he is forced to use the reconciliation process and pass whatever he wants, and then shove this partisanship of the Republicans in their faces come mid-term elections and beyond.

The Democrats are already facing the possibility of losing one of the two houses in Congress come November elections. The Public does not want this Healthcare bill. Passing it is at the peril of those in power currently.
We haven't truly had politicians represent us in decades. They're all tied up in special interests. Whether it be Corporatins, Lobbyists, Unions, Foreign Interests, etc.
