Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid Announces Support for Government-Run Health-Care Option

It might not be considered robust enough by some more liberal members of the Democratic Party, but Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-NV, appears set to announce (at 3:15pm) that he's chosen to put a national public option, giving states the chance to opt out, in his base bill that he will bring to the floor as early as next week. This is a pretty big deal, as any kind of public option seemed dead on arrival for quite some time.
