...late, Obama seems to have taken some pointers from Johnson. Obama estimates that he is now devoting a third of his time to working to get a health bill passed. On July 22, Obama was struck by Washington Post columnist Steven Pearlstein's contention in the morning paper that even an imperfect health-reform plan beats the status quo.
