When Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid make it clear that their attitude is, 'Look, we won the election and, whether these guys participate or not, we don't care,' they made that very clear. The Republicans have offered very specific ideas, such things as medical malpractice reform; they've talked about portability where you could buy insurance across state lines, they've talked about making sure there were incentives for people to go into general medical practice.
