"What's happened is that has become sort of a Rorschach test for the left and the right," the White House official said. "There are those on the left who believe this would be the nose under the tent for single-payer. There are those on the right who suspect that this could be the nose under the tent for single-payer. The left and the right love to do that kind of minuet. I don't want to denigrate those views so much...
