At public meetings with lawmakers, angry voters denounced the supposed creeping influence of government in their lives. Democrats, meanwhile, struggled to sell a pricey overhaul amid a steep economic slump. Despite the poisonous debate, the pro-reform camp notched victories. On Nov. 7, the House passed a sweeping bill by a slim, five-vote margin. With Senators still haggling over their $848 billion measure, a final vote may be pushed...
