How do you think Obama is handling health care reform?

I'm opening the floor to your guys. I want comments, and/or emails, telling me your thoughts on how Obama is handling health care reform. My thoughts have already been expressed on the blog, but I'm interested in what others think, including those who think the President is handling the issue correctly. Either post your opinion in the comments, or send me an email - I may, or may not, post the best ones on all sides in a future post. Thanks.

In that vein, here's an oped by Norm Ornstein, arguing that Obama has been quite savvy in how he's handled health care reform. I won't comment, you can read for yourself and post your thoughts in the comments:

[H]aving watched the lawmaking process in all its glory (and messiness) for 40 years, as well as having watched the meltdown of the Clinton health plan up close, I am seeing from the administration signs of savvy, not weakness. While health reform is far from a done deal -- and could still be derailed by the lack of a vote to replace that of Sen. Ted Kennedy, an economic double dip or an international crisis -- the issue is actually on a fairly predictable path that fits both the realities of public opinion and politics in an age of sharp partisan and ideological conflict.

The Obama strategy since his election has been based on a gimlet-eyed and pragmatic assessment of the prospects and limits afforded by public opinion and the political process. A naive president would have assumed that, after a landslide victory, huge coattails, swollen partisan majorities and a high approval rating, he could have it all -- and pushed hard and early for a far-reaching, soup-to-nuts upheaval of the health-care system. Obama and his strategists understood that would not work.

On the public front, it was clear that there was no groundswell for broad change....

Do you agree, do you disagree, are Obama's critics being too harsh, are his defenders being too naive? I want your thoughts on this. Thanks.
