To the Editor:
Senator Rockefeller duly held his peace while chairman Baucus elaborated on his vision for healthcare reform. Now the deliberative function of the Senate requires that he speak. The gang of six held out no real prospect of bipartisan reform, because the Republicans in both houses are bent on handing president Obama a tactical defeat. Rather, the gang of six accepted millions from the Insurance industry to split a few key centrists away from any plan that included the dreaded Public Option. Senator Rockefeller's timing is strategic. His message is timeless.
