Pelosi Reportedly Lacks Votes for 'Robust Public Option'

Fox News: The shortfall, according to Politico.com, increasingly points to a compromise for a “trigger” option for a government plan on the heels of a private White House meeting on Thursday.



Pelosi told reporters Thursday that House Democrats are continuing to count the votes, but assured that a government-run insurance plan of some kind will be included.



“The robust public option is in my view a preferred way to go,” she said. “It’s not the only way to go and at the end of the day we will have a public option in our legislation.”
