Howard Dean on Public Option: 'Whatever We Call It Is Irrelevant'

CBS News: Liberal former Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean, one of the leading proponents of the public option, said on the CBS “Early Show” this morning he was satisfied with the plan.



“I judge all these plans by whether they move things forward or move things backward. This moves things forward,” he said. “This is still real reform. Whatever we call it is irrelevant.”
