But you miss the point. People in favor of change will back a smaller change that moves in their direction. Abortion foes don't oppose a partial-birth ban on the grounds that it's half a loaf. Gun control advocates didn't oppose the Brady Bill on the basis that it didn't get the job done. If there was a nationwide thirst for socialized medicine, the Clinton plan would have had the support it needed, even if only as a first step.
