This needs to be quoted 100x.

Yes, it's damned if you do, damned if you don't. That said, the polling data does not reflect the idea that this is political suicide. People want health care reform passed. Lots of people have reservations about this reform, but the data consistently shows that people trust the Democrats over the Republicans on this subject, and that they'd rather have something passed than nothing.
