I've spent the last few days after Netroots Nation with AFSCME's Highway to Health Care bus tour which is going to cross about 10 states in the month of August. What I've seen is pretty inspiring. During that time I've met a lot of Americans who've come out for rallies, concerts or who happen to walk by press events with elected officials talk about their desire for a public option and health insurance reform. In that time I've met very few people who oppose the public option, and no one that comes to mind who wasn't part of a local tea party group organized to disrupt the tour. And I was just on the bus for three days for the Arkansas and Louisiana legs of the tour.
