Recently in the Senate Finance Hearing, Sen. Crapo (R., Idaho) again fought against the idea that opposing the Democratic health care plans means you’re in favor of the unsustainable status quo of health care costs. In fact, he again noted the legislation being debated will raise the cost of insurance premiums.

This is a perfectly logical objection to unfair Democratic attempts characterize the opposition to the bill. However, the fact that Crapo is still protesting this characterization this late in the health care debate only highlights the fact the GOP has done a poor job of removing the do-nothing label Democrats have put on them.
