Rocks, hard places

In Texas, it's referred to as not knowing whether to shit or go blind. Obama and his party are in a bind, as described by E.J. Dionne. The best thing they can do is let the Senate GOP filibuster the health care bill to death and call it a night. That's as close as we're gonna get to a win-win solution. Once that monster's off the table, maybe independent voters will calm down and something constructive will get done before November.
