After a meeting with President Obama, Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that she believes a public option will be essential to passing a bill in the House of Representatives...for the time being anyhow.
"I believe that the public option will be essential to our passing a bill in the House of Representatives," Pelosi said. "[President Obama] said, if you have a better idea, put it on the table.
