The Blue Dogs and the centrists would've had to have left too.  It's
an interesting debate, though, that seems to come down to this:

What both sides agree on:

(1.) The current system is broken
(2.) Get healthcare out of the hands of employers
(3.) The cost curve is rising so fast that soon nothing will be able
to pay for it (see #1).


Where the core disagreement is:

* The right would like to take healthcare out of the hands of
employers and insurance companies and put it into the individual's
control.

* The left  would like to take healthcare out of the hands of
employers and insurance companies and put it into the government's
control (i.e., single payer).
