Morning Must Reads -- All Obama, all the time | Washington Examiner: "Someone attached a graphic from the latest Kaiser Foundation poll to the health care story by Anne Kornblut and Michael Shear. The graphic suggests that 58 percent of Americans would be “angry” or “disappointed” if no health plan passes this year.

Even though the Post is consistently off kilter in its own polling (Latest Post/ABC Obama job approval: 51 percent. Latest NYT/CBS job approval: 46 percent), and the other Kaiser poll questions seemed to be begging respondents to back a plan, I’d still buy that 20 percent of Americans would be angry if no plan is passed and that another 38 percent would be disappointed.

But the question unasked and unanswered is: “Which plan?”

A lot of conservatives would be very disappointed to see another year go with the status quo on the employer-based system. Plenty of budget hawks would be disappointed if we do nothing on entitlement reform.

What the president, like the Post, is confusing are the impulses for general reform and for his reform in particular."
