The Democrats and their supporters primarily blame the Republicans because they can't (politically) afford to pass these unpopular bills without Republican support ... If the Democrats used their filibuster proof majority, or used reconciliation to eliminate the possibility of a filibuster, every line of that massive bill that's full of questionable legislation will be "owned" by the Democrats. This means that throughout 2010 you can see ads on TV that say things like "How did we get a $2 Trillion deficit? Well the Democrats approved a healthcare bill that spent $350,000 to buy a single bed-pan."

How about this: "Democrats are out of control.  Tax and spend policies are running amok.  Canned pork: $17,000,000; Mozzerella cheese: $1,600,000; wild horse rehabilitation: 700 million dollars; electing representatives that spend like its Christmas--priceless.  Vote Republican and keep more of your taxpayer money."
