New Name for the Public Option

The Associated Press: Pelosi: Health care 'public option' needs new name

In an appearance at a Florida senior center Monday, the Democratic leader referred to the so-called public option as "the consumer option." Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Florida Democrat, appeared by Pelosi's side and used the term "competitive option."

Pelosi says the term has been misrepresented and creates the impression that taxpayers will foot the bill for health care.
