Reconciliation a "Political Kamikaze Mission"

Senator Lamar Alexander made an appearance on "This Week" with Elizabeth Vargas to discuss the political ramifications of Democrats passing health care via reconciliation. Alexander declared it a Kamikaze mission and explains in the following clip:




I am still astounded, though I shouldn't be I guess, the Democrats are so willing to even consider taking this to reconciliation. Kamikaze is a great word for such a move. Democrats would likely lose power for many many years. It seems they are increasingly desperate to do this though. The big question is how many of the vulnerable Democrats who are sure to be sacrificed to the health care gods before Obama are willing to offer themselves up as human sacrifice. We've seen them do it before though I wouldn't be surprised if they would do it again.
