Halperin: 7 Reasons Not to Bet Against Health Reform

President Obama's push for health care reform is hitting heavy turbulence, but Mark Halperin of Time lays out 7 reasons not to bet against him:

• Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and all the committee chairs "are still on board."
• Get a bill to conference committee, and the press will stop "obsessing over every setback" and looking toward the finish line.
• "Rahm Emanuel knows what's possible."

• GOP senators Chuck Grassley and Olympia Snowe "haven't given up" on the Finance Committee.
• The health care industry and businesses "are still largely supportive."
• Look for labor unions to give in at a critical moment.
• Obama himself still isn't rattled.
