Re: I like Capuano but
Correct. He voted against Stupak but FOR healthcare-with-Stupak.
NOW, NARAL, and other womens' rights groups have taken the position that healthcare-with-Stupak is not worth getting. It's too big a compromise of womens' rights. I tend to agree.
Interestingly yesterday 538 ran a piece (

) showing that much of the growing opposition to the current healthcare bill is coming from the left, who feel it gives away too much - that it's less a "compromise" and more a "surrender."
This is the position I took in my own LJ posting about a month ago:
