The problem with the gang of six plan is that here is no way it can be put together rated and brought to the floor by Aug. 2nd and get enough votes in the house by repubs and dems. The house has already passed a plan and the senate will attempt to bring it to a vote on it Saturday and if it passes Obama says he will veto it. For him and the democrats that vote against it that would be political suicide and put the Republicans in the drivers seat for the 2012 elections. But for some strange reason I feel he does not care. would the strange reason be that he explicitly stated about a week ago that he didn't care?

So even without the details, some critics are savaging the plan. Will more details help, or hurt, the “Gang of Six” cause?
So this could mean that without sufficient details to backup the Gang of Six Proposal this plan is not going anywhere. Plus when congress sees the details will the majority go for it??? Who knows but so far it looks that may not happen.. The far right and the far left are miles apart on health care, social security, medicare, medicaid, and tax increases..
