60% shouldn't be considered "skin of its teeth" and historically wasn't. It only is now because the Senate has become fairly dysfunctional.

I don't see how it's "partisan finger pointing" to explain why the lack of a public option is the responsibility of a single independent senator. It vaguely fits for stating that the 40 Republicans were never going to vote for any form of the ACA, but that's really just a statement of fact.
