National Broadband Plan - Too much, Too Little? Just Right?

[Commentary] The National Broadband Plan may be too ambitious for many inside Washington to fully embrace in terms of executing legislation and making funds available. The average lawmaker, particularly with elections coming up this year, could care less about broadband. These are the ones most susceptible to lobbyists' attempts to neuter the plan, which make no mistake, they are in full Destruct mode. The telecom and cable industry will mine the lofty rhetoric while trying to kill anything they feel threatens profits. On the other hand, the plan is not ambitious enough for some when you consider one glaring vulnerability. In some people's mind, they feel it does not grab by the throat the main source of our many problems with broadband - the lack of competition and the ease with which the incumbents can kill competition.
