Some Republicans Secretly Working on Healthcare Reform?

In the video below, Chuck Todd thinks he would know if there were some republicans working on a bipartisan bill. Maybe not Chuck. The media seems to be focused only on tea baggers and the opposition to health reform and taking polls each time Obama speaks. What's with all the polls lately? Pollsters must be raking in the bucks.
NPR has a story that says the Senate bill may be coming soon:
Baucus and Conrad said the plan under consideration is coming in at less than $880 billion over a 10-year period. The plan would require all Americans to get health insurance — through an employer, a government program or on their own.

It would also include consumer protections pushed by President Obama that would prohibit companies from denying coverage because of pre-existing conditions or increasing the premiums of those who are sick.
