Democrats genuinely want to pass health care reform as a policy.  Its been a major party goal for years.  Also, passing reform makes them appear stronger, more cohesive, and able to govern.  Not passing reform confirms all the GOP propaganda about Democrats' inability to govern.  So really the answer is both; they want to pass reform because they believe in the cause, and they need to pass reform to have any hope this November.
