Good news.

I e-mailed him just yesterday asking him to go from undecided to NO.

I guess he heard me :)

[rawhide]

Yes, it was definitely your e-mail. Way to go!

[jakerobins]

He’s one of the Blue Dogs who’s scared of his chances of Re-Election......One of Nancy Pelosi’s butt boys that came into office “Pretending” to be Conservative in 2006...I’m nervous his NO won’t stand....

[abb]

How did he vote last time?

[Perdogg]

I think he voted yes.

[Edgar3]

Damn! My Congressvermin will do the right thing?!?!?! Well...

[StAnDeliver]

He isn’t going to be re-elected anyway.

[Kimmers]

You, are all powerful......

[AmishDude]

If it passes, it doesn’t matter. The “Blue Dog” thing is a lie and everybody knows it now. If it doesn’t pass, he’s probably safe.

"Yes, it was definitely your e-mail."

Hey, ya never know...... ;-)

[Blue Turtle]

WHy is Larry Sabato on National Review saying it will pass?

[SnakeDoctor]

Shuler has been a firm “no” for a while. The Hill’s Whip Count says the Republicans currently have 36 Democrats voting “no”, and need 38 to kill the bill.

They did not include DeFazio in that 36 (they still have him listed as “undecided”) ... which makes the number 37. They show 40 undecideds (including DeFazio) — which means we need ONLY ONE of the remaining 39 undecideds to kill the bill.

Applaud him now then dump him in November.

I think Pelosi is just letting him vote no to give him cover.

The Stupak Stooges have an presser scheduled for in the morning and I think they’ll all break for the HCR bill.

You don’t call a press conference to tell everyone you’re voting no.

JMHO

[GoCards]

Everyone is saying it will pass. It is passing.

[fortheDeclaration]

Boy, these numbers are all over the place!

It was said that we have the 217 solid 'no's' to kill the Bill.

[Jazz1968]

Because it will by any means necessary.

[fortheDeclaration]

They were ‘yes’s anyway in the last Bill.

[Frantzie]

Was he a yes? If he votes yes he will surely get booted out in Nov.
