Notice that this was not Pelosi saying this on camera. It was simply Harwood claiming he spoke with Pelosi, and claiming she said they had the votes. Also, Harwood is the only one claiming Pelosi said this.
It’s a crock of sh!t. Don’t know what Harwood’s game is, but I doubt Pelosi actually said this to him.
Obamacare is dead. Pelosi might have a 100 votes, and remember, 60 of these are hard-core card-carrying American Socialists.
The rest wish to have some tiny chance at being re-elected. The same holds true in the Senate. Scott Brown’s election to replace Ted Kennedy in blue, blue Massachusetts was a wake-up call for the Dims akin to getting doused with a five gallon bucket of ice water and smacked with a two by four at the same time.
Ah, but the socialists want a public option. They may not be so amenable to the Senate bill.
