All they got was 216 votes? One vote could have saved the country? Sh*t!!!!!!!
219 votes
Know what "logrolling" is? Once they have the 216 they need to pass, they can let the others vote "no" to give themselves cover in November.
Look at it this way: any Dem is a "yes" if needed. Some have a higher price than others, but since that price is paid with YOUR money, it's no chitin off the Speaker's carapace to ante up.
