with the vacancies, Pelosi now needs 217. It’s gonna be close, and the GOP must make a huge splash about Medicare Advantage being dessimated.

They should also have Coburn a key point man on Thursday b/c he knows every minutae of health care, he’s a doctor, and he won’t be intimidated by Obama.

Yes, you're right. My math was faulty.

Right now, most political scientists believe that 30-40 seats are in play in the House. If this passes, there could conceivably 60, or more seats in play. I just don't think she's going to find the votes.
