If I am right about that, we will then have a room full of evil people like Debby Wasserman Schultz (to sneak in abortion again among the thousands of pages) and Rahm Emanuel conspiring to make it worse than the bill from either chamber.
After that, it will be "Hurry up and vote without reading it!" again. When the senate and house vote on the "fixed" conference bill, we had better be ready to get on the phones. I believe it will already be an election year by then.
As much as I would like to believe otherwise, I believe that the most of the same buffoons will come back in 2012 to vote for Obama again, even with high unemployment and a very unpopular health care bill, so it would be good if they don't succeed now.
This is what makes it interesting. Democrats must accomplish the near impossible.
If they do pass a bill it will be even further watered down (from current bills ) than the current bill. Progressive liberals will be forced to swallow even more crap (ie compromises) than just the abortion amendment. The bill cannot move to the left, because most liberals are in safe seats, moderates are not. We swallowed crap for eight years and have to live with results, now it’s their turn.
In 1992 I thought Clinton/Democrats was the end of world. It wasnt.
No predictions for 2012 till late 2010.
