And if that happens the reconciliation report won't pass the House. The Dems lost 39 votes with the Stupak amendment in place, pulling out all the stops and cashing in all the chips. Three more defections and their bill goes down. Even if overwhelming majority of the pro-life Dems cave in the end, they can't pass a reconciliation report that doesn't include the Stupak language.
They probably also can't pass a reconciliation report that does include that language. 41 Dems have signed a letter saying that Stupak is a deal breaker for them. If just three of them switch sides to oppose the final version out of “pro-choice” principle, the bill would die.
Pelosi papered over the abortion divide in her caucus long enough to get a vote on Obamacare through the House. But the divide hasn't gone away and the day of reckoning is just postponed. There is no health care bill that has majority support in the House and so, in the end, no final bill can pass.
Pelosi and Hoyer (probably the latter because he has 40 IQ points on Nancy)decided their best bet was to get some version of Obamacare out of the House and let it die in the Senate. Then poor Harry can take the blame.
What this story tells us is that the Dems are just spinning their wheels. They're no closer to a heath care bill now then they were before Saturday's vote.
I pray that you are correct, Sir!
