How many Blue Dogs voted for Pelosicare?

Trick question. I'd answer 0. If you voted for Pelosicare you are NOT economically conservative and hence, not a "blue dog".

Maybe the ones who voted for it bought Pelosi’s line that the reason Democrats lost the house in 1994 was because they didn’t pass health care.

The rep from my district, a flaming liberal didn’t vote for it, so I think it had more to do with who would end up being sacraficed rather than principle.

Blue dogs being conservative is a myth..
If they had any sense they wouldn't even be democrats..

And the next question is, how many of them are vulnerable in 2010?

In total: 50% (26) of the supposedly fiscally conservative Blue Dogs voted for Pelosicare.

Only because the abortion amendment was thrown in. I'll bet most would've gone against it if not for that.

How many? Just enough to get the bill thru and still come out looking “bipartisan”. “Bipartisanship” is for....wussies.

It doesn't matter...the math was done and the fix was in. Now they're going to "nuclear option" it through the Senate...so if you need any life-saving surgery procedeures you'd better get them done now.

You might consider shipping grandma and grandpa off to Costa Rica or somewhere to escape the death panels.

The only way to stop this might be to just refuse to sign up, and let them try and jail about 150 million of us. After all, they're trying to free prisoners to served in obama's brownshirt corps, the food is free, and you can even attend college in there.

A better solution is to reverse the trick on pelosi and vote ALL DEMOCRATS (AND RINOS) OUT IN 2010...blue dog or not. That is the only sure way to stop this liberal steamroll.

They impose "ZERO TOLERANCE" our schools, so we need to carry that to the Goverment...zero tolerance for socialism and communism. Obama likes to "shout out" people, so let's band together and shout them all out.

You know, that list reminded me of my encounter with Heath Shuler, Blue Dog Democrat from North Carolina, in the hallway of the Cannon office building a couple of days after the 9/12 DC march. It started with my comment, “You’re not going to let Nancy Pelosi lead you around by the nose on this health care bill, are you?” It was a 5 minute conversation that seemed to catch him offguard and make him uncomfortable. He made an effort to marginalize and cast some suspicion on the Tea Party people. “What group are you with?”, he asked as he scrutinized my “Don’t Tread on Me” lapel pin. My last image is of him running away from the conversation when I stood my ground. And as we made our last comments, of him standing halfway in the elevator door with the door repeatedly trying to close and hitting him in the back and reopening. Maybe that conversation played a small part in his “No” vote after all.

As far as I am concerned every last one of them voted for it. Because it is rigged - the RATs would extract exactly the number of votes they needed, hence they are all guilty. Voting for a RAT is the same as voting for Marxism - any and every RAT.
