They will not get the vote neither in the House nor in the Senate.

I agree with you.
But I still hope she continues the push.

Unbelievable. Let them self destruct and face a bloodbath come November if they try it.

Yes I want the stupid liberals to keep this issue alive all year long because it will bring a supreme disaster on them in this coming November elections.

I, too, hope she continues the push.
I suspect the Brown victory has scared off a few votes. Doubt if she even has enough for reconciliation. If she and the other Dems don’t like what happened in Massachusetts....well, they ain’t seen nuthin’ yet.

They’ve waited their entire adult lives for this moment and they aren’t ready to let 100,000 pesky votes in Massachusetts get in the way of fulfilling their destiny. They haven't spent a day as an adult in their entire, miserable, collective lives.
No matter. These will make great indictments at their trials.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Unbelievable. Let them self destruct and face a bloodbath come November if they try it. Here's the thing, these people are like suicide bombers at this point. They are so hell bent on getting something - anything passed to secure some sort of twisted spot in the history books that they are willing to forgo another term in order to do it. Reid himself alluded to this last year.

Re-election is going to be the least of their worries.

If they do this last year’s DC Tea Party will look like a few tourist walking around. The national meltdown will be of epic proportions.

I thought that if this goes through the Senate via the nuclear option, each line will have to pertain to the budget and can be stopped by point of order motion. How then could you get the insurance purchasing mandate for example under this process?
This bill would be a swiss cheese joke.
To: grumpygresh
Kent Conrad (or Byron Dorgan??) made the same point today.

Ain’t gonna happen.
The Blue Dogs are leaving Pelosi like Christ left the Jews, and this whole deal is as dead as dreams.
If she tries to pull a stunt like this she puts the entire Democratic caucus at risk this Fall, and the voters are in just the mood it takes to clean them all out of the House.

Republicans can refuse to attend any and all legislative sessions, denying Congress the quorum it needs to legally conduct official business.
