House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said Thursday he expects Democrats' healthcare bill to hit the House floor "within days."
Boehner said he expects the debate over healthcare to begin, in earnest, as Democrats in the House prepare to take up the health bill passed by the Senate last Christmas Eve.
"I think we're within days of this bill coming to the floor of the House," Boehner said during an appearance on Fox News. "It's pretty clear that the president, Speaker Pelosi, and Majority Leader Reid want to do everything they can to jam this bill through the House and the Senate to get it to the president's desk."

Sounds like another Sunday Midnight vote about to happen.
Limbaugh has been saying this morning that ‘reconciliation’ will not happen.... It is being ‘sold’ by the leadership to convince the dumber House Democrats that they will have ‘cover’ if they vote for the bill.
But in reality, if the House passes this thing there is no need for reconciliation: 0bama can sign it into law immediately.
I don’t understand these procedural tricks well enough to know if that is true, but it does make sense to me.
And be mopped up and flushed down the commode within minutes
One thing we know Democrats won’t call a vote unless they have the votes. We are so screwed.
Rush just said that if they vote on the senate bill in the house since it already passed the Senate it is a DONE DEAL and Obama just has to sign it.....CALL YOUR DELEGATES NOW!!!
Sen. Lindsey Graham explained it pretty well last night:

Thanks!
Remember...
This has NOTHING to do with healthcare, it’s about FASCIST CONTROL...
I pray that Mr. Stupak and all the clear-witted Democrats will vote no, and that this ludicrous bill will fail in huge defeat. It will be the political end of that enormous weasel Harry Reid and that brainless liberal twit, Pelosi.
Fail; EPIC FAIL!!!!!
LISTEN TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, CONGRESS!
How many times do we have to ask you to knock off the profanity? One of these days, you’ll get more than a warning if you keep it up.
This is a shrewd move by Boehner, because he knows Pelosi doesn’t have the votes - put more pressure on her.
“health bill to hit House floor”
Was house floor was designed to take that kind of dead unread weight?
Does that mean Pelosi the evil witch has the votes?
