Something to ponder..as they get closer to the vote, EVERYONE will start to declare themselves..and if it’s one vote short, by a hard count..then a lot of Dems..the Blue Dogs especially, will say WHY shoudl I vote for it in a losing cause, and piss off the people back home..when the bill loses..it’s lose by 40-50 votes..if not more

Good analysis/prognosis.

Hope you’re right.

As long as the vote isn’t brought to the floor they don’t have the votes to pass it.

The Senate has to pass Obama’s “fix” to Reid’s Senate bill before the House votes on anything.

We will never know. If Pelosi can't pass it she will not call for a vote.
