Maybe the Rats are just fixing the statistics.
They know how many votes they need, how many and which seats will be up for election, and who is most vulnerable.
Maybe they are just trying to figure out how small they can make their kamikaze squad and still get the bill passed while impacting their hold on Congress the least.
I think that is why Lincoln Davis of South Tennessee was allowed to vote “no” on the first Health Care vote — now they need his vote, and they are calling in his marker.
I submit that there's no "maybe" about it. This is exactly what they are doing.
