Rep. Anh Cao (R., La.) tells National Review Online that he “hopes to reconsider” his vote on the health-care bill this weekend, should House Speaker Nancy Pelosi guarantee, “with certainty,” that she can fix its abortion language in a separate, later legislative measure.

He says he will consult with “legislative experts” tonight and tomorrow to determine whether any Pelosi-abortion deal is valid.

I dunno. If you can’t trust the speaker, who can you trust?

[Sybeck1]

Wish he would just switch parties.

“who ‘ya gonna trust, Me or your lyin’ eyes??”

[4buttons]

F ‘im.

[jazminerose]

WTF?!!!!!!!!!!!

[GOPsterinMA]

Cao’s done in November, and he knows.

Looking for a $$$ golden parachute to vote for ObamaCare - and then they can say it passed via “bipartisanship”.

Go back to Vietnam you communist as*hole!

I surrender. When did Pelosi get a vote in the Senate?

Whole new definition in play to Louisiana purchase????

He probably got promised head tour guide at the Hanoi Hilton!

Cantor insists that Cao is a NO. Last spoke with him 4pm EST

[AmishDude]

I do not understand why he is doing this.

He’s toast in November regardless. But if he plays the good Republican, he can get a nice gerrymandered seat in 2012.

They don’t know by now, YOU CAN’T TRUST THESE TRAITORS?!!!!!

I look forward knowing these sellouts will have a hard time sleeping or
even being around normal people after they find out just how much Pelosie would stick to any commitment.

[GOPsterinMA]

He knows he’s finished in November - he wants a bribe on his was out the door, plain and simple.

POS Vietcong!!!

You really don't know Cao's family history, do you?

Cao's father fought with the United States in Vietnam and was imprisoned by the Communists.

Obamacare is one thing, but don't smear a man and his father by calling them Vietcong.

[Pollster1]

Do not worry. Hitler has personally guaranteed that you will be safe at your destination . . . and that's as good as having Nancy Pelosi's word.

[glorgau]

The famous “player to be named later”.

[outofstyle]

Many heroes have had spineless cowards for sons. Cao is a coward if he caves on this. I would say it to his face and to yours if I had the opportunity.

[Carley]

Cao is hoping for a nice payoff.
