The most encouraging thing I've seen is the "Kill the Bill" crowds at the Capitol. The crowd is vocal, and PISSED. This WILL have an effect on the cowards. Run cowards, run!

It's worth tuning in Fox to see.

On another note, Meghan Kelly just said, "Some people say Obama has governed from the Left, although there are other people that say he has been a centrist." Sheesh, Meghan. We're not stupid, and we don't have time for crap like this.

The Hill whip count indicates GOP win.

But it assumes Stupak won't flip.

Seriously friend, there are things in that paper that the left and the right can rally TOGETHER. I am starting to rethink my defensive posture about the insurance companies. I mean the freaking bill was WRITTEN BY THEM. This just makes me know that we need to talk to the other side. They don’t like it either, but for different reasons. They are seeing evil too, and what they are saying about the “evil” they see, well they are right. I can’t begin to tell you how I’m gagging on those words.

Did you read the one comment left by by one of the blog visitors over there? She said, I can’t believe we agree with John Boehner on this. UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE

I have vodka, but, alas, no bloody mary mix and that really sounds good.

I have some old B Mary mix. Wonder how long it lasts?

Mmmmm.......My cousin and her husband are ex-bartenders. They are also my favorite relatives to visit. We let the non-drinker drive us home while we makes drunken fools out of ourselves in the car. But damn, we have fun!

RECENT UPDATES: Reps. Lincoln Davis, Brian Baird, Loretta Sanchez, Solomon Ortiz, Marcy Kaptur, David Wu, Ron Kind, Bruce Braley, Gabrielle Giffords, Kurt Schrader, Glenn Nye, Loretta Sanchez, Mike Capuano, Jim Langevin, Jerry McNerney, Jim Matheson, Zack Space, John Hall, Henry Cuellar, Shelley Berkley, Marcia Fudge, Ciro Rodriguez, Sanford Bishop, Chris Carney, Dennis Cardoza, Melissa Bean, John Tanner, Ike Skelton, Jim Costa, Bruce Braley, Paul Tonko, Mike Quigley, Mary Jo Kilroy, Baron Hill, Tim Holden, Bill Owens, Mike Ross, Bart Stupak, Marion Berry, John Barrow, Harry Teague, Michael Arcuri, Scott Murphy, Harry Mitchell, John Salazar, Tim Bishop, Bob Etheridge, Suzanne Kosmas, Brad Ellsworth, Jason Altmire, Joe Courtney, John Adler, Allen Boyd, Adam Smith, Dina Titus, Chris Murphy, Peter DeFazio, John Boccieri and Charlie Wilson

House Democrats not on this list are expected to vote yes.

All House Republicans are expected to vote no, but President Barack Obama has reportedly called Rep. Joseph Cao (R-La.) to urge him to vote yes. However, Cao, who is a proponent of the Stupak language, is still expected to reject the bill.

If every member votes and all GOP lawmakers vote no, the maximum number of Democratic defections to pass a bill is 37, which would result in a 216-215 tally.

Did he throw himself off?
