I like Cavuto, Beck, Sean, Baier and Greta. I cannot stand O’Reilly.

The wrath of God clearly awaits those that align themselves with those intending to destroy both the United States and Israel.

Cantor and Boehner are actually IN the chamber, I’d trust what they say. And Cantor went through this yesterday. All 178 Republicans are NO votes (including Cao). The math comes down to how many DEM NO votes Pelosi can switch, and there have NOT been that many. That leaves the Stupak group of 6 or 7 who will probably decide this, and if they mean what they say, that’s what Boehner & Cantor are looking at. Despie all The Red Queen Pelosi’s rhetoric, she needs the Stupak group to cement this. They may get it anyway with a blizzard of last minute bribes - or they may not. But she needs the Stupak Group to know it’s a done deal.

All of the full court press by the State Run Media reciting the Dems spin is meant to dispirit opponents. FOX takes the same tact with a different view - they know THEIR audience will be nothing but even MORE fired up to intensify pressure if they keep reporting it’s all still hanging in the balance. Ailes knows what he’s doing - he’s lighting the fire under his viewership to keep hammering. It’s brilliant

the fox wash dc office is a dem party run operation.

the so called count is based on the Nov votes and they have been ignoring any switches the other way but giddy about yes votes.

a review of fox staff donations list is heavily pro dem.

The Hill has consistently had Baron Hill as a “lean yes.”

You don’t have to believe either of them. If Pelosi had the votes it would be voted on. Why put it off and risk yesses turning to nos?

I’m confused. Fox News has news? I guess Octomom losing her house and Britney Spear’s bad hair day counts as news. I get my news from the internet only.

Fox seems to be slipping towards the dark side, in an effort to be “in” with the current Administration.

Well they did let the dictator have his way with Bret Baier. I almost puked listening to that diatribe.

‘Is FOX running PsyOps on this thing?’

It seems to me that FOX is being realistic which seems to bother some.

Personally, I believe the HC bill will pass. Then the fun begins. And I am seeing posts from those that believe dems are not worried about the Nov. elections due to the possibility that 0 will create a national security issue to either declare martial law or somehow suspend the elections.

I agree!

Note that Stupak canceled his presser. No deal there.

Fox may just be pushing for a Pelosi “victory” on this bill, and even go so far as to be a backstop for resisting efforts to overturn this outcome by judicial means. The long objective is to allow the Democrats to go a bridge too far, or three, or fifteen, then have no means of retreat later on, as the election approaches.
