Glenn Nye, Loretta Sanchez to Vote “No” — 209 By: Jane Hamsher Saturday March 20, 2010 8:14 pm ... This makes Nancy Pelosi’s job considerably harder. Sanchez’s jump could be a sign that there are members who have been quiet about their positions and hoping they’d never have to take the vote. But with the fear of tough elections ahead looming large, more could follow her lead.

She gets to tell the left that it wasn’t single-payer, and the right that she voted against it. Still, I’m very surprised.
I’ve met the Congresswoman on more than one occasion. If Obama tries to work her over, he will quickly find out that she has 10x his intelligence and ability to debate.
She’ll work him over.
Woo hoo, and she’s a socialist true believer. That tells me they ARE starting to feel the cold breath of political death on the backs of their necks.
She probably doesn’t want to be found by Obama.
More like, people are figuring out that he never had any.
I was hoping Kansas would get to play Sycause.
Get that ‘simple yes or no’ vote out of the way. Kill this beast.
Dornan made his name in the heavily Catholic district by stigmatizing Democrats as favoring abortion.
Sanchez-Brixey's district is surrounded by very conservative Republican Orange County.
yitbos
This could also mean that they don’t need her vote, so she’s off the hook and will vote No.
Exactly
From RollCall, 9:32 PM: “...leaders now list the Orange County Democrat as a “no” vote.”

Thanks for correcting my memory on this. I knew it was R seat at one time.
Loretta Smith, I know she changed to her name back to her maiden name when she ran against B1 Bob Dornan to get the hispanic vote. I’m from Long Beach, I can’t believe this woman would even look outside the line of the socialist party line. This is BS. She’ll vote YES
As of half an hour ago (11:14 PM EDST), Firedoglake says the “Yeas” are 205, the “Nays” are 209, with “Leaning Nay” at 10 and “Leaning Yea” at 0.
And she does not say no very often the tramp
I guess we want her to come back then.
During the vote, Washington Rep. Jay Inslee, one of the taller members of the House, guarded the doors on the floor leading out to the Speaker’s Lobby, warning members not to leave the floor in case anyone needed to switch his or her vote. But that didn’t stop some Democrats, like Colorado Rep. John Salazar, from voting no early and sneaking out to avoid getting pressured by party leaders.
Leadership aides say Texas Rep. Ciro Rodriguez promised Pelosi he’d vote yes, but voted no and sprinted from the chamber. California Rep. Xavier Becerra tried unsuccessfully to flag him on his cell phone — and Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) bounded into the ornate Speaker’s Lobby off the floor shouting, “Rodriguez! Rodriguez!” as puzzled reporters looked on.
LMAO!!
Isnt her cousin or sister a congresswoman too?
I thought is dog was named BO
