Or a car accident on the way in, or an emergency room visit (gasp ! health care costs !), a GOP’ers kid gets hurt in Texas and a no vote has to run away to an emergency. Mischief, mischief, is in the air today....

I see comments from time to time that imply that 216 NO votes are needed to defeat it. My understanding has been that 216 YES votes are required to pass it, and that it isn’t a matter of how many NO votes there are. In other words, if it’s 215 to 214, it still fails. Am I right or wrong?

And the MA Treasurer was on Fox just a few minutes ago to say that adding 400,000 to their state healthcare roles has nearly bankrupted the system and 11 hospitals are suing the state for more reimbursement or they are going to have to close.
