We need to pressure the four Democrats below to vote for Repeal. There is no time to waste on this, as Harry Reid wants this over with asap. It is very likely that the vote will happen today.
Please make your calls, send faxes, and emails. Let them know that their vote is for all Americans!

This has got to be driving the left up the wall.
Just the fact that their ‘big gun” pundits haven’t had too much to say shows how discombobulated they are. They have to have round after round of conference calls with the deep thinkers of their party (the George Lakoffs and Tom Friedmans) in order to decide what to say in public. This phase will be over soon, and you can bet that the strategy they come up with will be a doozy.
But I read on another thread that they are bringing it to the floor in a manner that will require 60 votes to win - that means that up to 12 Demonrats can vote to repeal and it still won’t pass. All for show - and the show will be that Demonrats in red or near red states will be able to claim they voted for repeal.
changed til tomorrow
Any word if our not so noble Republican solons will also be voting to dump their own tax payer funded health insurance and perhaps their more than generous pensions, or maybe even stop paying the school loans of their bloated staffs with our money?

I hope that one day this turns into something tangible. I don’t want the big government GOP saying they tried, failed, and then forget about it.
This is payback. May not have much of a chance with the communists (formally the Democratic Party) most certainly not vote to repeal.
Is there a vote today or not?
I’m 100% behind repeal. BUT, even if it passes, Obama will veto it. I hate to give some Dem Senators some cover in ‘12.
Rush was saying that the Republicans shouldn’t get lazy after the Judge Vinson Ruling. He said they should go for the jugular and continue to try to repeal Obamacare. McConnell’s smart in bringing up a vote on this Unconstitutional Health Care Law. It’ll force the Dem’s to vote for retaining an Unconstitutional Law? It’s a Win Win situation for the Republicans: The Dem’s will be put on record and they will thusly incur the wrath of the voters very soon?
Congrats Mitch, you found ‘em. Keep ‘em around, you’ll need them.
Call/email/fax for Obamacare Repeal folks!

And any other representatives who might want to the RIGHT thing!
Why not deem it passed?
