The votes must be coming from elsewhere.
my first thought..........
“The votes must be coming from elsewhere.”
Yup, he might be figuring that the bill will pass without him. The Dems do this, figuring out who votes yes and no in case some Dem needs “cover” for an upcoming election.
It Graham wont vote for it then I can only assume he is trying to avoid a serious primary challenger.
That said, even if the senate comes up with 50 I am sorely confused about this bill.
There are actually some good things in it that we don’t have now.
But there are a few serious flaws in it that could and would lead to serious abuse. It should be defeated at all cost.
I tend to think that if Boehner imposes the Hastert rule this bill won’t get a vote in the House. We shall see.
