Madam Poloosi will deny a vote on drilling until after the elections in Nov.

She'd like to, and she may succeed, but as Newt said in his interview with Hannity this afternoon, the adjournment vote was 213-212. That is an indication that cracks are appearing in Dem solidarity on the drilling issue - not to mention Madam's botox. Pelosi leaves town barely in control of her worker bees, most of whom are now in a position of having to defend their vote to avoid taking action on oil drilling until after a 5 week recess. Every person who voted to adjourn could have made a difference in the outcome by voting for continuing through to a vote. So congress starts it's 5 week vacation without taking action while many of their constituents can no longer afford to fly or drive anywhere on their vacation.

That 5 week recess also gives Pelosi 5 weeks to get her worker bees back in line in the hive.
