I think we’re all a little drunk tonight. Or if we aren’t, we will be.

I seem to have cut straight to the hangover without getting any kind of a buzz.

In addition to the result of this vote, look at the final Dem and Republican tallies, to see if any members failed to show up tonight. That will affect the number of votes required to support Obamacare.

I understand why Republicans cannot vote against Stupak, but I don’t get why some Republicans - particularly the “moderate” ones, can’t just sit out the vote entirely.

Remember, everybody. If the Stupak amendment passes, then pro-abort baby-killing vampire RATS will have to vote yes on a bill that contains garlic and holy water.

The Dems will be happy to vote for a bill including the Stupak Amendment, knowing that it will help push the process along, and then they can restore funding to kill people in the House-Senate conference.

Because the Catholic Bishops said voting present would be scored as a no vote.

Yes - 231
No - 188

The amendment will pass.

C-SPAN: National Right to Life issued a notice that they would score a “present” vote as a NO.

Various right to life groups told the GOP that they would score a “present” vote as a “no” vote.

It would be cool if the Pubbies pulled a switcheroo and killed Stupak, but it ain’t gonna happen.

So had Boehner at least whipped the Pubblies into shape- does it look as though they will all vote against the bill?
