For now it is over. Next battle is for 2010.

I agree with your sentiment and passion! But I think there are a few more steps still to take and some body punches to make on these people. It’s not a waste as long as we keep this in front of the American people and a great majority oppose it - to wit by 16 points in the recent Quinnipiac poll (no conservative poll that):

1. If it passes the Senate, then the separate House and Senate bills go to a joint conference committee where the two differing bills are merged into one bill. So our next targets are those committee members. The committee can cause it to die if they wish.
2. If it comes out of committee, then it goes back to the Senate and House for a final vote. At that point if we stop it in either House or Senate the thing is dead!
3. If however the bill is passed by both Senate and House it goes to Obama for his signature and it becomes law (the chances are absolute he will sign it)
4. Then we have the Court system to tie it up and I think there is a good chance the Supreme Court will strike it down. We must be prepared to support the most credible groups waging the legal battle. We can probably tie it up until the 2010 elections.
5. Then we have the 2010 and 2012 elections to elect enough new congressmen and a new president to overturn the legislation.
6. An uncooperative Congress will slow down and fowl up Obama’s schemes.
7. A freedom loving Congress might actually impeach Obama.
It is done. Lets hang it and Obama around their necks and beat the crap out of em to take the house in 10.

By the way, if we keep this in front of people, get out the real message, and present sensible alternatives, the victories in 2010 and 2012 will be complete and devestating for the RAT communists.
Steps 4 through 7 maybe the last best hope of sanity in this nation.
