A pundit hit this whole exercise on the head. If you noticed, the Dems kept assuring the public that both sides were almost in agreement except for a few minor differences. This way when they pass it through reconciliation they can say the GOP was in favor of the majority of the bill except for one or two minor points that both sides couldn't agree on. They have their cover with voters who really didn't understand what they heard today. Shame on the GOP for not correcting this repetitive lie.

To: LaybackLenny
I don’t know where you are quoting that from, but it doesn’t sound remotely like reality.
The Democrats refused to do a conference. It wasn’t McConnell blocking it (he can’t block it). They didn’t want a conference because a conference bill would ALSO have to get 60 votes in the senate, and they knew any changes made in conference would therefore destroy the bill.
So they knew their only hope was to pass the Senate bill as-is. But they can’t do that, so they are working on a “reconciliation” bill to fix the senate bill, which they could pass in the senate with 51 votes.
Basically, they know they can’t send the senate bill back to the senate to be fixed, it would take 60 votes, so they are going to “send it back” as a separate bill and use 50 votes.
Except they don’t have the votes for that either, nor can they work out the logistics.
To: ctdonath2
Thanks for clarifying.
Dems may have won in Nov 08 but they lost the debate today.
Thanks for clarifying this — Cong Mike Pence was just on MSNBC discussing the Summit and did very well from the clip I just saw. We need Republicans all over the place.

From Wiki:Henry Arnold Waxman (born September 12, 1939) is an American politician. He has represented Californias 30th congressional district (map) in the U.S. House of . . Waxman is most well known for the annual Democratic retreat at Speaker Pelosi's vineyard where he entertains his party by rooting for truffles. In recent years, Waxman ate so many truffles as he dug them up, the party has had to put a muzzle on his head.

Right. And a set needs to be put aside for Barney Frank!
Barney needs a set so he can articulate his words!

Reid may have 52 or 53 votes, but Pelosi has no where near the 217 she will need.
First, Scott Brown, then today's debacle. She'll be lucky to have 200 votes.

To: LaybackLenny
McConnell cites polls supporting public opposition to current bill and, as a remedy, proposes and transparency in creating a new one to make constituents/public more comfortable and informed about the HC reform.
Obama counters by saying everyone wants all the individual items in the bill...what is not mentioned is if those everyones are willing to pay for those things as per the current proposal.
