Agreed. But the key phrase is "Nancy claims". She also "claims" there is no language in the bill that provides federal funding for abortion and yet it says it right there on page 2069.
Perhaps the reason we don't know the names of these "10" is because they only exist in Nancy's brain (or lack thereof).
You’re probably right. She might claim to have 10 to put pressure on holdouts by asking them “do you want to be the one who sinks the President’s agenda”.
“According to the guy talking at the link Nancy calims to have converted 10 who voted no the first time into yes votes. I wish we knew who they were so we could apply some constituent pressure.

I agree, Nazi Pelosi has claimed a lot of things over the past year on this issue. I remember a Drudge headline from last August, one of those bright red headlines in caps that said “PELOSI: ‘I HAVE THE VOTES.’”
She also said we would have a health bill passed before the August recess, by the end of the year (2009), and now by the Easter break. I think this woman is delusional or possibly insane.
Nothing is for sure and we certainly can’t afford to let up on pressuring our congresspeople, but I don’t believe for a second that they are close to passing this thing. If they were, she’d have a vote scheduled for this weekend.
