Was she one of the holdouts, or was she already a YES?

She was a hold out, and a mangy blue dog democrat. Yesterday there was a protest at noon, tons of people drove by her office honking their horns. A real disruption to the neighborhood.

She has been quoted as saying she was not going to be intimidated by the “right wing.”

I knew she would vote yes, as she did when the bill was first up. She would say during her townhall meetings, she was considering both sides of the healthcare bill, then proceed to list all the reason it made sense to her.

High Hewitt has mentioned her a couple times as being on the fence. I don't think she ever was. The Tea Party movement is very strong here in the Old Pueblo, and she is a complete sellout.

Oh, and yes, she voted yes the first time as she did for cap and trade, but she was very coy about it, and kept us hanging.

At first I thought she was a useful idiot, the few times that I’ve seen her speak, she is not impressive. But now I think she is just plain slimey and a closet progressive.
