I hate to say it, but I think you're right. If they had an idea that they were going to lose the vote, Obama would WANT to get out of Dodge, and the trip would be the perfect cover for that. Change the subject of the loss, and escape all at the same time.
OTOH, Obama also went to Sweden (or wherever it was) to campaign for the Olympics. Clearly, his predictors aren't very accurate.
I think this is a negative sign for zer0. He has confided in a few insiders that he knows he’s sunk if this thing goes down in flames.
In fact, the latest push from the WH to the holdouts is that they have got to pass this to save the dear leader. They need to commit political suicide so he can survive the next 3 years.
Peeloosy doesn’t have the votes. If you saw her in her little appearance this AM she looked and sounded very edgy.
“They must be planning a huge Obamasky Care Celebration down in D.C. or not.”
