I guess this about seals it. Morris says the Dems are short of votes - that just about makes it a slam dunk that the bill will pass.
(of course, even LeBron misses a slam dunk once in a while)
Awesome! Morris has never been wrong! Uh, wait...
Then let the games REALLY begin.
Better Dick Morris before he, um, ...
Yeah, Morris hasn’t been exactly stellar on his predictions. But Michael Barone wrote a good piece on the dem chances. He thinks there is a reasonable chance it won’t pass.
No offense to you personally, but if Dick Morris told me it was going to be sunny all day, I’d bring my umbrella with me just to make sure.
Morris is an idiot.
This bill is going to pass. If it wasn’t 3 seconds before Morris wrote this, they can bank on it now because Morris made the call.
Ha Ha. That’s the first thing I thought too. Morris is always wrong.
His track record historically has been awful, but he has has some pretty good insight during this process. We’ll see....
I don’t buy it. Why would they let it be defeated if this would mean “the end” of Obama’s presidency and Pelosi’s speakership? Nah, if they don’t have the votes this thing is going get punted downfield again.
Pelosi is Thelma, Reid, Louise.
Of course we shouldn’t put our faith in Dick Morris.
But it is very, very, very, very late in the game for this still to be in doubt. Pelosi’s only hope of keeping her fragile coalition together is to create an aura of inevitability. To get wavering Dems to vote yes, it must appear to be a lock.
Otherwise, ten then twenty or even more Dems defect, and the thing loses by a significant margin.
If Pelosi can’t name the 216 votes today, she’s done. And it will end up falling more than a handful of votes short.
Let’s see if the dems really have a vote on Sunday if they do not have the votes. My guess is that if this does not pass, then some dems will be sawed off at the knee caps. Then another vote will occur with some “tweaks” to the legislation.
I wouldn’t trust Dick Morris as far as I can throw him.
My feeling is, the Dems will use their slush fund left over from stimulus to buy whatever they need. Since the terms Congressman, Congresswoman, and Senator are now easily interchangable with the word whore, buying votes isn’t that hard to do.
Where and at what point did these people forgo their responsibility to the American voters? When did they abandon accountability for personal aggrandizement?
More to the point, when did Americans decide that they could stand by allowing this and still call themselves ‘independent’?
Every dollar that is expended on an illegal alien (and these vermin ARE covered under ObamaCare) represents one less dollar available for an AMERICAN in need:
a hungry child,
a disabled person,
a senior citizen,
-or- a veteran who risked their life for our country
Our politicians are an embarassment. Why bother being a working, tax paying, law abiding citizen? What’s the benefit?
Until American citizens STOP giving elected officials permission to STEAL from them (voting for the Democrat Party), nothing will change.
I thought I was the only one that was less than enthralled with the Toe Suckers’ perspicacity. Freepers are smart.
