i am thinking the GOP put everything they had into this and realize they maxed out at one vote short.
(We won’t know the exact case until it happens.)
That could have been why, last night, they looked and sounded almost resigned while still clinging to hope.
But Darrell Issa predicted outright our defeat, when asked point blank if he believed it will pass.
The others I saw were doing a special order on the House Floor and didn’t want to say that there. However, I could tell how they felt by all of the sad vibes they were emitting...
U.S. Rep. Michael Arcuri (NY-24) was a yes, that switched to NO.
Fox News reported that Obama tried everything to get him to vote yes, but he held strong and now the unions have told him to forget all campaign funding. He’s still a solid NO vote.
His reasons are the costs. He doesn’t believe the touted savings or the CBO numbers. He’s right.
Call me Pollyanna but we can still hope for maybe one or two “YES, Ms. Nancy” votes to suddenly turn to NO’s during the live count. You know just to shut her up and not face her wrath, they have gone along with the whole Rat scheme.
We might have maxed out at 215. but there’s still time. One of those people have to realize that their about to overthrow our Republic. We need one patriot.
