Ok- I’ve been gone for an hour or so- it seems they have decided NOT to do Demon Pass...too many Dems against it...SO...they have to pass it the old-fashioned way...

Up til 60 mins ago they were still short several votes...lots of back and forth today with Stupak and his group- the 40 probort women will not allow any anti-funding language- then some talk about getting an “executive order” to fix it for Sutpak- but as was pointed out by Dog upthread - how can there be an executive order on a bill that hasn’t become law or voted on yet?

Whew.....

Do this mean the Senate will need 60 votes for the whole bill? Is Reconciliation dead also?

OK, I get it, the president can FIX the bill, wow. Instead of just one, fix everything you don’t like about the creation of congress, Mr. President. Just cuz you say so. You sound more like a dictator.
