Whip Count Shocker! “No” Vote Shifts/Politicians Lie
IBD's Capital Hill ^ | 3/21/20100 | Ed Carson

Posted on 03/21/2010 9:47:27 AM PDT by Slyscribe

Calif. Rep. Loretta Sanchez will show up to vote, her office says. While she’s given indications that she’d vote no, she was a very late “yes” last November. Meanwhile, Virginia Rep. Rick Boucher, who had been a solid no until a few days ago, now says he’s “undecided.” There are 206 yes votes, 207 no votes along with perhaps 9 Stupak Democrats and 9 undecided Dems, Firedoglake now says.

Meanwhile, a noon Stupak press conference was canceled.

This is NOT in the bag for Obama.....keep calling and putting the pressure on. Let’s not have to repeal this thing....let’s kill the bill.

Who really thinks that Sanchez is going to vote no? I have a bridge for sale for anyone who buys that.

Where was the shift? I'm not seeing it. FDL still has the same #'s and Sanchez is a wh0re who will vote with the RATS?

Stupaks conf. is cancelled which means that Pel0ser is carving out his wishes still.

My prediction: We're going to get this unmercifully rammed down our throats today.

Stupak (et al.) will cave under the bogus EO promised by Obama.

We're screwed folks, this is as good as done.

Remember those that vote yes, we must purge them from any government job for their entire life. We should remember that these yes voters are communists.

These filthy Dims are going to pay big time in November, regardless of how this vote comes out. They are power-mad slime that do NOT CARE ABOUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, THEIR WILL OR THEIR FREEDOMS and they will pay.

The American public knows WHO AND WHAT they are. The November vote will reflect that. They are starting a war they cannot finish.

I am trying to get thru to Sanchez’s office.

I live nearby. She is truly a wild-card on this one. The bill doesn’t do as much for illegals as she would like, and they are her base.

And any Dem who votes no should switch over to the GOP if they want to save their jobs. Otherwise we clean out ALL Dems like getting rid of cockroaches. They ALL have to go in November.

One big charade.

The fight, imo, is over who GETS to vote NO. Not who WILL vote NO.

My hope is that the "undecideds" are hoping to hold out until it's apparent that the bill is going to pass, so they can then vote no.

But what if there aren't enough "yes" votes when their turn to vote comes? Will they vote "yes"?

God help us!
