First, let's presume that Lieberman, Nelson, Webb, Lincoln, and Bayh stay off their meds and continue to vote for ReidCare in the two upcoming required cloture votes. The result would be two different health-care bills - one from the House, and one from the Senate. The normal procedure afterward would be appoint conferees for a joint Conference Committee. The Committee would unify the bills, which would return to each chamber for a final vote.

1) Call every Dem Congressman and demand the key point in the House Bill that are completely unacceptable to the Senate.
2) Call each Dem Senator and demand they keep the key points in the Senate Bill that are completely unacceptable to the House.
Set the Senate against the House.
Anyhow, it’s an option.
