My post duplicated a lot of what you said; I didn’t read yours before commenting.
I just want to add, that, in the House vote, Nancy Pelosi was able to pick and choose which Democrats were allowed to vote “no” to give them political cover as they run for re-election. Since they have a big majority in the House, with no filibuster type rules, she could afford to lose a number of Democrats and still pass the bill. But in the Senate, the Republicans can force ALL Democrats to stand up and vote for this thing in roll call votes.
That’s right. A very good point. Let’s hope some of these Dems in conservative states will really get the heat while home for Thanksgiving. That could make a difference when they come back after the holiday - Landrieu, Lincoln, Nelson, Bayh, McCaskill
