At this moment, Democratic sources say their internal head counts have them breaking through the 218 mark this afternoon. Whether that will mean that more Democrats will come on board, or that Pelosi is going to cut other members lose, is still unclear. But Dems are confident they have won.

Government terrorism!
It ain’t over until it’s over. Now is too soon.+
These traitors have no idea what they’re starting.
Napolitano asks: “Where in the Constitution is the federal government charged with maintaining people’s health?”
Clyburn’s answer: “There’s nothing in the Constitution that says the federal government has anything to do with most of the stuff we do.”
Maybe the courts.... and if not them.... America will need to do some serious housecleaning in Washington.
True, however Pelosi is speaking with an air of confidence that it will in the the house chambers presently.
This bill is still going to conference and must pass another floor vote after conference committee. Even if it gets past this vote, there’s no guarantee that it will get past the final floor vote, especially if pressure is maintained on the so-called Blue Dogs.
I just heard Pelosi say that they not only have the support of AMA, AARP, Conumer’s Union, the National Cancer Society, maybe something about the Heart Association - she said over 300 groups support the legislation.
We know that the AMA is having a revolt among doctors, and that AARP has been bought off, I wish I knew about the rest.
Isn't it wonderful we've got all those Rats mouthing off how they have saved America's Health Care system and given us all a new lease on life?
From their lips to our ears and forever recorded in the wall of shame.

Debbie Halvorsen, you’re fired!
They wouldn’t hold the vote if they didn’t KNOW they had 218 or more.... It won’t be quite so easy in the Senate.
Let it happen... for now. We warned those lapdogs about 2010, and if this comes to pass they’re going down hard. If they are laying their careers and reputations at the altar of this monstrosity, then so be it.
Come November 2010, they’re gone.
Exactly! The house dems may be walking the plank for Pelosi only to have the Senate screw them by not being able to pass anything. If that happens it is the worst of both worlds for the Blue Dogs. They have a vote on record for this monstrosity and then will have no bill passed.
This could actually work out well for the Republicans.
“The Rats will be accountable as a whole and not just their individual vote. “

YEP! The fake ass blue dogs voting “no” just to look good will still get thrown out because people will punish the dems as a whole.
Eff Em.
She will be all over the State-Run-Media, bragging about her prowess in getting it passed, first time in History, blah, blah, blah.....
We are in really bad shape as a country right now, folks....
This bill will linger like the Cap and Tax bill has. The Senate will not pass a bill this liberal and if it’s watered down, Pelosi loses House votes.
This is a symbolic vote meant to appease the base so Obama can get away with sending troops to Afghan.
At least that's what I've heard.
