I guess the silver lining is that if they change the rules to pass it, we’ll only need 50 votes to repeal it in 2010.

Which -12nobama will then veto and we won't have the 3/4 majority to override the veto.

I really, really hate to admit this, but it appears that if this is passed, we are screwed.

However, we can mightily express our dissatisfaction by voting out the RATS and all the RINOS in 2010.

It takes 2/3 to override a veto -- still unreachable.

However, control of either house could make it impossible to fund the programs involved in implementing the legislation.

Any bill that appropriates money for an Obamacare activity should be DOA.
