They can try, but this will never make it out of the chamber. The procedure to pass a bill this way is SO complicated and messy. Because it goes the way of a budget bill the Pubs can literally require this baby to be passed line by line. They have signaled they will do just that. They public will freak out and dems will be jumping ship before anything can be accomplished. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Read elsewhere that Senators can require amendments to be read...and Bob Dole set the precedent of attaching an amendment that included the entire U.S. Code. Of course, with Harry Reid presiding over the Senate, the rules on reading amendments will probably be trashed too. Time for the tar and feathers.
