“The only way to flip all three? The Senate has to pass Obama’s “fix” to Reid’s Senate bill before the House votes on anything.”

Excellent point. Voting for the full bill at first means the Senate could just IGNORE reconciliation and send it off to Obama.

Why? When both houses vote on the same bill, it’s past. It’s over.

The only reason for the talk of reconciliation is the ‘promise’ to to it.

But, if you don’t pass the “fix” first....that’s nothing but empty words.

And while the fix is better (tons better), it has a lot of problems and still is basically Obama ramming his lefty agenda through...
