So the NO’s stand at 211...not only is ObamaCare going down , it’s going to be a rout. If the Hill a reliable Democrat mouthpiece shows it this bad, it’s probably worse. I am sure this calculus was done after Stupak said no to Pelosi. This is all show all this talk in the media, the staffers are busy right now cobbling up a new bill, they are way ahead of us. This was planned all along, watch the right hand when the left hand is doing the dirty work.
Pelousy doesn’t have the needed votes. You can bet your rearend that the second she gets all she needs she’ll convene and call for a vote.
My RAT rep. is Alan Boyd. He’s a so-called blue dog, but the description in The Hill’s story is ambiguous. Can somebody translate? He seems to be leaning “No”.
Additionally, there are roughly another 30 who voted yes last time who also voted for the Stupak language last time. Assuming that Nazi Pelosi actually turns 7 of the 10 folks who voted no last time and who are currently undecided, she must also hold all 30 of these folks without a single defection.
I know that very great pressure will be applied against all of these folks. However, it is entirely conceivable that Nazi Pelosi will not get 216 votes.
She might not even get close.
I cant understand how the country is not outraged at their totally unconstitutional attempt to pass it without voting on it, via the “slaughter rule.”
