Does John B know what he is talking about, or is this wishful thinking. For some reason he doesn’t seem too concerned.

He’s been in the Yes column for the entire week.

At this point it’s all head games between the two sides.

Fox is acting like he was a huge get for the Democrats..

And called him a swing vote.

FOX seems to be trying to help Pelosi gain momentum. Shame on FOX. I turned them off!

Fox seems to be slipping towards the dark side, in an effort to be “in” with the current Administration.

I may tick someone off ... but,

I have tried to be a Cavuto fan, but I don’t think he gets it about the Tea party, the constitutional impact of the health bill, etc. I know he’s sharp, but I’m just not a huge fan.

It’s getting hard to listen to Fox, especially Cavuto. He never lets anyone finish a sentence.

Fox has been awful when it comes to this Whip Count.

The absolute worst.

Your honestly better off going to leftist sites like Firedoglake for the Whip Count than pay attention to what Fox says.

It is pretty clear Pelosi hasn’t assembled her 216 yet (though I feel certain she will), yet Fox has been saying she has the votes since 5PM on Friday. What are they doing? Trying to help her push the “we have the momentum” meme?

Fox has just not been very impressive lately.

Mr. Boehner has to say that- as long as there is a chance of defeating this.

It helps beat back the air of inevitability and actually helps defeat the measure by keeping his folks motivated.

I’ve noticed over time the clear difference between the FOX News Channel’s news coverage and foxnews.com’s coverage, their online news reports consist of many Reuter’s and AP articles, it’s much more liberal, that’s why I rarely if ever go there.

Even our local FOX affiliate’s reporting on this has been sickening. We turned them off as well, as soon as the local weather report is done.

Shame on FOX. I turned them off!

I did, too! Is there a comments section on their web-site or anywhere to register our feelings? I'm *trying* to watch the rules committee on C-Span 2. That witch Slaughter is talking, and talking..... my blood pressure may not allow me to keep watching this either!

Baron Hill was a yes and is still a yes. NO net loss. Currently The Hill has been keeping a running tally.

http://thehill.com/homenews/house/85693-whip-watch-the-hills-survey-of-house-dems-positions-on-healthcare-

They show 11 Yes’s now no or at least leaning no. They show 7 NO’s now yes or leaning yes. If they undecideds stay with their previous votes, the measure loses by a couple. The Hill shows 33 undecided, but actually 32 with Baron Hill news. Keep the faith, keep up the calls, keep up the pressure! I hope the turnout today at the Capitol is huge.
