"Reid will not strip the defunding language until after he has passed the 60-vote cloture hurdle. The key move is to make sure an amendment to change the language is pending before the final vote to end debate. "

So anyone who doesn't prevent that is a supporter of Obamacare.

EVERYTHING else is Kabuki.

“...... Reid’s first move would be to schedule a vote to end debate on proceeding to the House continuing resolution. This would require 60 votes. Republican senators would vote to proceed to the bill because it would including the language to defund ObamaCare.

Then he would fill the amendment tree, defining what amendments could be considered in relation to the House legislation.

Reid would be sure that one of the pending amendments is a so-called “amendment to strike,” which would allow him schedule a future vote on stripping the language defunding ObamaCare and prioritizing debt payments.....”

The GOP needs to get out there and MAKE SURE this sight of hand by Reid hits all the “airways.” This is what the Left does. They stack the deck. We have Obamacare because they stacked the deck. Now they want to have a rerun.
