Harry Reid Blames the AMA. Can’t Bring Himself to Blame RedState.

We, RedState readers, have defeated Harry Reid today and delivered a significant blow to the potential passage of Obamacare.

Harry Reid just ran to the Senate floor and cried that he cannot get enough votes to pass the doctors’ bribe to support Obamacare. He blamed the AMA for misleading him.

He might actually want to look to RedState. Our readers have generated hundreds and hundreds of phone calls in 24 hours to pretty much every Republican Senator. Several who had considered voting for cloture backed down.

And now the end run around Obamacare costs has been defeated.

This makes it much more difficult for Obamacare to pass and virtually impossible for it to pass without significant deficit blowing cost additions.

Well done activists!

U.S. Senate: Legislation & Records Home > Votes > Roll Call Vote

http://senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=111&session=1&vote=00325

Here are the Dems voting nay:

Bayh, Byrd, Conrad, Dorgan, Feingold, Kohl, Lieberman, McCaskill, Nelson of FL, Tester, Warner, Webb, Wyden

OK.

There’s some oddities in who voted yea and nay.

This list of nays did not include several so-called Bluedogs that we know, for instance, have resisted the public option or other aspects of this reform, and I wonder why.

Lincoln, Nelson of NE and Landrieu voted yea. These are votes we have hoped to get against this whole thing. Dick Morris has specifically mentioned them as possibly gettable. Yet, they were ok with this trick

OTOH, We got Feingold, McCaskill and Nelson of FL, who are libs and are for big government healthcare. Other odd nays were Warner, Webb and Wyden.

There may be some obscure games being played here. Who knows what is going on. Am I glad this failed? Absolutely.

But it’s hard to have predicted some of these votes, based on the landscape as it might have appeared...
