The Game May Be Switching Again

The Democrats may have known all along what the House repubs were planning.

They may revolt on this bill, or not even bring it to the floor. At the very least, they will try to introduce amendments. The Democrats will then blame Boehner and the current House repubs, for the collapse, and we will go over the cliff.

Which is something many Democrats will be just fine with.

I also think the markets opening are not necessarily going to be pretty.

The Democrats are not going to go for Amendment Bullshit. I'm listening to Ms Pelosi speak, and it is a vote on the 89-8 Senate Bill, or nothing at all. The time to Bullshit has run out for Boehner and his clan.
