Poll question: Every Single D In The Senate Will Vote To Pass The HCR Bill, So, Who's A Sellout?
Edited on Sat Dec-19-09 10:41 PM by stopbush
If one of them is a sell out, then they're all sell outs.

So what are those 60 Ds in the Senate. Sell outs, or not?

Only two options available.

Vote below.

2. They want to keep their phony-baloney jobs, does that make them sellouts?
Edited on Sat Dec-19-09 11:12 PM by kenny blankenship
Not voting for the bill is an honest but politically unwise admission of their utter failure, and of the dysfunctionality of our national institutions. They don't want to face that. Does that make them "bad people"? Look, they're regular people just like you with wives and mistresses and families to feed. They can't lose their jobs in this economy, even if the depression is largely due to their own corruption and negligence. You can't ask that of them - it's stone cold!

3. Not bad people, maybe
But terrible representatives of their constituents' best interests.

And I mean their originally intended constituents, rather than their actual, corporate ones.

5. Democrats realize that the bill is critical to millions of Americans...
and it can be improved on later.

Fortunately, we don't have 60 All or nothing Senators.

And Lieberman is still a sell out, even if he votes to override the Veto.

6. I love this poll.
Some would say it's a STFU poll.

If it is, I'm fine with that.

I'm tired of the bullshit drama here.

Recommended.

7. I can't vote because of the errors in your poll.
There are 58 Dems, 1 Independent, and 1 Connecticut for Liebermanian in the Senate, not 60 Dems. And I'll say they are all sellouts after they cast their votes, not before. Sanders hasn't said he'll vote for cloture yet, for one thing.
