You know that Bart and his gang of fools will push for his abortion language again and fuck the whole thing up.


I hope so and think it probably will but there are plenty who would vote no.

1. Hell no.
In that scenario the House is more iffy even than the Senate.

2. You're jumping ahead of the game
We still don't even know for sure if the House will pass the Senate bill without one iota of guarantee that the Senate will 'fix' this.

3. Hard to say
It's unknown if the votes are there in the House. It's always been assumed that the Senate was the sticking point, but that was because they needed 60 votes. Not anymore.

I realize that the House already passed the public option, but it's unclear if the votes are still there for it.
