Howard Finemann reported on Olbermann that Dennis Kucinich will vote YES
According to Finemann, Kucinich received personal assurances from Obama that this bill is only the first step, and that the Administration will support legislation to improve it.

7. Well, we can't pressure the Blue Dogs....
Those votes will be needed next year to cut Social Security so they can't risk public wrath by voting for the bill.

3. I'm pretty sure that's not all Kucinich received
I doubt he is that gullible

5. I don't believe that Finemann has a direct link to Rep. Kucinich.
So I don't think he really knows.

6. I guess we will just have to wait to hear what he does and what his reasons are
for doing it. One hope I have is that POTUS told him that there is a Public Option in the bill after all.

8. I am pretty sure that if this is true, Dennis got something he wanted...
like a decent public option...not the crap that passed the House earlier.
