I was in the car listening to POTUS on my beloved satellite radio when I heard about the CBO numbers coming in, else I would have jumped up and down :-)

6. I am streaming CSPAN1 now |
|
and the schedule upadte banner says Pelosi startting soon on CSPAN but at the same time right now there are Rs spewing nonsense (Virginia FOx just finished), and I don't think they can cut off from covering the House floor no matter what, can they? I am confused too. I am sure that CSPAN radio will cover, but I want to watch not only hear.

.... each of those people will be talked about on their local news because they were at this major briefing. This will help get the message about in the crucial swing districts causing voters to (hopefully) put pressure on their Reps. to vote yes.

53. Small? Hardware store small, or 500 employees small? |

I always wonder about that.
Same as "middle income", a term that to Republicans is like between $250,000 and $450,000/year.

36. doesn't matter, what we need is for the local news to cover it... |

... the President's campaign made a point of trying to attracts LOCAL news instead of national news during the campaign.
And you probably know how that worked out. ;)

These stories are preaching to the choir and not necessary....yes touching i've heard about 20 this week on tv but i'd prefer they outline their bill proposal and get back on the floor to get it done.

This is a powerful message they are sending -- Quietly addressing ALL the things HCR will help -- and basically telling the Repubs that all there lies and fear mongering is based upon non truths.
