1. Good. I had a feeling many undecideds would decide yes after the CBO #'s came out. |

5. So we've got three "No-to-Yes" flippers now. |
|
Kunicih, Barton, and Markey.
That's good progress.

Here's comes the flood of yes votes. Once passage appears inevitable only idiots like congress critter Walt turncoat Minnick will be voting against the bill. Smarter politicians will understand that its better part of a winning majority than to be seen as a pothole in the road..

16. The pragmatic progressive in Dennis Kucinich |
|
has taken over, thankfully. We needed his voice and his vote. :hi:
I do feel badly that he's been abandoned by those who claimed to admire him so much at one time.

19. Ooh Gaw, you should have seen him on Charlie Rose last night..... |
|
looked like he was sucking on an entire box of lemonheads! :rofl:
Thank goodness there were two others on the panel making way more sense, and one puke!
He said he's biased cause he knows how it all works. I think he knew how it worked would have been a better quote coming from him.

21. "He said he's biased cause he knows how it all works." |
|
He always says that. Seriously, I've heard him say that at least a half dozen times and I generally avoid MSNBC when he's hosting. His "know it all" whiny pomposity has grown boring.

25. Stupak's full of shit. |

With the three yes's today, we're only two short, and I'm pretty sure we'll get those last two.

23. I wonder if we'll get way over 216 once the dam breaks |
|
I mean, once this thing is going to pass anyway, I wouldn't be shocked if we wind up with something like 225-230 votes or so.

They just keep coming. I like the countdown wire they've got at TPM. Every time I come back to it, it seems another no has gone to yes! http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/live/countdown-to-reform-wire/?ref=fpblg

26. I wonder if it was the phone call I had with her yesterday... |
|
She called about fundraising, and I made it clear that a "no" vote on HCR was a deal-breaker.
