C-Span saying House will vote later tonight on Boehner's plan

[Kaleva]

Was sort of watching the debate going on and saw the ticker saying the vote will take place later tonight.

1. Isn't the debate over? Didn't they stop it earlier? It says "Today"

on the screen, not "Live" -- this is from earlier today before Boehner bailed.

2. The House is in recess and the debate shown is from earlier today but

I'm watching the alerts and news ticker at the bottom of the screen.

Edit: One alert said the vote has been delayed but another news alert said a spokesman for Boehner's office stated that the vote will take place later tonight.

Maybe I'm reading old news. It's been awhile since I've watched C-Span.

3. That's what they're saying from Capitol Hill now, too -- there

WILL be a vote. Think Boehner will be sober by the time that rolls around?

4. Good! I was feeling really stupid for possibly jumping the gun & reporting old news!

6. Nope, that part of C-Span was Live! :-) nt

5. They reported it on MSNBC, too, but that doesn't mean they have the votes. It means

they're HOPING they'll have the votes, I'm pretty sure, since Russert just reported that Repubs. are still saying no, but they're still trying.

7. At 3:00 in the morning as they did with Glass-Steagall and Medicare Plan Part D.

They are treasonous. They hate this country and everyone but the rich, in it!!!

8. If it's at 3 a.m., my wife is going to be mighty pissed if I stay up to watch it.
