5. They can only postpone it about 11 hours
Do they really want people finding out HCR passed at 7:00 PM Christmas Eve?

6. The R's are the ones that wanted it voted on earlier than
7PM. They need to get home for Christmas. The D's were willing to stay till Christmas Eve to get it done.

2. Any chance Sanders will go renegade and vote against this?
I know Feingold is holding his nose over the vote...

7. I don't think so. He's not thrilled with it, but the last few times I
heard him he said he was going to try to make it better, but even when asked directly, he wouldn't say he'd vote agaist it.

8. That vote will be easy -- only a simple majority needed.. However,
there is still another 60 vote cloture vote tomorrow that requires all hands on deck again.

11. My friends asked me if I was dedicated enough to stay up until 1am watching CSPAN....
.... the REAL test of my dedication to all of this insanity is if I'll get UP at 7:45am lol!

(and of course I will)
