Will a Democrat or two help Boehners bill pass?
There's around 5 Dems who will support just about anything the republicans propose. I hope they're not the ones to put it over the top.

1. MSNBC saying now they're not sure they even have the Republican
vote so far, but Cantor is confident by vote time they'll all be on board.

If this doesn't pass the House, if even the Republicans don't back it -- woo hoo!

3. That's good news.
I thought this one was too good for Schuler to resist.

4. They won't be needed. The GOP is in lockstep. The only reason for that bill is to corner the
Democrats into voting against it when the senate gets it. Then they can say that the Democrats did not save the country from default and the GOP was trying to save it from default.

6. They voted for CCB because they knew it was dead in the Senate anyways.
This is being whipped.

2 defections, total. Boren isn't running again, I expect him to cross over. One other.
