re: #414 tradewind

I hate to clue you in… the bill has not yet been written. At least not in ink…
Actually, I’m feeling a little better. Once those lefties start frothing over the Stupak amendment, it’ll be all over. The House is one thing… the Senate is quite another. They’ll never get this one outta there in one piece. The Blue Dogs like their jobs.

The dems are being remarkably smart and practical. I think they’ll end up passing something. The leadership will do what it takes, the progressive base is grumbling a little this morning but I don’t think they’re as much of a threat to their leadership as the Tea Parties are to the Republicans. I think it’s a mistake to count on the Dems fucking up on their own.
