Bloodbath in the House?

Date November 7, 2009

Maybe. Healthcare reform just passed. So 2010 is our year. AllahP:

It was closer than I thought: 220-215, 39 Dems voting no and a solitary Republican — Joe Cao, who replaced “Dollar Bill” Jefferson in a blue district in Louisiana — voting yes. Take heart, righties: Reid is incompetent, which makes the likelihood of 60 votes in the Senate, especially after a vote this narrow, very slim indeed.

But for now, we grieve.

Yeah; I see the political benefits to seeing it passed in the House, but stalled in the Senate. But I never wanted it to get this close; the stakes are too high.
