Poll question: We gonna get HCR?
Or is this all another grand illusion. I hate getting my hopes up after what happened last time.

2. Yes ..... we gonna get it.
At this point if we WEREN'T going to, the President would have moved on to something else and would have been waving the jobs bill around like a victory banner.

For him to CONTINUE to push ... now in an even GRANDER fashion ... for a HCR bill IF it was doomed to failure would assume that he's an idiot politically.

Clearly, he's not.

We are closer than we have ever been.

7. Yep....
.... and I DARE any of you all to be worried about whether we will get a bill 48 hours from now (trust me, you WONT be.)

Be sure to leave your social calendars open that day to allow time for "dancing in the streets." ;)

8. Yep and what he's talking about should reassure us....
... if we (the American People) can pass a civil rights bill, a voting bill, end segregation and KILL Jim Crow ...... we can pass a health care bill.

That is NOTHING compared to the struggle that came before. The GOP has been filibustering the President's plan for not even a year .... the Dixie-crats filibustered desegregation for DECADES.
