I'm genuinely curious to see if there is a historical role reversal for our current situation. Could be useful in a conversation.

1. Bush's 2 round of tax cuts

I think they got 50 plus Cheney -- they got Ben Nelson (Corporate-NE) to vote for it

2. The medicare prescription thing -- Hasstert held voting open for four hours

(I think that was the vote... he held votoing open for four hours for something when they realized they didn't quite have it)

3. Probably the Medicare Perscription Drug bill

when they they held the vote open for 3 hours while he twisted arms to get the votes quite late at night. Normally votes in the House are open for only 15 minutes.
