6. Looks like

the rats are deserting the sinking ship J_D...I wonder if any republicans have the guts to do what's right...............................HA HA HA HA HA

9. I just e-mailed my Rep and asked him to show some courage

and represent his district :-). This district is rural and poor.

[SoFlaJet]

10. I live in Wexler's district

I've never had to worry about his votes on anything-now Bill Nelson is another story-with him I don't even bother anymore

[livetohike]

11. My Rep is a freshman Congressman - he votes no on everything

He has a 92% record in voting with his GOP party. I wish I had a Democrat congressperson. When I lived in CA, Darrell Issa was my rep :puke:.

[SoFlaJet]

14. Only 92%?

So that means he's voted with dems 8% of the time wow-call the Tea Bag Party and get him primaried

[livetohike]

16. Make it 6%, because he abstains 2% of the time

:rofl:

[SoFlaJet]

17. Hey what the hell They can lie about everything

we can lie about a little 2%-just say he WOULD have voted w/ the dems but he chickened out

[Supersedeas]

21. name names....they will hear you

[Beaverhausen]

7. Does anyone know the count now? How close are we to the magic number?

what is the magic number?

[harun]

13. They already have the votes. House leadership had simply promised a 72 hour

window before the vote after the final text came out. So that is why we have to wait until Sunday.

[grantcart]

15. the 72 hour window is one of the changes made to open up the system

[harun]

22. So they do it for everything now?

[Claire Beth]

23. The law reads the bill being voted on has be posted

72 hours before the vote.

20. Here is a pretty accurate list:

http://thehill.com/homenews/house/85693-whip-watch-the-hills-survey-of-house-dems-positions-on-healthcare-

36 leaning nos or firm nos. I think we can only allow 37 to vote no. It will be tight.

19. Think he is retiring...

That is probably the only reason we get his vote this time around.
