Democratic health care count: 20 will vote no, 19 unknown, 20 undecided
If you're keeping score of the likely House of Representatives vote on health care Saturday, Congressional Quarterly has found at least 20 Democratic no votes.
But in its effort to survey 70 party moderates, it also found 20 undecided and 19 whose views were unknown. Eleven were yes votes or leaning that way.
The findings illustrate why the vote, expected late Saturday, remains suspenseful. It takes 218 votes to pass legislation, and the House has 258 Democrats.
Here's the list: http://www.cq.com/document/display.do?docid=3243366
Maybe it's not that they are democrats in disguise....maybe they are doing the right thing. How about passing the right bill instead of just passing any bill. Last time I checked, everyone is not entitled to free handouts at the expense of the county's future. How about working for it...or is that too novel an idea?

These people need to be ID and voted out of office for being turncoats.

WHY will they vote no?
Somebody needs to find out if they have valid objections, or if they're being forced out of the closet and into the light of day: "Oh look, they're Republicans in camo!"
lolll...you know, we can legally shoot spies and saboteurs...
How come we can't shoot people who claim to be of one Party to get elected, but are actually of the other Party?
