      If Heller caves he is in serious trouble and I think he might lose his seat in 2018. Nevada has like 600k people on Medicaid right now...

        I believe Paul was quoted earlier today as saying he would vote yes to get it to committee and keep his powder dry till then.

              Thanks.

              I guess Capito is our best hope now. Paul, Portman and Heller all seem to have wussed out. McCain, who the hell knows?

                Apparently the not so subtle bribing of Murkowski in the bill wasnt enough...

                    If he saves the day then McCain will join him since he doesnt matter. If McCain matters he will do what is best for his party...then laugh as he gets top notch health care on our dime!

                              I would say even they won't do that but who knows with these clowns? Suffice that the asymmetry that exists right now with reconciliation rules greatly favors the GOP and they are loathe to give it up. If they did it that would effectively destroy 60 for legislation (since you could just always claim reconciliation no matter how big a reach, with nobody to stop you) and remove an enormous built-in advantage the GOP has enjoyed for decades. Any Republican with even an undergrad poli sci familiarity with Congress would refuse to do that, but again, who knows with these clowns?
