As of now 29 have not decided how they will vote
6 more no votes kill the bill
8 of the remaining 29 voted no last time.

Don't know what your opinions are, just thought I'd throw this out there.

One of the old no votes, Harry Teague of New Mexico, says he is voting no again.

By the CNN count, which still has him undecided, that leaved 5 to stop the bill.
That leaves 5 more to kill it according to these sites.

This bill, if it passes, will set-up a system akin to compelling you to wipe the butt of the guy down the street who is too much of a loser to buy his own toilet paper. srsly.

Will they wipe my butt if I don't feel like it?

I hope the whole god damned thing blows up in their stupid faces.

JM, I don't think it's going to pass. I keep looking up these first time no voters that are still undecided, and they seem to want an up and down vote, are very moderate, or just seem like they are not wanting the increase in costs/debt.

Interesting. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see it killed.

failure...go back to the drawing boards and write up a bill that makes sense and that everybody voting on it will have read

Another no vote. CNN shows 33 total Dem "nos" without including the Teague no. That would leave only 4 more to kill it.

Just found another "NO" from Richard Boucher out of Virginia.

CNN still has him undecided. That would leave only 3 on my count.

Mike McMahon looks to be voting "NO" again, but there still isn't a definite answer.

Looks like Charlie Melancon will vote "NO" again.

http://www.dailycomet.com/article/20100320/ARTICLES/100329981?Title=Melancon-to-vote-against-health-measure-

By my count that leaves 2 more. But these things aren't set in stone.

Nancy Pelosi will put on her strap on and force all donks to vote yes.

only if your failure to wipe makes you a danger to yourself or others and pursuant to a valid court order finding and requiring same.;)

Probably sitting on the fence waiting for a payoff from someone.

Boren has been a no for a while now I believe.

Correct JM. He strongly opposes the whole thing and the way this thing has been run. He was one of the first to say "no" this time around.

So what time are they voting on this ****ing abortion? I see times but no time zone references.

The bill is even more of a done deal. Breaking news just showed there has been an agreement between the anti-abortion dems and the other dems.

Now the states will have to say they won't enforce the bill.

Breaking news from the Senate. It may not be over with the House votes.
