Terry, it is not the "lying" Republicans who are preventing the health care bill from being passed.

House Democratic leaders don’t have the votes to pass healthcare reform. At least not yet.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has expressed confidence that when push comes to shove, healthcare reform will pass Congress. But there will be plenty of pushing in the days ahead.


Pelosi is clearly down in the vote count. Thirty-four House Democrats are either firm no votes or leaning no, according to The Hill’s whip list. Dozens more are undecided.

Terry, it is the Democratic House members who have no desire to commit political suicide, passing the bill against the will of their voters.

And Terry....perhaps, just perhaps, the voters are right.
