?list=PLFP2anW8sIRMt2dJKUb8Oj26zICbgfbF8Sen. McConnell delayed a vote on the Senate GOP health care bill after 9 senators come out against it. But Lawrence O'Donnell explains the real reason Sen. McConnell pulled the bill: that the real number against the bill was probably higher a lot higher.
95-5 is the real reasons, Thank you Lawrence....................

(9,897 posts)I wouldn't imagine that a bill that big would even get out of a GOP only committee if the votes in the room were 5 for and 9 against...the worst case would have to be a minimum of 8 or 9 "yes" in that room...unless they are so craven that they would vote yea in committee and then see the flood of support ebbing and come out as "nay" after...

(24,713 posts)voting, he and the leadership conference would have voted for the bill, all those yahoo's that always stand behind him those 5 men.
They are the death panel and yes there was the 13 in the room drafting the sh*t bill. But they are coming back this Friday with another CBO score, to vote after the recess, we, now more than ever need to stand up and resist, and if any of them are in parades , time to be standing in the crowds with placards and voicing our opinion of this death panel legislation.
They do not want to go into September without this measure being on the table, because then there is the 60 vote threshold that has to be reached on budget matters.
So make time to go to a parade and ......................give them hell
