Reid also said he's sorry Olympia snowe is afraid of the public option, but hopes that she comes back on board.

Awesome, Harry!

4. Yes 60 votes maybe to shut down the filibuster, but does he have 51 to pass the legislation?
With the Blue damn Dogs voting with the republicants, it may be close.

5. from what I'm seeing Reid proposed several variations on the Opt-out and waiting on CBO to
make final decision, right?

6. So whatever happened to the CBO report on HR 676?
Love to see how Harry would try to spin a justification to NOT go with that, when it proved to be the best plan.
