Can Reid schedule the vote on HCR the day before they are set to adjourn for their winter/holiday
recess? Let the GOP filibuster it and keep all of their colleagues in session until it is passed? They really want to be home with their families for the holidays. I say, don't let them go until they accept a cloture vote. Anything stopping him from that?

2. So keep them there. Let them miss the holidays with their families? Any thing to stop him from doing
that?

4. It makes too much sense so it probably won't happen.
All they want out of a health care bill is more profit for the insurance companies anyway. They have already proved that by allowing the Senate Finance committee to submit their blow job to the insurance companies as reform.
