1. Two for two for my state! I didn't worry about Murphy and Courtney too much though.

Just waiting to see about Himes.

2. Good! I've just been calling my Rep Arcuri

since I've been home on break and the lines are constantly busy..and I have to go back to work but I've called twice before and written two letter so it sounds like others are calling. I hope they're for the HRC.

4. I hope he is under a lot of pressure to vote for it.

5. Does that mean there's just one left? Yesterday the magic number was 3, meaning 3 remaining to

commit and make it 216.

With Stupak and Courtney now firm YES votes, that makes one remaining correct? We have 215?

6. Periello a yes now, too.
