Orrin Hatch Says Health Care Vote Will Start "Holy War"
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Thursday that the Senate will take its first procedural vote on his health care bill at 8 p.m. on Saturday, CBS News Capitol Hill Producer John Nolen reports.

Once the ball is rolling on health care, however, Republicans plan to pull out all the stops against it. They could use procedural tactics to draw out the debate, such as requesting the entire 2,000-plus page document be read aloud.

"It's going to be a holy war," Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) told the Los Angeles Times.

6. What a great way that would be to honor Ted Kennedy if Hatch truly was his friend:
to allow the bill to come to the floor for debate and a vote even if he did not support the bill.
