Blue dogs hold the majority of power in the senate and they are not buying into PelosiCare. There
are directives in the legislation which the moderates simply find unacceptable. Sen Lieberman sides with them.
Reid has already indicated the possibility of not only delaying the vote this year, but not scheduling a floor debate. Then again Pelosi told us the House was to be deferred.
Even so, Reid must continue working the crowd to obtain 60 votes. The votes are necessary to shut down floor discussion once he's ready to go to a final vote.
