The Dems would be stupid to pull the 'reconciliation' trick. The Reps would murder them in the next election cycle with it.


It would upset a bunch of people who probably didn't vote for them in the last election cycle. They were not elected to avoid health care reform like the other party.


You're absolutely right, MEM. It's not like there is a group of voters who aren't registered to either the Democratic or Republican parties and vote based upon their own personal conscious instead of along party lines. Recent polls haven't showed that a majority of voters, including people from this fictional 'independent' status, have turned against the Health Care Reform plans of Congress and the President. There's no way that Dems won't get re-elected even if they bypass the will of the people and ram through a massively unpopular piece of legislation.


Don't Zick that. He thinks you're "changing the subject."
