It doesn't matter what they do, they're screwed.

I think that, despite the despicable attempt to force through mandatory Medicaid on Christmas Eve, it's very likely that they won't succeed, despite even more despicable attempts at intimidation. They're facing opposition from both sides: from within their party (moderates in particular) and partisans as much as from the rest of us, even if the reasons are different.

I have a glimmer of hope, for a change, that the government put in place of the people, by the people, and for the people, won't be able to ass-rape the super-majority that doesn't want them to pass this bill.
