Indefinite Non Stop Voting Until They Pass A Bill. GOP Strategy.

Like the marathon dances of the 1920's the GOP will engage in voting until a bill passes. So the next several days we will see vote after vote after vote until they repeal our health care system. The vote to proceed gives McConnell the ability ti jeep the Senate in session 24 hours a day until everyone wears down and just votes yes on whatever.

After all, he just flew two-thirds of the way across the country while recovering from surgery, so I'm sure he's rarin' to go in a marathon session.

Mitch: John, dang! Thanks for being there for us, buddy.

John: My pleasure, Mitch. Anything for the party that hurts the country.

M: Now that you're hear, we've got a couple more votes if you don't mind.

J: Well, uh, sure, I guess. I'm a little tired, but you know, GOP over USA.

M: Great. (Flips through several pages) We got, uhh, huh. About 72 procedural votes to cover. Ready?

J: Why didn't I stay in Arizona?
