Dem sources confirm: At least 218 votes reached-We have won!

Dems sources: 218 is on the way
At this moment, Democratic sources say their internal head counts have them breaking through the 218 mark this afternoon. Whether that will mean that more Democrats will come on board, or that Pelosi is going to cut other members lose, is still unclear. But Dems are confident they have won.

I won't post the link because many here would find it objectionable but it comes from a website that starts with P.

5. Hold those champagne corks

No vote has been cast yet.

And even if we win this vote, remember Magic Johnson's words: you don't tear down the net for winning the conference championship.

This would be more like winning the first round in the playoffs. We still have the Senate, the conference committee and then the House AND Senate votes on the conference report.

You don't know yet. In terms of the party passing anything, yeah, sure.
