Baucus The Bribed to Introduce Health Care Reform Bill on Tuesday
TPM has the story

"The Senate Finance Committee should have a draft of their health care reform bill tomorrow, chair Max Baucus (D-MT) said in a news conference today."


I don't think he mentioned how much the insurance companies 'bribed' him. It might be legal, but it is still bribery.

1. "Should have"
It all depends if the lobbyists finish the draft by then and get it over to Baucus.
