Online Phone Bank Up to Call Nevada Dems to Pressure Reid

to accept a public option in the final HCR bill. Link: http://action.firedoglake.com/page/content/warroom/ (click on button and sign up)

It would be nice to know that he said he thinks he has the votes. Whether he did or he didn't, I think the WH would find him the votes if the public option were in the final bill, because they've shown how much they want a bill. They'd horsetrade w/ Snowe and ride herd on Lieberman (he could lose his committee chairs), etc. The insurance cos. might even signal they want it b/c there'd still be more treats than tricks in the bill from their standpoint, which should get the Blue Dogs on board. Look, they gave Sanders the community clinics to get him to sign on. They'll find carrots for Nelson, Landrieu, & Lincoln as well, if they have to.

In an hour and a half (8:30am NV time) I'm going to start calling. Either you're in or you're out. It's up to you, but it would be really nice if you didn't go out of your way to discourage others.

Not meant as discouragement, but it's standard practice on DU to provide links, and that's not only applicable when it's convenient.

Also, if he said this 4 months ago, lots of water under that bridge; how is it applicable now, when so many opinions and povs have changed.

Finally, I'd like to know how honest fdl is being here.

Please don't bring your war from another thread over here.
