Will this deal pass?

Is it possible it won't get enough votes?

4. Actually, it is the House vote that is more problematic.

I am not sure if there are enough votes in the house, we will see probably by tonight.

5. I predict the right wing wackadoodles in the House will vote it down.

If Obama, Reid and Pelosi are for it, no matter how lousy a deal we may feel it is, they will be against it.

7. Of course it will pass

You think passing the deal was not part of the deal? There will be about 180 republican and 100 democratic votes for the bill.

8. Not sure that it will...

Edited on Mon Aug-01-11 09:54 AM by liberalmuse

then again, it's hard to tell. If it doesn't, then it will hit home that the kind of people we're dealing with are far more dangerous than we currently believe them to be. It'll mean they are beyond rationality of any kind, and I predict a revolution in our near future.

9. tea party will vote no and Dems in the House will vote yes for them

It all works out very nicely, doesn't it? It will pass with Dem support.

Kinda makes me want to vomit.

11. I Don't Know...

The individual caucus meetings sound as if a lot of people are pretty pissed off...The Black Caucus definitely doesn't want to see this thing go through. It will be interesting.
