The Big Health Care Vote

By GottaLaff

I'm tired of the number 60:

The latest schedule for the health care vote suggests that very early Monday morning -- at around 1:00 am ET -- the Senate will vote to break the filibuster on the "managers' amendment."

First Read: "The amendment will include all the last-minute fixes, most importantly stripping the public option and suitable abortion language. Once this part of the bill is passed, it's effectively done. If Reid gets 60 on this, the other votes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday should fall into place like dominoes."

As of now, Reid does not have the 60 votes.

Today Paul Krugman joins the "Pass it, it's better than nothing" side.
