Rep. Nathan Deal (R-Ga.) Postpones Resignation to Vote on Health Care

By GottaLaff

Deal or no deal:

Rep. Nathan Deal (R-Ga.) will not be leaving Congress on Monday, as he announced earlier this week, but will instead stay through the upcoming House vote on a health care overhaul. [...]

State party leaders had encouraged him resign his seat so he could dedicate himself full time to the race. But House GOP leaders urged Deal to stick around Washington a little longer after realizing that his departure would lower the threshold for passage of the health care bill from 217 to 216 votes.


As I said in a previous post, they're feeling more threatened than ever, because health care reform is about to become a reality.

Unfortunately, the more threatened they feel, the more desperate they become, and so the more smeary and feary and irrational they get.

The next few weeks should be a barrel of laughs.
