Our best chances of having the DA pass is if the health care bill (and energy reform and financial reform bills, Iraq & Afghanistan bills, other bills, etc.) passes and (stressed heavily) if the economy gets better and the unemployment rate (currently at 9.8%) decreases.

But, of course, the Republicans will stall everything for months and months like they're doing with the health care bill yet the Democrats have yet to grow some spines for goodness sake.

Obama better start improving the economy ASAP.
