Deal with 'Blue Dogs' sets up health care vote

"WASHINGTON – After weeks of turmoil, House Democrats reached a shaky peace with the party's rebellious rank-and-file conservatives Wednesday and cleared the way for a vote in September on sweeping health care legislation."

Some good news finally health care seems like it might get done. I still wont believe it until its passed.

Baucus is such a big idiot, when is he going to figure out that these republicans he is working with don't want ANY health care reform? They are just delaying things until the bill is eventually dead.

Quote:

Wyoming Senator Mike Enzi, a Republican working with Baucus, said they are nowhere near a deal.
“We haven’t even gotten through the little issues,” Enzi said.

Republicans working with Baucus yesterday expressed doubt that they would reach an agreement and get a committee vote by Aug. 7, when the Senate breaks for recess.

Reid better cancel the recess till they come out with a bill in the finance committee.
