First, the House Committees working up the health care bill finished and a vote is planned sometime soon. Also, the Seante Health Committee finished their bill
Second, Baucus, chairman of the Finance Committee, said they would have a bill done by the end of the day today. Which is huge because Baucus was trying too hard to get repub votes and Harry told him to stop. Rare backbone for Harry.
Third, Harry Reid said the senate would vote on the health care bill by the end of the month.
Lastly, Obama is steering closer and closer to going it alone w/o repub votes for the health care bill. Which is very important b/c he was emphasizing bipartisanship for sometime now. Which, I wrote about earlier, depends on the definition of "bipartisan".
