30 inches of snow, are they snowed in? My husband thinks people will be so busy with Christmas that they can this to pass.

They still have a long way to go. Even if the Senate passes this, they still have to reconcile with the House bill (vastly different bills) and get the final product through both bodies. There's still hope it will be defeated in the end. Call and write your Senator's and Representatives.

There was no "vote"...... just a bunch of "bribes". Ben Nelson held out and what did he get in exchange for his vote? You and I will be paying for his states Medicaid and his people won't!

From Fox News:
That didn't do much to please some anti-abortion lawmakers. But Nelson also won several other concessions, most notably a commitment from the federal government to fully fund his state's expanded Medicaid population. All states get full federal assistance for the first three years of the bill -- but Nebraska would be the only state getting full assistance afterward. One Democratic official put the cost to the federal government at $45 million over a decade.

Pivotal Senate Health Vote Looms

With the democrats seemingly willing to push this through, do you think it will hurt them come election time?

Seems as of this time no republican will vote for it.
