2. still open as far as i can tell.

[napi21]

3. They're keeping it open.. Pelosi on one side & Boehner on the other

trying to get people to switch votes.

[TahitiNut]

8. Boehner is toast ... he barely delivered 1/3rd of his caucus ... 66-132

The House GOP will be looking for new "leadership".

4. looks like they are trying to (tom) 'Delay' the vote

[Eric J in MN]

16. Democrats were disgusted when the House Republicans kept voting open...

...to get Reps to change their votes.

Now Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is doing it.

[Jeanette in FL]

5. Arm twisting time

They need 19 votes to change right now to get it to pass

[TahitiNut]

10. Well.. it's a 19-vote margin so they need 10 switches.

:shrug: Math ... it's not just for breakfast anymore.

[Jeanette in FL]

15. LOL

Right you are.

[lib2DaBone]

6. One Republican Non Vote still out...

[LSK]

7. cspan.com will not come up, cant watch it

[napi21]

9. Every house member has voted. Total 434 and Teddy is not there.

HOWEVER, the market is coming back a bit. It was down 670 pts just a few minutes ago, and it's now at 373 pts.

[Eric J in MN]

11. If you mean Ted Kennedy, he's a Senator. NT

NT

[napi21]

20. Of course. Sorry, I was trying to think of who might be missing?

I guess it COULD be either Pelosi or Boehner.

[LSK]

12. Teddy is in the Senate

:shrug:

[TahitiNut]

14. (OK, I'll pile on, too) TEDDY IS IN THE SENATE!

:rofl:

[Solly Mack]

13. Nay votes have become Yea votes... 1 each from D & R

and this after time was out

could be more to follow?

[LSK]

17. finally, cspan stream is on, why are Dems voting against it?????

[TahitiNut]

18. Ask the progressive caucus and Dennis Kucinich.

Quite frankly, I agree with them. :shrug:

[Naturyl]

21. As Swamp Rat might say...

GEAUX KUCINICH!!!

[Eric J in MN]

19. They have different reasons.

Some are against the general idea of cash-for-trash.

Some liberal Democrats are upset that the bill doesn't let bankruptcy judges re-write mortgages.

Some fiscally-conservative Democrats are upset that there isn't a real plan to make up for the cost.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

22. Nancy hasn't had the gavel brought down..there may be some arm twisting,

compromising photos being flashed, who knows???

[Eric J in MN]

23. Or there any limits, or can Nancy Pelosi keep the vote open however long...

...she wants?

[Eric J in MN]

24. Vote now closed but they can try the whole vote again.
