Subject: RE: BS: Mass. Senatorial race
The Senate bill is a done deal. In the House--if the Democrats were united--they wouldn't need Republican support.
Concern about filibustering is a red herring. It's not possible in the House--as I think you know.
As I said, it's up to the House liberals to be ready to compromise. So far, no sign of it--because their liberal supporters refuse to do so.
And the consequences in the fall will not be pretty.
