LOL...with the dems owning the WH, Senate and House right now, whats the surprise? and its joyous and delightful one puny republican voted for it while 39 dems voted againt it? sounds like desperation more than jubilation to me. its just one battle in the war...don't forget, theres the senate yet. and the vote will be closer to the 2010 elections. i dont hear the fat lady even tuning up yet.

Well, we can't forget that many dems voting against it did so because it didn't go far enough. Our liberal democrats did not support this version. It will be interesting when the conservative dems who voted against this bill come up for re-election. From what I was hearing and reading this week, the "big democratic losses" were dems who were not supporting the public option. That says a lot right there.

How convenient that the inception date won't occur until after the 2012 election.
