Lincoln is a Yes to proceed; no doubt. The Senate bill is pro-abortion, and compels government funding of abortion. Nothing could make the pro-abortion Lincoln any happier.

** And take note: if this “proceeds” (yes vote on Saturday), Reid could then wrap this Senate bill into another shell bill which has already passed cloture; so there need not be a filibuster vote (cloture vote) later. In other words, the Saturday vote may be the last chance to stop this in the Senate.

Not good for the Country; not good for the people of this State; and definitely not good for people who are out of work and looking for a job. The taxes in the Senate bill are job killers.

Now that nelson and liberman are voting yes and the senator from LA is bound to now that she has been bought and paid for, Senator Lincoln is the only hope to block it. Everyone call and email her. I have little faith she will vote no but lets at least try. After Saturday night this is going to be hard to stop and we will end up with some version of Government run healthcare.

” I almost feel bad for my friend Blake Rutherford as well as the good folks at the Arkansas Blog for having to tow the party line on this one.”

C’mon Jason. I don’t.
