Major announcement...Rat has changed his mind in the last 5 minutes.

I now stand with the "no's". Heard a woman, Obama person, say she was there with her kids when it passed, and they will never know what it is to worry about health care or insurance.

How dare Obama do that? I want my granddaughters to have the same opportunities their parents and grandparents did. Obama is destroying their liberty. His health bill is excising their worry warts with taxpayer money.

For me, the key will be how well the Dems starting framing the meaning of the vote. And how well they keep doing it through October. A very large percentage of the electoral opposition is built on gross misinformation. A good political campaign should reduce that.

As for down the road, past the 2010 elections, I don't see any way the Reps can recover from their "no" stance unless they change the subject.
