		<description>&lt;p&gt;Perhaps the progressive community would best spend it’s energy in getting Rahm Emanuel the hell out of the White House, rather than fighting each egregious act of capitulation to the conservative cause, as he instigates them?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would certainly support any move to get this scumbag out of government once and for all.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;I’m looking forward to seeing how many of our Blue America people vote for this. Howie is, I’m sure, watching very closely.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’ve been wondering this too.  Paul Hodes [NH] is not “my” congressman, but I’ve supported him through two elections with my $$$$$.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;His web site makes it impossible to send an e-mail to him unless you’ve got a zip code that’s within his district [or unless you can figure out ways to slip through].  ;-}&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He’s someone who’s come to the Lake for support, and he should be responsive on this, but I’m not seeing it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Howie?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Rock on, rockin’ Jane!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rahm’s whipping … FAIL.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jane’s whipping … WIN!!!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A good day for our side.  Obama waits until the project is in progress to see what’s going down and THEN he steps in.  That’s his tactical pattern.  He wants health care so bad he can taste it, I think.  He will get health care at the expense of just about everything else.  And pick up the pieces later.  In the meantime the ’left behinds’ are trashing their timeout corners and his political handlers are giving him the heebejeebees.  It’s a mess: it’s politics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have to make him do the right things.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go Jane!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Yeah, that was my thought. He’s going to need these votes for at least two years and he really can’t afford to throw them under the bus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I dunno how he’s going to keep those “go easy” deals, but he’d better keep any promises he made to those dems who support him. Word get’s around the Hill that he don’t pay his debts and congresscritters will start demanding his part of the deal FIRST.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Boxturtle (It is wrong of me to enjoy anothers misfortune. Perhaps I will be forgiven in this case)&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Don’t see how he can keep the threats - going to need everyone of those votes. It was a stupid move for him to make anyway.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wonder if Rahm will keep his threats?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;or his &lt;em&gt;deals&lt;/em&gt; - per Jane’s reportage - he’s purported to have promised to “go easy” on what were once &lt;em&gt;DCCC targeted &lt;/em&gt;Republicans:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;McCotter - MI&lt;br /&gt;
Dent - PA&lt;br /&gt;
Buchanan - FL&lt;br /&gt;
Young - FL&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Yes, easily. The GOP would support it, the antiwar dems would not have the votes to stop it. But the IMF and Holy Joe’s amendment would both go down in flames on their own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;IMO, if they can’t pass the IMF with the supplemental, the house leadership will move to strike the amendment. Then pass a clean bill for the war and try to attach IMF/Holy Joe to something else. &lt;/p&gt;
