The leader of the pro-abortion contingent in the House of Representatives claims pro-life advocates don't have the votes to stop the pro-abortion Senate health care bill there. However, it appears Rep. Diana DeGette's arithmetic may need some updating as opponents have the advantage....
The House approved its bill 220-215 and the defection of Stupak, Cao, and those 10-12 Democrats would be enough to defeat the measure. With no Republicans planning to vote for the Senate bill, Democrats have to hope for some votes from among the gains among the 39 House Democrats who voted against the bill last time.
Yet, the Wall St. Journal surveyed all House Democrats who voted against the House bill and found just a half dozen members who say they are undecided or leaning yes.
Republican leaders are confident Pelosi will not be able to get the votes to pass the bill.
Pray, pray, pray.
Penance, penance, penance.
