1. 'Top Democrat' is President Obama
He can make them stay until it gets done.

2. MSNBC reporting this as well
Reid has said there will be no vote before the recess.

You know, if this doesn't pass it won't "break" Obama. It'll break the Democratic Congress, which is fucking up a golden opportunity.

4. The longer the delay in the vote, the more money from special
interest groups go into their coffers---on both sides.

The delay isn't about the country. It's about the pockets of the Senators.
