Update 10:21 a.m.: Delays, big and small, continue to plague the Democrats’ major health care legislation.

Officials said the meeting at the White House has been postponed because the House of Representatives have floor votes scheduled. It was not immediately clear when the meeting would take place or why House Democratic leaders could not adjust the floor schedule.

3. They know that most Democrats are extremely upset with them. The solution is quite simple

just go through reconciliation and either get a public option or Medicare for all. It has the votes to pass

Yesterday the California Democratic Committee called for a donation, and I told them until viable HCR was passed, the only thing you can expect from me is I won't vote republican. I mentioned that when the DNC contributed over 400K for anti-public option ads in Nebraska for Ben Nelson that pretty much sealed it for me as far as any monetary donations

They told me that they represented the California Democratic party, NOT the DNC. I said, unless the Democratic party as a whole proves to me they can take charge, no more money from me

4. This Obama guy, who does he think he is? And health care, is that a priority or something?
