The Finance committee is less good about having links to view all of their hearings - though I can't imagine this won't be one that people want to cover. It is interesting that Kerry/Rockefeller are signaling their will be a fight for changes and Baucus is claiming that the bill out of committee will not have major changes. (I hope Baucus is as incapable of predicting Democratic actions on this as he was in predicting the Republican ones. If he has NO Republican on board with what he has (or even just Snowe), it will be interesting to see if this excluded group bands together. I would imagine that in addition to the unpopularity of his bill (it does unite Democrats and Republicans in disliking the plan part) and the frustration and anger they may feel being members of the committee of interest and being completely and publicly excluded might fuel a mutiny.
