House Democrats' 'no' votes are piling up as healthcare reform moves forward

The Hill "At least 25 House Democrats will reject the healthcare reform legislation, according to a survey by The Hill, a review of other media reports and interviews with lawmakers, aides and lobbyists. Dozens of House Democrats are undecided or won't comment on their position on the measure." The Hill's survey/tracking of House Democrats' positions on healthcare reform legislation. "House Democrats not on this list are expected to vote yes. However, some members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus who are not mentioned below have threatened to vote no unless the Senate's immigration-related provisions are changed. All House Republicans are expected to vote no." And this: Stupak: I don’t think I can live with reconciliation. "skepticism is one thing, courage is another."From the comments to the last link.
