That is correct. You're not hearing things. This is NOT a drill. One of the congressional staffers I spoke to said that the vote "could" happen today. Just thought I'd alert you all.

My gut just went through the roof.

I sure will miss my gut.

I wouldn't doubt it.

I just sent a fax to Shadegg. Blistering. He is up in Nov.

C Span said 5 EST.

I was thinking...what if they try and vote while everyone and their brother is watching the VP Debate.

I have been thinking the same thing.

They want all watching the debate so they are not slamming their lines.

Glad I made my calls today. I know some people were planning on waiting until the morning.

Michelle Bauckman on our side. Doesn't like the bill.

Shadegg said an hour ago they got 12 more votes. Not good.

He has two votes here voting him out of office in Nov. along with as many more I can drum up.

Let them keep saying things like that. They think it works in their favor to convey confidence of passage prior to the vote, but I think it does just the opposite in this case in that it makes the ones who are on the fence feel like they can let go of this hot potato and vote against it.

They kept saying they were certain it was going to pass in the house the first time, as well.

I had a feeling they might. I posted as much in the Economics and Sound Money forum. These people will stop at NOTHING!

They've been accelerating their reign of terror the past few months, so there's just no telling what's in store for us. PREPARE NOW, if you haven't already.
