It's not worth it. We cannot put the country at risk for Obamacare. Besides, The eighteen Republicans would include those representing Democratic districts, like Chris Gibson and Jon Runyan, who cannot be successfully primaried without giving the seat to the Democrats in the general election. They need to stand firm, all 232 House Republicans.

Somebody on the dem side must watched legallyblonde2. I wonder if they'll get a bunch of interns to dance around and give free haircuts next.

UPDATE: Looks like the discharge petition fell flat over partisan lines. Peter King is such a jerk. Just read the crap he says in the article. Sounds like he doesn't care about principles, but rather only getting elected again.
