Tomorrow should be wild.
The talking heads are split. Obama thinks that the fact the bill was defeated and passage was delayed will make for a better bill.
There are some who say the more levels of revision a bill undergoes, the more earmarks and pork go into it before time for a vote.
Like you, I'm not thrilled by this, but knew its passage would be an inevitability.
