Speaking from the Rose Garden about 14 hours after the late Saturday vote, Obama urged senators to be like runners on a relay team and "take the baton and bring this effort to the finish line on behalf of the American people."

The problem is that the Senate won't run with it. The government health insurance plan included in the House bill is unacceptable to a few Democratic moderates who hold the balance of power in the Senate.

If a government plan is part of the deal, "as a matter of conscience, I will not allow this bill to come to a final vote," said Sen. Joe Lieberman, the Connecticut independent whose vote Democrats need to overcome GOP filibusters.

"The House bill is dead on arrival in the Senate," Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said dismissively. FULL ARTICLE

Joe will, but, good ol' Olympia Snow and her accomplice from Maine will cross over. It will be close, right now I'd say 12:13 against passage. There are enough moderate/conservative dems and Liberman to counter the RINO's. We must hope Reid doesn't find some bribe that will shift one or two of the dems.
