Are the Republicans just going for the shorthand win (with "tax cuts for all")...is this about winning on a bill? So if they had their health care

I think they would still do this. They need their donors; they can't win enough elections just on merits. -- nm - mara Nov 30, 14:47

    - Don't worry about it. I've even lost track of what is in the bill. And it's going to keep changing as the vote-a-rama in the Senate continues. - ReluctantCynic Nov 30, 14:59
- Frankly, anything right now is just conjecture. There are pretty big differences in the bills that have to be reconciled. -- nm - spamlet Nov 30, 14:50 3
