A Day to Remember

I am thrilled! The House of Representatives has passed the health care reform bill with 219 votes--three more than necessary for passage. My heart goes out to Nancy Pelosi for making this happen; this is her day, the first day of Spring. She knew where the votes were and where they were not--and certainly not among the republicans who made false statements and mischaracterized the bill all day. It was boring but worthwhile to watch congress in action. Pelosi told the president earlier in this game that he could not win any republican support, and she was right--not one vote!

With hardly a minute to celebrate, Pelosi will have to address the Fall elections And all of us need to get back to the issues of the economy, jobs and the Middle East. Say, isn't Hilary Clinton doing a great job?
