Anyone with a clue about party politics knows that the GOP has been the lock step party for at least 2 decades.
The Democrats don't have the abortion litmus test the GOP requires to be nominated in nearly all their seats.
Hence the sticking point. What will happen is a resolution where abortion procedures while still legal will fall under procedures that aren't covered.

All I hear is excuses.

Jeez, anyone think that maybe the modified Baucus Plan is just bad law? I have no doubt it sucks since Harry Reid is involved with the process.

It is even more impressive when compared to what GWB "accomplished".

Because neither are FoxNews regulars.
You have to live in a cave not to know Stupak is one of the most outspoken right to life Demcrats.

Maybe they can mock you instead.
Do you always play the dog in the manger card when people like Stupak exist and it doesn't fit into your neat little file system?
