Almost all last minute ObamaCare-supporting Dems going down to defeatFrom Eric Dondero:
The last slew of polls have been released. So what about all those Democrats who walked the plank for Nancy Pelosi on the Health Care bill earlier this year? As The Hill points out, Pelosi's legions in the House, many moderate Democrats, are mostly all goners.
From The Hill "House Dems who pushed health bill to passage face grim Election Day" Oct. 29:
President Obama and Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) needed every vote they could muster to push the bill through the House in March. The legislation passed 219-212, but for some Democrats, that vote could prove to be their political death.The liberal-leaning The Hill is being a bit kind to at least two of the four "in tossup races." In actuality, Kanjorski and Mitchell have been steadily behind their opponents in the last few weeks, by decent margins.
Democratic Reps. Ann Kirkpatrick (Ariz.), Suzanne Kosmas (Fla.), Debbie Halvorson (Ill.), Kathy Dahlkemper (Pa.), Carol Shea-Porter (N.H.), Mary Jo Kilroy (Ohio), Steve Driehaus (Ohio) and Betsy Markey (Colo.) were all late yes votes on health reform. Most, if not all, of them will lose on Tuesday, according to nonpartisan campaign experts.
Other Democrats who announced their support in the last few days before the March 21 vote are in tossup races, including Reps. Harry Mitchell (Ariz.), Paul Kanjorski (Pa.), Chris Carney (Pa.) and Bill Foster (Ill.).
