Pelosi spox - No Vote Tonight
She is about to speak per CNN.

Guess is from previously reported - Boehner fighting Defense cuts and can't get 216, Nancy can't bring around CBC and Progressive Caucus due to lack of revenue increases. This one will only come from 216 in the middle.

2. She just said she will meet with her caucus tomorrow
Progressive caucus not meeting until 2p to decide how to proceed.

6. There are 80-ish teabaggers in the house.. and the CBC and PC add up to about 110-ish

That's only 190.


They can get to 216 without the teabaggers and the CBC/PC.

9. 110 may be high.
I think there may be some overlap between the two?

7. Boehner is going to need about 2/3 of his folks, and Pelosi will need to come up with the rest
I think it will pass this time. All parties concerned know that the public is fed up with this spectacle.
