they don't have the votes (UPDATE)

Levin helped break this story on his show last night...Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) says they don't have the votes for Obama's jobs bill (a.k.a. jobs 'killing' bill, or as Levin calls it the 'Save Obama's job bill'). My response: "Not enough votes to raise taxes? GOOD!"



Here's more details...


Although, I kinda agree with Levin as well, "Bring up the Obama bill. Let's get the vulnerable Democrats voting. Let's get the oil state Democrats voting. Let's get the Democrats who are scared to death about raising taxes, let's get 'em voting. Let's take the issue away from Obama, when he loses 5,6,7 Democrat votes in a bipartisan defeat. That's what needs to be done."

UPDATE: On Monday, Cantor says that Obama's jobs bill is dead on arrival in the House.
