42. They are facing re-election
and they have to go home to an angry constiuency and explain to them why Goldman Sachs is making 3 billion a quarter and they can't find work. That coupled with having to explain how the Stupak amendment made it into the House Bill and that unemployment and mortgage foreclosures are going up. It is about to be winter and more people are going to go without heat than went without it last year. The states they reside in are cutting services.

They followed the White House direction for 10 months and they are seriously pissed off right now at where they are at.
