At Pelosi's side were Georgia congressman and civil rights-era leader John Lewis and her close friend Rep. David Obey (D-Wisc.).

Speaking to HuffPost's Arthur Delaney, Rep. Dingell expressed confidence that reform would pass when asked if he thought Democrats had the votes.

"I wouldn't be walking this way if I didn't," said the Michigan Democrat, who ambled into the meeting on crutches instead of in a wheelchair. The caucus could be heard applauding him when he entered the room.

Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) told HuffPost that Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) and his anti-abortion bloc of Democrats were not discussed during a last-minute morning meeting of Democrats. He echoed Speaker Pelosi in saying he expected the bill would pass. Asked whether Stupak would be a 'yes' vote, Rep. Sandy Levin said, "I think so."

Final vote on the Senate bill: 219-212

1. She is so full of shit

it hurts.

[GOPNotForMe]

2. Um, explain please.

[ixion]

3. impeachment is "off the table"

'nuff said.

[GOPNotForMe]

4. Hate to quote Scalia, but GET OVER IT.

Or rather, enjoy being unhappy perpetually. Your choice really. I hear it's really great for your skin.

[ixion]

5. as long as there are corrupt career pols like we've got now, you can rest assured

that I will live out my remaining days in utter misery. Thanks.

7. When the bill really does start working for people. People allowed more free movement..

to jobs they feel more happy in. There will be folks that will see the good that was done today, but it's only the start if people are ready to work for health care reforms. The potential to be happier and freer reduces hostilities in itself, so as Rep John Lewis says give health care a chance.

8. don't hold your breath. nt

[Quantess]

10. Non sequitor. Is that all you've got?

Someone help ixion out.

[ixion]

11. Since when are war crimes a non-sequitor?

That sort of the same non-chalant attitude Pelosi and the DLC crowd take to it as well.

[Demeter]

14. It's Called "Privilege"

She's full of Privilege, the privilege of the wealthy, powerful and well-connected. She wants to keep it, too, hence the reluctance to so anything that smacks of "Change to benefit the average person".

Because if Change occurs, she won't be so privileged. On a scale of 0-100, she might drop to 95. Can't have that. Wouldn't be prudent.

[ProgressOnTheMove]

6. Well I congratulate her managing to get anything through Congress is no easy task. We'd see a ...

different picture if anyone of us were in her shoes. The facts speak for themselves she is the most effective Speaker in modern history. Great work Madam Speaker.

[BlueMTexpat]

9. Given the adamantly-opposed-to-ANYthing GOPers and the

chickensh** Blue Dog Dems she is saddled with, it's a miracle that she's able to get anything to pass.

[FailureToCommunicate]

12. Yes, congrats to Polosi. But she SHOULD use a teleprompter. The more she rambled last night

the more nervous we became. Good Speaker of the House. Not so good "speaker"

[Lerkfish]

13. unless she wants an abortion.
