When is the vote
Is it 10pm, or what exactly? I thought it was supposed to be 8pm but it is still debate.

1. According to C-Span
Edited on Sun Mar-21-10 07:25 PM by Bluzmann57
it is supposed to be somewhere around 8:30 Central time. 9:30 EDT, 7:30 MDT AND 6:30 PDT. Just fyi. But with the Congress, who really knows?

2. It was suppose to be at eight but..
I think the CONS are trying to delay it. I heard them discussing it on msnbc and they said don't be surprised if they don't vote until 12:00 am

4. Whenever they shut up ...

There's a time limit on the debate, but the Republicans have been pulling every stall tactic out of the air they can, up to and including just shouting over people and causing a delay while the House is brought to order again.

Ya should have seen it this morning when all the "points of order" were streaming one right after the other. I was genuinely expecting one of them to ask for a parliamentary clarification on the meaning of "is" without even a hint of irony.
