I think Obama was just looking for a vote, not actually getting anything through...

The word is the Whitehouse has worked a number of inside deals with the Industry and is waiting to put these in the Senate bill.

That is a looong reach. Obama would have given up his LEFT arm to
pass that bill exactly the way it was.

Don't agree...the Senate wasn't any where close to a bill...

Imho, and seeing the recent Bills passed under Obama with his Party in control over both Houses passing them with lighting speed,
HC would have flown past the Senate.

It's Obama's MO, and HC is his "signature piece."
