Why are people here saying it "died". Am I missing something? It's a regular occurence not to put something on the floor if you don't have enough votes.

There are 19 no votes and enough undecideds that if half vote for it, it will be enough.
We don't even have a solid whip count, so the no's are probably higher.

All I am saying is that it's not an uncommon occurrence to delay legislation. The ACA was delayed 6 times in the house, and IIRC, TARP was delayed twice.

This is a much better position now than a month ago.

Get it through the house, let the moderates do what they want with it in joint committees, and be done with it.
This isn't a better position at all, I mean this is what happens when you gut Congressional procedures and try to herd cats.

Every California Republican voted for this.
Hopefully every single one loses. I want to see Valado, Knight, Waters, Issa, and the rest lose badly after this sh*tfest.

Disgraceful.
