Obama and the Liberals in the House

The Hill: Reports how President Obama will have to work on House Liberals for them not to change the Senate Bill, if the House changes the Bill that will pass tomorrow that could be a threat to the survival of the Bill. This is the test for the Obama White House, can they keep liberals in the House from bolting but also get the moderate and conservative blue dogs to accept the Senate version on abortion, that is tricky. On whole this should be PR, and the President should have a bill on his desk to sign by the end of January 2010. Then the real job comes, selling the hike in taxes when the benefits don't kick in till four years later, that will be interesting to see from the Obama White House.
