Pence: they don’t have the votes

In an interview with Greta van Susteren on March 11, Rep. Mike Pence makes one key point over and over, that the Democrats do not have the votes yet, and therefore the people should keep pressuring their representatives to oppose the bill. His specific analyses of the Democrats’ problems don’t matter very much, and some of them have already been overtaken by events. For example, since March 11, the Democrats have given up on the Stupak language and are now simply pressuring the Stupak group to vote for the bill without the language; further, according to Stupak in an interview at NRO yesterday, two of his group members have already folded and consented to vote for the bill.
