The day after President Obama's State of the Union Address brought plenty of tough talk from Democrats, but no clear roadmap or timeline for passage of health care legislation.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid insisted, "We’re going to do health care reform this year."
While saying that they still intended to act on health care, Sen. Chuck Schumer said, "[T]he three top issues on our agenda this year are jobs, jobs and jobs."
Yet following a meeting with the Democratic caucus later in the day, Sen. Max Baucus declared, "I’m not saying it’s going to be done tomorrow. But I’m also saying it’s going to be done before spring, summer. We’re moving expeidiutiously. And expeditiously means quickly, solidly, thoughfully."

They have to appease the leftist nuts, but effectively healthcare, at least the Obamacare the senate passed that America hates is dead. Without 60 in the senate and not enough votes in the house for reconcilliation I believe America dodged a real bullet for the future of our country. I believe there will be a smaller version of some common points between republicans and democrats passed at some point this year just to give Obama something to talk about, but I predict the left will not be happy.

While we keep delaying action on healthcare reform, many hardworking people lack access to healthcare they can afford and pay a terrible price for trying to pay for what they need. Another family in our neighborhood just lost their home, not because they didn't work and try to pay their bills but because the health insurance they have doesn't cover their expenses.
The father has a serious illness and lost his job. The mother has a job and health insurance but she doesn't make enough to cover the uninsured medical and other expenses.
How long will we sit around and be satisfied that healthcare "Remains Up in the Air"?
