Committee Chairman Sen. Max Baucus (D-MT) (R) listens to Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) (L) during a mark up hearing before the U.S. Senate Finance Committee on Capitol Hill October 1, 2009 in Washington, DC.
The Senate blew by a Republican filibuster on its health care reform bill Saturday, in a 60-39 vote along party lines. Some moderate Democratic backers say they wished to move to a floor vote, but will oppose the bill so long as it includes a government-run health insurance plan. Will the bill pass? And what will it look like when back room deals are done?
