Fox is reporting that the House will go into session at 1:00 PM and will take a vote later today. There are many conflicting reports, which is not surprising. Rep. Paul Ryan pointed out that the situation is in flux. The House Democratic Caucus chairman says they have the votes. Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Shulz says they don't have a hard 216. House Minority Leader John Boehner says they don't have the votes.
The bottom line is this: If they aren't sure they have the votes they will not take a vote today. As fellow blogger and lawyer Doug Mataconis so aptly pointed out in the United Liberty podcast, the only thing worse than another delay, is a vote that doesn't pass.
