Time to start the war chest against all the dem senators up for reelection in 2010. Please start saving your pennies to donate extra money to defeat the two prostitutes who put this over the top:  Senators Landrieu (D, LA) and Lincoln (D, AR). Harsh language, but it fits.

New Orleans Voice: (504) 589-2427, Fax:(504) 589-4023

Lake Charles Voice: (337) 436-6650, Fax:(337) 439-3762

ABC News' Jonathan Karl reports:

What does it take to get a wavering senator to vote for health care reform?
Here’s a case study.

On page 432 of the Reid bill, there is a section increasing federal Medicaid subsidies for “certain states recovering from a major disaster.”

The section spends two pages defining which “states” would qualify, saying, among other things, that it would be states that “during the preceding 7 fiscal years” have been declared a “major disaster area.”
I am told the section applies to exactly one state: Louisiana, the home of moderate Democrat Mary Landrieu, who has been playing hard to get on the health care bill.
