Final Procedural Motion Falls, Healthcare Vote Tomorrow 7AM

Harry Reid and the Democrats have taken the last step to reach their goal of a simple majority up or down vote on the Senate Healthcare bill.  While the bill may not be the change progressives wanted, it is a testament to the leadership abilities of Senator Harry Reid that they were able to get 60 votes three times in the last three days to pave the road to the final vote tomorrow morning.

There hasn't been a bill that has addressed problems with healthcare access in decades so it's impressive that they could get this passed before the new year.

Take a look at a bit of the press conference after the last procedural vote below:
