House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is betting against heavy odds that she can get House Democrats to commit political suicide and pass the Senate's version of Obamacare. Mike Barone and others are predicting she won't have the votes. That means only one thing. She wants to get Obamacare off her plate one way or another. It's just too big of a political liability to carry into November.
