7 p.m. ET: OK, last update of the night and then — I promise — we’ll go back to blogging about Kate Winslett’s cleavage or Rielle Hunter or something more interesting than the Zombie Health Care Cramdown That Won’t Die.

Introducing ObamaCare 2.0: The 2,309-Page Scam That Will Live in Infamy

Philip Klein of the American Spectator: Shortly before midnight on Sunday, Democrats released a 2,309 page health care bill that will start the process of reconciliation — but don’t let that fool you, it’s not the actual reconciliation bill with all the changes you’ve been reading about.

How Bad Is It for Charlie Crist?

“At this point, it doesn’t look like he could win a Republican Primary for Dog Catcher.” — Dean Debnam, president of Public Policy Polling Kind of a nice plan you had there, Mr. Crist. All you had to do was to embrace Obama and get John Cornyn’s big money boys at the NRSC lined up […]
