From the Associated Press (emphasis added):

WASHINGTON – House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer says the Senate health care bill is better than Congress failing to deliver on President Barack Obama’s top domestic initiative.
The Maryland Democrat told reporters Tuesday: “The Senate bill clearly is better than nothing.”
He declined to say whether the House could pass the Senate bill, one possible way lawmakers might proceed if Democrats lose the Massachusetts Senate election Tuesday. The seat represents the 60th vote for health care in the Senate.
Hoyer said negotiators still hadn’t resolved all of the outstanding issues to finalizing a bill.
