Democratic Sen. Ben Nelson (D., Neb.) who has more flip-flops than the cast of Jersey Shore, now says he supports reconciliation as a means to pass health-care reform, so long as he supports the underlying bill (which is far from clear).
“I’ve been asked about whether I’d support using the process known as reconciliation now. So, I want to make it clear: If I support a bill, then I will vote for it regardless of whether it takes 50 votes to pass or 60 votes to pass. My position doesn’t change just because the House or Senate decides to change the process.”
