I'm kind of starting to think you're an idiot. Read things in context and stop just trying to go "Gotcha! hahaha dumb republican" in every response.

My exact quote was "The idea is/was that they need to get more members on board so it looks like a bipartisan deal and not a party line vote and is more reassuring to citizens."

Yes, if they wanted to pass it on a party line vote they could have last Thursday. It's had the Democratic votes to pass all along. So why hasn't it? Because BOTH PARTIES WANT IT TO LOOK BIPARTISAN.

And both have said that they want to know how McCain is going to vote or what they need to get his vote. Why? Because the Democrats don't want to back it and have McCain not and be stuck in a corner with the President while Republicans don't want to put out a policy position to have pinned to their nominee if he doesn't agree with it. Looking at the fact that both sides have been watching to see what he's going to do, it kind of makes more sense for him to be there, doesn't it?
