I don't know if they can make it palatable enough for both sides to get all the GOP votes they need.
I don't know. I know they are trying to sweeten the deal for them, but they can only lose two. So courting the moderates with money for pet projects and not changing the bill can push conservatives further away. I don't think they will get it to pass. They are up to nine, now, aren't they?
