The year-long battle to dramatically change the nation s ailing health care system may be coming to an end. House and Senate Democratic leaders are confident they are very close to passing health care reform. CBS News chief White House correspondent Chip Reid reports that Democrats seem to think they are closer than they ve ever been and are confident it is going to pass in the next couple of weeks. But one thing House Democrats are really worried about, says Reid, is that they will pass the bill, be out there with what to some is a politically unpopular vote, and then the Senate will fail to pass it. When asked this morning on The Saturday Early Show if he believes the Senate is trustworthy, Rep. Anthony Wiener, D-N.Y., said that in the past the House has passed bills which the Senate has let die 290 times. There have been many cases where it s been problematic, sometimes because of their rules or they re just institutionally that way, Weiner said. But fool me once, shame on me; fool me 290 times, shame on us. So the Senate will have to provide real assurances - as Reid points out, sign in blood that they are going to pass this thing.
