The New York Times has an interactive map of the House vote on health insurance reform yesterday.
The lone Republican who voted yes, Anh Joseph Cao, from Louisiana, claims he "voted for life" last night. Among the right wingers on twitter, "traitor" seems to be one of the favorite attacks on Cao. But, that's not the ugliest thing they're saying.
The reason Cao said he "voted for life" was because pro-choice Democrats were thrown under the bus by the Stupak amendment. 64 Democrats gave that win to the GOP.
It's always the progressives who lose out. Adam Green has more on the bill, which he says was "watered down, watered down, watered down. And still, only 219 Dems."
