The main question proceeding actual voting on any bill is:  Does the House have enough votes to pass the Senate bill and does the Senate have enough votes to pass the Reconciliation bill after that?  When passing a reconciliation bill, only majority is needed. While this does enable easier passing of any legislation, it truly points out the lack of support at the Congressional level.

With President Obama postponing his out-of-country travels over the weekend, it is clear the push has begun. Through broadcasts on "Meet the Press" over the weekend, it became awfully clear that both sides are lacking votes. With the hypothetical deadline arriving, the President has made a clear statement that a decision must be given this week.
