The Mark-Up, 07-20-2009
TPMDC's update on the biggest initiatives on Capitol Hill.
- Health Care: The House Energy and Commerce Committee continues marking up the tri-committee health care bill into this evening. Still no word from the Senate Finance Committee, though we're constantly on the lookout for updates. Meanwhile, the Republican National Committee is marshaling its resources toward killing the bill.
- Nominations: Tomorrow, the Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to decide whether to report Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor out of committee.

We must be moving the center a teeny bit to the left if Republicans feel compelled to pretend to give a rat's patootie about kids.

I'm sure everyone is on the edge of their seats about this one.
I'm incidentally kind of baffled by this whole "Obama experiment" framing the Republicans are taking on health care. Do they actually think this will work anywhere? They're basically trying to tar Obama as willing to try new and risky ideas. Next, will they perhaps attack him for being too popular with 20-to-30 year olds?
