Strict Party Line

The Senate health committee approved a massive health care overhaul bill in a party-line 13-10 vote Wednesday morning, a major step in the push to create a government run health insurance plan.

"It actually will penalize Americans who have insurance today who are happy with their doctors," said Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.). "We're headed in the wrong direction, and unfortunately there are only two numbers you need to remember, and that's 13 and 10" the number of Democrats who voted for and Republicans who voted against the bill.
