I am a little burnt from watching the Senate hearing on S.1. I am both encouraged and disappointed. But I am getting a sense that this bill is almost to the point of being dead as it is written. I saw 18 billion get added in an amendment and 244 million dropped. At that rate this package would be 3 trillion before long. The 18 billion was 13 billion additional for highways and 5 billion for water treatment. I am encouraged by the passion conservative arguments presented and even my two Senators seem to vote the right way. I will see how much of this I can get through tomorrow, right now I need to rest.
