BREAKIG: Some late breaking somewhat sensitive news affecting the scramble for the tax vote.

Tweeting shortly. Follow if interested.
Vote count on tax bill just got interesting w/ Senator McCain hospitalized now, Collins up in the air & short window before Jones is sat.2/
Word is Pence is planning to cancel international travel next week because he now thinks is vote may be needed.3/
If this is right, it means McConnell is concerned about having only 50 votes. If Corker votes no & McCain can’t vote, focus goes 2 Collins.4
Time is the other factor. The sooner the new Alabama senator is sat, the quicker the will of the Alabama voter will be heard. 5/
The GOP political reality is that post 2018 AL race, the prospects for accomplishing much next year is low. They view their window as now.6/
Defeating the tax bill is an uphill battle, but it means any Senator can change it, there is no room for time to slip, AL voters must be ignored & Collins must accept a promise that can't be kept.

And that's what they're planning to do unless they're stopped./end
