2) Conversely, others believe that the election in Massachusetts signaled the end of health care reform for the Obama administration.
3) Other experts claim that Obama can still utilize special procedural maneuvers to advance the health care bill. The move, known as budget reconciliation, would allow the bill to move through Congress with simply vote in the Senate. Read more in the New York Times.
4) Are you still confused about the differences between the House and Senate health care reform bills? Check out this breakdown of the health care proposals.
