Mariak had a diary yesterday on the various House Democratic representatives who voted no on Health Care Reform last year, but that had either won their 2008 races by more than 12 points or had won a district that Obama had carried. I wanted to go one further and cross reference to pull out out those who also voted against the Supak Amendment, with the goal beingh to find thre House Dems whose objection was not abortion-related and did not have as much to worry about in November. I'm not sure how good of a metric this is, but below the fold is what I got.
John Adler(N.J. 3) Won race by +4 Obama won district by +5% Had a problem with cost control in House bill
Glenn Nye(Va. 2) Won race by +5 Obama won district byObama +2% Problem with costs to small businesses and cuts to hospitals
Larry Kissell(N.C. 8) Won race by +11 Obama won district by +5%
Betsy Markey(Colo. 4) Won race by +12 McCain won district by +1% Problem with insufficient cost-controls
Suzanne Kosmas(Fla. 24) Won race by +16 McCain won district by +2% Problem with insufficient cost-controls
Allen Boyd(Fla. 2) Won race by +24 McCain won district by +9% Problem with insufficient cost-controls
Michael E. McMahon Won race by +28 McCain won district by +2% Problem with "costs to government, no checks on premium increases, the cuts to Medicare and the costs to small businesses"
Brian Baird(Wash. 3) Won race by +28 Obama won district by +8% Also retiring this year Problem with Premium costs and medicare cuts
Stephanie Herseth Sandlin(S.D.) Won race by +35 McCain won district by +8% Problemwith cost-controls. Likes the Senate bill, though
I haven't determined in each case why they voted no, but if you live in their district, maybe you can give them a call to find out why and tell them why they should be voting yes this time around.
Update - From Kingofspades. Thanks.
Rep. Betsey Markey (D-CO) is open to voting yes.
So is Rep. Scott Murphy (D-NY) is also planning to vote yes.
Retiring Rep. Bart Gordon (D-TN) has not closed the door on it.
Update - From Tomp Thanks
Kissell said ..that he voted against the bill because it would have cut about $399 million from Medicare to find savings.
Against cutting Medicare fraud and Waste?
