Rep. Brian Baird (D-Wash.) stressed Sunday that the votes of retiring Dems such as himself aren't necessarily in the bag.
Appearing
across from Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Rep.
Chris Van Hollen (Md.) on CNN's "State of the Union," Baird heartily
agreed in principle with the need to reform healthcare but expressed
reservations about the current bills. He responded "yes" when host
Candy Crowley asked if he would vote against the current proposals even
if it meant that healthcare reform went down.
