Will the GOP implode or get more hysterical? Hysterical? Yes. Did you see the GOP members on the floor after the vote on the health care bill? It is not flaming to call their rants and raves, hysterical.
GOP effort to derail health bill falling short

WASHINGTON — Senate Republicans waged a last-ditch battle late Wednesday to derail the last element of an overhaul of the nation's health-care system. But as night fell, the GOP was making little headway, and Democrats predicted they were just hours away from pushing the measure to final passage.
Republicans offered dozens of amendments — a package of "fixes" to the bill President Obama signed into law Tuesday — with a goal of forcing it back to the House for another vote. Each proposal was easily rejected, although a series of votes, dubbed the "Vote-a-rama," was expected to last deep into the night.
