Play from 0:00[0:00]" Now ABC's George Stephanopoulos. And George reading today in the Washington Post that there's going to be a house vote on Saturday on health care why Saturday and what is the bill."

Play from 0:10[0:10]" Saturday the bill as this they'll put together by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and it costs about one point. 055 trillion dollars -- cover about 96%. All Americans includes a tax increase in the wealthiest Americans and expansion of Medicaid real cuts in Medicare. Democrats still struggling to get the votes. They're not there yet but democratic sources say comedy do you expect to get to -- an eighteen to -- in nineteen they're gonna need. To get -- done by late Saturday that don't waste any time. Well I was gonna say they doing on a Saturday because they're afraid they don't have the votes and their China Berrian on a weekend or -- all no no no no no they're not gonna bring it to a vote if they don't have the votes if anything that looks like they don't have the 218 and then they need I think that is put off the vote. But I think they do want to get this done before. That the veterans day recess which begins on and on Tuesday. And they believe that they don't do that there's not going to be any chance. I'm having the president sign this into law by the end of this year which is already in danger because as you may now. -- Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid is suggest that it's not gonna get done this year it's likely to slip into next year."

Play from 1:13[1:13]" Okay congress hearing the outrage of people who are getting burned George by credit card companies tell us about that vote. I'd say they are in return to their turn to reform the whole credit card system. Okay move to the the elections the other night Democrats are debating now their course of action the GOP gloating saying it's time to reclaim power. -- let's talk about strategies from both camps."

Play from 1:38[1:38]" What you see is. I think it's a real concern on both sides about the economy and Republicans. Come out of this election they're wins in New Jersey and Virginia saying their candidates won because they. They they downplayed social issues and they focused on practices practical solutions on the economy and jobs. I'm taxes. Now Republicans have been hit. In that congressional race up and upstate New York where the conservative candidate pushed out. The Republican nominee left let the Democrats. Grabbed the center so that in their lessons for both parties learn here. What are you talking about this Sunday. We're going to be talking about all this we're gonna have. Former vice president Al Gore we'll get his his reaction to the election results in his new job numbers coming out on Friday how to they impact. His call for climate change legislation -- can have a debate between the two party chairs."
