So what, one Republican voted for the health care bill? One vote does not make the bill bipartisan. For more views of the news- http://www.newsy.com/videos/lone_republican_votes_for_health_care_reform I'm sure this will have more negative impact on his career as a politician, but at least he's being true to his constituents and his own beliefs.
