Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid just triggered a sigh of relief among the hallowed population of members, staffers and reporters on Capitol Hill.

“I ask unanimous consent that all post cloture time be expired at 8 am Thursday,” Reid said.

That may sound like gobbledeegook, but in Senate-ese, it means that the final vote on health care will be held at 8 a.m. on Christmas day. You can follow all the action here at TPMDC.
