The House vote on Speaker Boehner’s plan scheduled for tonight has been postponed indefinitely. Read: He didn’t have the votes to pass it.

Late word from Cantor’s office is that they will still try for a vote this evening, possibly around 7 p.m. ET. But clearly they’re buying more time to whip up a few more votes to make sure they can pass it.

Peering into the fog of the run-up to this House vote this evening, it’s actually not clear Speaker Boehner has the votes to get his debt plan through the chamber. The operating assumption most of today has been that he’ll find the votes one way or the other. And that may still bear out. But it’s not a certainty.
