Since when was it the Presidents job to deliver votes?
I thought it was a politicians job to ensure the legislation was good and accurate, not just deliver votes.
"We hope to reach a bipartisan consensus in time for this afternoon's meeting at the White House, so Sen. McCain and President Bush can finally get to work on the job they've neglected thus far: delivering Republican votes," said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y.

The problem, and why there is a delay etc.. is that the Dem's don't want to pass a bill that has only their name on it - why you ask?

Because they know it's a f'd up piece of paper, and they want to be able to say they Rep's made them do it.

Can all of them.
