As health care reform seems at the final stage, here's a refresher of the 37 House Democrats who opposed their chamber's bill last fall. They are prime targets for Democratic leadership, who need to switch several of them in order to secure the bill's final passage.

Jason Altmire (D-PA)
Brian Baird (D-WA)
John Barrow (D-GA)
John Boccieri (D-OH)
Dan Boren (D-OK)
Rick Boucher (D-VA)
Allen Boyd (D-FL)
Bobby Bright (D-AL)
Ben Chandler (D-KY)
Travis Childers (D-MS)
Artur Davis (D-MS)
Lincoln Davis (D-TN)
Chet Edwards (D-TX)
Bart Gordon (D-TN)
Tim Holden (D-PA)
Larry Kissell (D-NC)
