Update: Obama didn't make healthcare comments during the press conference, rather he saved his comments for the announcement that followed the press conference. He announced $500 million of stimulus funding for community health centers to offer better services and $88 million to migrate medical records from paper to digital.

Update 12:41 pm: he didn't take questions cause he's got another announcement on community health centers.
I'll post video when it's up. Obama made no comment on healthcare and he took no questions from the press. He mostly reiterated what he talked about yesterday and says TARP is winding down. He says he's willing to work with anyone (republicans) who's willing to work on solutions.
Update: It's 12:15 pm. Still waiting. Maybe they're celebrating with egg nog.
Following a meeting with democrats and republicans, Obama is expected to speak to the press at 11:50 am eastern. Obama could talk about the new healthcare compromise.
