This is a vote to reconsider the failed motion to move to the vote on Millett. I believe it requires a simple majority..so it will pass..they will then move to the vote to take up the nomination, which requires 60 votes..it should fail again...then, before Reid can go nuclear, McConnell may move to adjourn again..this will get ugly very soon...

It's a recommitment vote....
Harry Reid wants to change the rules of the filibuster...(60 needed now, he wants 51).....the Republicans generally don't want to
