Interesting McCain voted with Cruz and his pal Lindsay Graham with the Yes crowd.

Sanders, Warren, and Frankenstein voting with Cruz and Lee. Politics does make strange bedfellows.

I do find it encouraging both parties were split on the issue. It may be we can move to a new period were automatc lock step party line voting is replaced with coalitions comprised of independent legislators. That would be good for the Republic. I’m also encouraged some on the left apparently fear the imperial presidency.
