In a loss by just 2 votes

Two. ...the precise number of Republicans who voted against it -- Voinovich and Lugar.

I'll look at the bright side with the number of Dems that voted for it. Something to be thankful for even though I firmly believe that had we gotten the other two Republicans we would've lost one or two Democrats, who would have then had to face the voters.

Dems play games like that. Making votes close so that some vulnerable Dems can vote with their constituents instead of with the party.
