This gives us a feel of the (poor) state of Pro Life sentiment in the Senate.

Right.

I'll venture to guess that Bob Casey-D from PA voted with Ben Nelson, but I can't think of any other democrats.

I’m as pro life as it gets, but I would have voted against the amendment. The only reason obamacare passed the house was because of the Stupak amendment. Pelosi played the pro lifers like a violin, using them to get the cover she needed to pass the bill

Even if the Nelson amendment passed, it would be taken out in conference, the same way Stupak will. The most prolife vote in this instance is to vote against the amendment and take Obamacare down in the process (IMHO)
