NO THEY DIDN'T!!!
Grrr.. this is getting frustrating. There has been NO VOTE on the so-called "Slaughter Solution". This was a preemptive (and not expected to pass) tactic by the GOP to preclude the "Slaughter solution" from even being introduced.
Regardless of how they eventually intend to vote on "Slaughter", members of the majority generally get their hackles up when the minority tries to force rules. The fact that it didn't fail on a nearly straight party-line vote shows how weak the Democrats' position is.
Greetings kevkrom:
Thanks for inserting key facts concerning what the purpose of the vote was, into the thread.
Cheers,
