RE:”While essentially true, please remember they had 2 other “Independents” caucus with them giving them 53 members of their “caucus”.

Just looked it up and I WAS RIGHT, they had 49 Dems and 2 independents = 51. And Cheney made it a tie.

This is far from the 'clear majority' that EoL claims they had.

sorry, Cheney made it 51 Dems to 50 Rs not a exact tie but an effective one given they need 60 to pass almost anything.

Sorry... my bad... 49 + 2 made 51. Not 51 + 2 = 53. My apologies.
