ok so why did she vote for cloture on the bill if she knew it was so damaging? She could have kept if from coming to the Senate floor iirc.

It’s her friggin’ job.

She needs to go and Maine needs someone to represent Maine.

Probably no one who voted for the law actually read it.

I believe that's right. She had her opportunity to vote against cloture back in 2010, but failed to do so, along with several other senators who really should have displayed better sense at the time.
