We probably won’t get 41 if McConnell and Cornyn don’t weasal out, because all they need is McCain, Graham, Collins, Corker, and Alexander, and probably also have Murkowski. Hatch just got back so he has nothing to worry about, but everyone else might be released to vote against cloture for political cover (i.e. Coburn, Chambliss, Ikkason, etc).
The good news, however, is if this gets to 30+ Senators, that should be enough to put pressure on the House Leadership and strengthen the Tea Party conservatives there from backing down when they get the crap bill back from Reid. That’s info for Gohmert to use.
Good observation.
It’s hard for a lot of us to know the intricacies involved here, sounds like the House can still act on this. Good.
Thank you, thank you, for that information! I appreciate it very much.
I don’t think Coburn backs down, as he is not running again and is leaving by laying this on our back.
God be with us tomorrow.
