“So, to be clear. A vote for Cloture would allow Reid to move to fund Obozocare within the CR?”
Correct. Because Harry Reid already has an amendment filed which will be voted on after cloture which will strip the defunding language. And that will require only a majority (John McCain and Susan Collins will probably vote for it so their pals the democrats can say it was “bipartisan”)
Thanx guys...calling John RINO Cornyn now.
OK, other scenario -
if cloture isn’t passed,
it requires 60 votes to amend the house bill?
And that will require only a majority (John McCain and Susan Collins will probably vote for it so their pals the democrats can say it was bipartisan)
Or provide cover for Prior,Landreiu,Begitch and Hagan.
