The big vote will be the cloture vote and they are signaling there intent.
With 53 Democrats and two independents expected to back the measure, four Republicans
John McCain of Arizona, Susan Collins of Maine, Jeff Flake of Arizona and Richard
Burr of North Carolina said that they would vote to cut off debate on the budget,

Several additional GOP senators signaled Friday that they may also vote to advance
the deal, including Sens. Bob Corker of Tennessee, Lisa Murkowksi of Alaska and
John Hoeven of North Dakota, giving proponents new confidence that a messy and
acrimonious first session of the 113th Congress appears close to ending just before Christmas

It is unbelieveable ....this GOP will close its eyes at the suffering of the American people in the hope that their pain will move them to vote for the GOP. WORTHLESS.
