Compare this vote for cloture to last year and this can be seen how big a deal this is. Bush getting majority support in the senate is amazing in this environment.

Right. So if the nuclear threat is all it takes, then we win. Results count. If we get votes on all seven, that's the bottom line.

All 12, but yes.

Reid can't put anything on the back burner!!!

This is what I'm saying: the 14 think they run the Senate but they are, "wrong...wrong!"

Why are they even taking this vote? 14 Senators rule the Senate. Everyone else should just pack their bags and go home.

Please.

This vote is to end the filibuster on Owen and it needs at least 60 votes. They have voted on it time and again before and now it is about to happen. Cheer up.

Stabenow-no

Speaking of which, has Kerry voted yet, or did he forget to get his allowance from his wife?

I believe enough Dems will chainge their vote to allow cloture by 61-39 or thereabouts.
