This is a devastating number for the rats base to swallow. This high a number for cloture will be seen as an abandonment of the far left of the rat party. The DU'ers type rat have lost big time.

Nope, again ... Dirty Harry agreed to give Owens a pass for an up or down vote .. 81-19 has nothing to do with the reality of the final margin .. that's why Cheney is waiting in the wings .. to break a 50-50 tie if it happens.

Time for your nap. There is no reason for your snotty tone when addressing an argument you disagree with that does have a basis other than "just because".
