Sheets Byrd was a party to the cave.

What's surprising is that Hitlery voted to end cloture. Guess Reid is on his way out as Senate "Minority" Leader.

To show comity, which someone forgot to tell Jeffords who voted nay. It's a facade; a total waste of time but that's what we've grown to expect.

This is a vote to agree to stop debating and vote on Owens. At this point I don't see any dem voting no.

Ooops WRONG Jefford jumped again to a NO.One other one whose name I didn't catch. Total no's so far = 2.

This vote is to end the filibuster on Owen.

The dems are mostly voting aye because they can read the writing on the wall, at least on this judge.

They all basically agreed to invoke cloture on Owens. They're voting "aye" to do so.
