Over 50 against cloture. You think that means it will stay dead?

A lot of these rare birds are lawyers and in the law there’s something called ‘collateral estoppel’ (or `issue preclusion’) that basically says, you get only “one bite at the apple”.
The OBLs have had two bites now, but knowing these folks as we do, they prolly think it’s just restin’.
Remember this, and punish the amnesty supporters at the polls.

It is probably over until the next time it is brought up. When that might happen is hard to say. Our next goal should be to elect more conservatives to the House and Senate, and retake the White House.
