Yes. Depending on the results of the 2014 election, I expect this might come back for another on vote sometime later this year, perhaps between Christmas and New Years.

No matter what the outcome of the election it will come back during the lame duck sessions at the end of the year.

There’s still a lot of stuff that will come up in a lame duck session that will be subject to the standard 60-vote filibuster. If the Senate flips GOP with a lot of inbound Tea Party aligned Senators, and McConnell survives reelection, self preservation of his leadership position will provide the backbone and IMHO he’ll play hardball with any attempt to run through a slate of nominees.
