I assume they’re both on the campaign trail. Personally I think they had an obligation to be there, as all Senate Iran votes are taking place over a 3 day period (today thru Thursday).
There was a 60 vote threshold for the vote so it was far from close, but still if only 1 of the 3 Republicans who didn’t vote did, we wouldn’t be looking at an ugly 3 in the tens column.
I agree. This is an important vote to be ‘on the record’ for. This Iran deal is critical and, perhaps, deadly. We’ll be wasting more blood and treasure to fix it in the near future.
The Clinton/Obama foreign policy failures don’t bode well for the deal.
