Does anybody have any idea what the hell is going on with this? They are taking the 2nd cloture vote in two days, and it's going to fail yet again. I saw Rockefeller speech yesterday after the vote, and pissed is a major understanding to describe his reaction. But I was not able to follow anything today until a short while ago. The vote now (so far at least) seems 100% along party lines. So, does anybody have any idea what's the subtext of all this maneuvering? Rockefeller yesterday was talking about calls from the WH asking all repubs to vote against cloture, and then Bond also talked and claimed that no such thing happened and that he was deeply offended. Anyway, I have to get back to work now, but if anybody has any idea, it would be appreciated. By the way, I just heard "Snowe - aye", I think the only vote against party line (and I think they are close to done).
