I just had Newshour on, and he said that the Senate passed Cafta last month?? But right on Cspan's screen they said they were voting on Cafta tonight. ?? I don't get it. But he said it goes to the WH for signature now.

the House voted a version that was slightly different from the Senate, so the Senate had to vote again so that they had the same version.
The final vote was 56-44.

| 6. they just switched to the energy bill |

Cafta, 56-44.
They are allowing three hours tonight to debate the energy bill, to be evenly divided. Maybe that's what Kerry will speak on.
