pssst..... Reid never had the votes. Did you read the vote count ?? And why did he want a vote............because he WANTED the Republicans to vote it down.
Reading comprehension is a wonderful thing...........you should try it sometime.
These three Dems, as well as the two that voted against cloture, were against the bill as it was presented, after Reid made the minimal changes to it. FIVE Dems were against this political theater posing as a bill.
whatever, gill. 63% of americans want this bill passed, so republicans are being obstructionist and are NOT representing their constituency.
