    If Harry Reid voted NO (unverified) it would signal that as a key sponsor of the bill, he is willing to delay CLOTURE till later today.

    This is good for our team because it means Reid can't get the bill through at this time and needs more time to maneuver.

    Also, time favors our side because each hour and day that passes, public support for this piece of crap bill declines. It is down beneath 23% from 26% last week.

    The more time and attention, the less likely it is to pass.

    CYA

    It's beginning to look like this entire exercise has been a CYA effort.

    Now the blurb is: "Senate fails to limit debate"

    Well, that confuses me. Why did he allow the cloture vote at all then?

    Why not just wait until later?
    It's like hell vomited and the Bush administration appeared.

    William, you're right. During his closing statement, he even said that he would change his vote. Evidently, he decided to do just that.

    I could be wrong but, I don't think they are going to insist on moving this bill forward.

    Now the 'blurp' on tv says:
    Senate votes to block immigration bill.
    Final approval of comprehensive deal in doubt.
