Quote[The Dodd/Feingold Amendment 3907 to strip retroactive immunity from the underlying SSCI bill just failed, 31-67. 51 votes were needed to pass.
Voting with the Republicans were the following eighteen Democrats (again, rough count):
Bayh, Inouye, Johnson, Landrieu, McCaskill, Ben Nelson, Bill Nelson, Stabenow, Feinstein, Kohl, Pryor, Rockefeller, Salazar, Carper, Mikulski, Conrad, Webb, and Lincoln. Joe Lieberman also voted against stripping retroactive immunity.
Not present and voting was Senator Hillary Clinton, the only presidential candidate serving in the Senate to miss the vote.]
Gee, isn't this interesting? Wasn't this senator trying to portray Obama's lack of votes in the Illinois senate as a bad thing??? (Despite the fact that he had good reason in most cases).
