2. Ben Nelson voted against it....

3. Doesn't matter.
It takes 60 votes to approve this sucker. He can vote however he wants. As long as Senator "Comb-over" votes for cloture on the final bill, it's all good.

5. But is it an omen?
Or is he yanking the WH's chain?

Y'all do realize that when we get to the Nelson part of this thing our current in-fighting will look like a game of Old Maid. lol

Shew ..... I hope I have to work that day. :)
