Sen. Bob Menendez, "we have 97-98percent of democrats...l - Page 5

62 or 61 Yay is my prediction.

Wait, so if it does pass, then that's it? No more voting?

And if it doesn't pass, when will it come again for a vote?

If we get 60, it goes on to the debate and they may or may not change stuff in the bill.

If it fails then it may come to vote the same week or next week, not sure.

I doubt that we have 97-98% of Democrats supporting DA. If this were true, we wouldn't be needing 4-5 Republicans, would we? We would only need 2 Republican supporters. My guess is that Sen. Menendez just poorly converted into percentages the proportion of Democratic DA supporters.

I think he is right. Reid would not have brought up if we did not have 60.

anybody else go to church this past sunday?

Why? Was there an event for DREAM?

why can't people understand that you don't need to have the votes in the bag before you bring it up? sometimes people bring up a bill in order to make a statement or a political move..

dude u are way 2 serious lol i ment 2 prey for a passage of the DA!

True, but its obselete to bring it up when you know it won't pass. They can do a test vote.
