The Senate has voted cloture, closing debate on the nomination of Judge Samuel Alito. The final vote was 72-25, giving rest to the notion of the seriousness with which the MSM treated this Kerry-Kennedy-Hillary tantrum. They now look as foolish as the desperate Dems who put on the show for the special interests.
Everyone but some in the MSM knew that this filibuster would go nowhere.
Break this down:
Republicans: 53-0 (2 not voting)
Democrats: 19-24 (1 not voting)
Jeffords: 0-1 (1 clueless)
Now that Alito will be confirmed on the morrow, the country is sure to return to the days when renegade drunk U.S. Senators drove off of bridges with victimized young ladies.
