VB Dems

The Senate overcame a Republican filibuster of the jobs bill (that mostly consisted of business tax cuts) 62-30 along party lines, with only 1 Democrat voting against it and only 5 Republicans voting for cloture.

Update: The bill passed the Senate 70-28 (8 of the Republicans who voted against cloture flip-flopped and voted in favor of the bill).
