Default Re: How Many Senators Would Have Voted Otherwise?

[ QUOTE ]
While everyone is making a big deal about how the issue was brought to a vote, I think it is important to know what the vote would have been if the internet bill stood alone. My impression is that it would still have passed easily. Am I right? If so that is important to know.

Important why? Because it would justify not taking any action prior to the Senate vote, since the provision's passage was inevitable?

Nice rabbit hunting.

No. It is like asking to see an uncalled hand after a river bet. Impolite at the table but quite appropriate when you pay the salary of the person whose hand it is, as if you are bankrolling them.
