The Senate fell short one vote today to break the Republican filibuster and pass a much-needed stimulus package. Hillary and Obama took a detour from the heated campaign trail to cast their votes-- but guess who didn't show up? Sen. "The Economy Isn't My Strong Suit" McCain.
Harry Reid had this to say:
“It is incredible that not even nine Republicans would join us to strengthen our weakening economy by helping those who need it most. When given the opportunity to work in a bipartisan manner to help people hurt by our struggling economy, Republicans chose politics first. And while they may view this vote as a win, the American people lose.”
