DADT Vote Scheduled For Today
AmericaBlog reports that the cloture vote on the Defense Authorization Act is now scheduled for noon today. As we know, that could change. [Obviously, it did.] Right now the Senate is voting on the DREAM Act, which passed in the House yesterday. Watch live on C-SPAN.
UPDATE: The Senate has voted to table the DREAM Act until next week by a vote of 59-40.
UPDATE II: I've been bumping this post back to the top of the blog as we keep getting hints that the vote is imminent. Or that it won't happen at all.
UPDATE III: Sen Harry Reid just announced that DADT is effectively DEAD. "We can't win because the rules keep getting changed."
UPDATE IV: And THEN we follow up that doom with an actual vote on Reid's motion to end debate on cloture!
UPDATE V: The live stream is concluded (for now).
