Senator Ben Nelson (D-NE), on whether he’ll vote for cloture on Obamacare:
“I have made no promise. I can’t decide about the procedural vote until I see the underlying bill. It would be, I think, reckless to say I’ll support the procedure without knowing what the underlying bill consists of.”
(on CNN’s State of the Union.)

A vote FOR Cloture is a vote FOR the bill! If this bill proceeds past the Cloture Vote it is because the Senator failed to stop it when he had the opportunity to stop it. He should be voted out of office if this bill passes regardless of his vote on the final bill.

The knuckle draggers back home are too stupid to see that, of which he is well aware. All they will see is his no vote on the bill itself.
Most of his constituents think a cloture is some kind of nocturnal animal.
