That indeed may be true...but I saw the analysis of which Senators are up for re-election...and the only slam-dunk the Democrat Party has is the seat in Maine...whose Senator voted for this stuff anyway. Yeah, I don't like losing that seat, but I do hope that maybe the Democrats will lose more than they gain on this one.
Personally, I'm far more worried about losing control of the House. If the Democrats chose to, they could already go "nuclear" in the senate.

I think his game plan all along was to get "ammunition" for 2014 so he can say that Republicans are unwilling to make changes necessary to protect our schools. A battle may have been won but it's going to be a fierce war leading up to 2014.
