34 no votes. check it out.

Particularly noteworthy, this includes 8 Republican no votes:

   Lincoln Chafee (R-RI)
   Susan Collins (R-ME)
   Chuck Hagel (R-NE)
   Richard Lugar (R-IN)
   John McCain (R-AZ)
   Olympia Snowe (R-ME)
   Ben Campbell (R-CO)
   Lamar Alexander (R-TN)

Meaning there's a good chance this piece of shit won't even get a majority.

So if you live in these states, please call these folks and thank them.

(actually, the Democratic senators are worth calling as well; just because they're voting the right way doesn't mean they couldn't also use a little encouragement).
