Big developments in the Senate today; the DREAM Act has been killed by nativist Republicans, but the repeal of DADT is going to pass today when the final vote is taken at 3 pm ET.

The overwhelming majority of Republicans voted to continue denying rights to gays and immigrants, which should come as no surprise.

UPDATE at 12/18/10 12:32:25 pm:

That’s it! DADT is dead. Final vote 65-31.
