It’s been worked on for a year! It’s the GOP way to say more time needed. Along with a filibuster to stop debate.



“I think that the Democrats will not get cloture, but that’s the first vote,” he said, adding that a deal could be reached if lawmakers reach a deal. But he said that the GOP would continue to block debate until both sides agree on the language.

“I think in the next few days, weeks we’ll get it done, maybe even tomorrow we can get it together,”
Dodd said.

So a few days or weeks from an agreement, it’s spontaneously time to stop working on it and bring it to the floor for a vote? Give me a break…

You can’t all be that naive. It’s a smart ploy by the Democrats, don’t get me wrong. But you swallowed the bait, hook, line, and sinker.
