Iraq Retreat Fails!

The cloture vote on the amendment to begin the retreat from Iraq, which needed 60 votes to proceed, did not pass. It ended up at 52-47; full vote results here.

Missouri/Kansas Senators voting for victory: Bond, Brownback, Roberts
Missouri/Kansas Senator voting for retreat and surrender: McCaskill

The good news - the Senate has so far failed to legislate defeat out of the victorious hands of our troops!

There's my two cents.
