This vote will determine what the next two years will be like in this country.
And it's up to two Senators. Not sure which two, but two could change things for the better or for the worst.

Who will decide our fate?

No pressure.

4. When this fails they'll move on to the Schumer amendment -
that one calls for extension of cuts up to $1 million income.

(aside) Snow is a "No".

6. Scott Brown...
that pick-up drivin' man is a "no." So, besides the vote on extending tax cuts to families making under 250k he has once again voted against extending Unemployment Benefits for a year. Twice in one week! What a pal.

The Baucus Amendment has failed and it's (apparently) on to the Schumer amendment.
