McCain demands that Senate return to regular order. Votes against Senate returning to regular order.

"The Congress must now return to regular order, hold hearings, receive input from members of both parties, and heed the recommendations of our nation's governors so that we can produce a bill that finally provides Americans with access to quality and affordable health care."

This afternoon Democrats made a motion to do exactly that—send the health care bill to committee so that both parties could work together on it through regular Senate process rather than continuing this mish-mash of nonsense and misdirection McCain so “eloquently” spoke out against less than 24 hours ago. Guess which way John McCain voted.

Yep. He voted against it.
