Schumer, Bernie and Elizabeth Warren were elated!
Congrats to all our Democratic leaders!

(10,533 posts)3. Interesting. Watch Schumer as McCain votes and Dems start to applaud
He turns around and waves them off as if to say, be quiet. I wonder if he did that to make it easier for McCain, or if others had yet to vote and he was saying "don't count our chickens yet".

was all set to burst into applause but his smug expression immediately disappeared once McCain did his thumbs-down. Quite a sight!!!!
