My Way News - Democrats Fail to Pass Anti-War Bill

My Way News - Democrats Fail to Pass Anti-War Bill: "WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate rejected legislation Friday that would have ordered most U.S. troops home from Iraq in nine months, culminating a losing week for Democrats who failed to push through any anti-war proposal. The vote, 47-47, fell 13 votes short of the 60 needed to pass." [emphasis added] Let's be real clear here. The vote failed. It failed short of the 51 votes required, not just the 60 votes needed for cloture.
