At some point this evening, Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown (D) will be the 60th and final vote in favor of the Porkulus.
The vote is being held open while President Obama sends a private jet to pick him up in Ohio, where he has been attending his recently deceased mother’s viewing, and brings him back to cast a ballot for the $800 billion bill neither Brown nor anybody else in Congress has had a chance to read.
Is anybody missing Mike DeWine right about now?

bk (Diary) Friday, February 13th at 9:59PM EST (link)And didn’t the Dems always whine about the GOP keeping votes open too long?
Jeff.....a question.
The_Rebel (Diary) Friday, February 13th at 10:14PM EST (link)If Brown did not make it to Washington due to an accident, for example, how long could they hold up this bill?
The vote's supposed to end at 10:30.
Moe Lane (Diary) Friday, February 13th at 10:18PM EST (link)I’m going to guess, based on the general level of competence shown by the Democrats throughout this escapade, that Brown will show up at 10:43, rush into the chamber, and spend five minutes trying to figure out why the button isn’t working before somebody brings him over to the right seat.

DONTREADONME (Diary) Friday, February 13th at 10:38PM EST (link)is he probably will use his mother as the reason for getting back to cast this vote in this all important and unknown bill.
Reminds me of the Texas Senate
