The Dems finally showed enough support for our President, that the repubs cannot cancel our support for the multinational treaty with Iran.
Comments
I wonder if we'll have to suffer the charade of forcing Obama to veto the bill. Six more senators still needed to uphold a filibuster.

With approximately ten still undecided, it's quite likely a veto won't be necessary. And the Cruz, Trump and Beck "rally" may just seal the deal!

You are right. I really did not ponder that fact!
And like Missy says, we still have many Dems who have yet to declare!
Good point. A chance to really embarrass the repubs!
Not that this coalition of countries to achieve a goal is not golden.

Good news!

This really is good news.
Another feather in My President's hat.
But like Mike W and Missy notes, a good number of Dems who decide to decide in favor of a multinational treaty with the evil empire of Iran, could shut down the damn attack by repubs by forbidding a vote in the first place!

And it's done, with one vote to spare. History.

Yes, very good news and along with his lightening up on Cuba makes two foreign policy moves that will likely stand out in coming years as his most significant. While the Cuba move was years overdue the Iran deal might well have come barely in time.

Lulu, I still think that this new relationship with Cuba, if it can last, will be something that historians will write about in the 22nd century.
THIS IS A BIG DEAL.

It is a big deal for the people of Florida. I think it will have a positive impact on the next election. I already told Mike W. that.

You're right as usual.
The Republicans arguments are
o 15 years from now the Iranians could do something which they could do right now
o We're giving the Iranians a chance to trade with the rest of the world. That's bad?
o Yeah there are peaceful Iranians but the hard liners are in charge. More or less true but the deal will help the non hard liners.
o The Iranians behaved badly when they imprisoned our embassy. True. And we behaved worse when Kermit Roosevelt managed the coup to remove Mosaddegh.
