I want to make sure the people listening to the Senator-- because he is such an expert on what goes on around here--understand this and make sure I understand it too. The Senator is saying that when 1 a.m. this morning comes, we will have a vote to determine whether we can stop debating the Reid amendment and actually vote on it. But if we don't get the 60 votes to do that, what will have happened is they will have stalled us, but the Reid amendment is still pending. We can't get a vote on that if the Republicans filibuster it and keep talking and talking and don't let us get to a vote; is that correct?
