Healthcare, The 1st Cloture Motion Passes, 60-39

FDL has the liveblog.

That and £3.00 will get you a Starbucks.

Some notes:

• It now requires 60 votes to accept an amendment to strip out the public option.
• This was just a vote to go to debate so there will be more cloture votes.
• The bill is pretty sucky.
