No offense, but are you sure? I thought once there are 60 votes to end debate that all the following votes (the Senate bill and then the Conference Committee’s final bill) only required simple majorities?

No, even the rat bastard traitor Ben Nelson had this to say:

"If there are material changes in that conference report different from this bill that adversely affect the agreement, I reserve the right to vote against the next cloture vote. Let me repeat it. I reserve the right to vote against the next cloture vote if there are material changes to this agreement in the conference report. And I will vote against it, if that is the case."
