I think Murkowski also voted yes.

On the positive side, today was probably the last day of relevance for Snow, Collins, and Brown. With the alignment of the new Senate, republicans will not need them to sustain a filibuster and the democrats will not be able to use them to invoke cloture. They will have no value to either party and no record of loyalty to fall back on. They will be allowed to labor in obscurity without the ability to deliver special favors to the voters of their states.

She did vote for cloture. Scott Brown is done, he wont get a nickle from out of state Republicans like he did before and the democrats in Mass will tear him up. Good riddance. Meanwhile, Maine just took a sharp turn to the right only leaving behind their congressional delegation. Good riddance to which ever Senator is up for reelection in 2012.
